Overview

This is the perfect Golden Circle self drive combo tour.

Nature lovers shouldn't miss this unique opportunity to experience the extreme cold and extreme heat Iceland can offer!

Start your day with an exciting snorkeling adventure in the glacial water that fills the Silfra tectonic crack and then warm up in one of the original geothermal baths of the country.

On this self-driving tour we will take you snorkeling between the continents in century-old, crystal clear glacial water. For about 30-45 minutes you will float between two continents and observe the fascinating rock formations and mesmerizing colors the 100m+ visibility can offer.

After the snorkeling tour, you will drive for about 30 minutes to reach the famous Laugarvatn Fontana Geothermal Pool. This is a renovated natural pool that offers the whole geothermal experience, including saunas, steam rooms and a geothermal lake where the most adventurous are welcome to take a dip.
