What Can I See on a One-Day Private Tour from Reykjavík?

A one-day private tour from Reykjavík can take you to some of Iceland’s most iconic natural wonders—without the rush of group travel.

With a custom itinerary and your own guide, you’re free to focus on what matters most to you, whether it's waterfalls, volcanoes, coastal cliffs, or geothermal baths. The flexibility is perfect for travelers arriving from the UK, US, or Europe who may have limited time but want an authentic experience.

Here are top private day tour options from Reykjavík:

1. Golden Circle (Most Popular):
See Thingvellir National Park, the erupting Geysir hot spring, and the majestic Gullfoss waterfall—all within a 6–8 hour round trip. Add-on options include Fontana Spa, a local tomato farm, or a detour to Kerið volcanic crater. Explore our Golden Circle Private Tour for full details.

2. South Coast Highlights:
In a longer 10–11 hour loop, you can reach Seljalandsfoss, Skógafoss, black sand beaches of Reynisfjara, and even get a glimpse of the Sólheimajökull glacier. It's a powerful day packed with drama and contrast. Check our South Coast Tour to see what's possible.

3. Reykjavík to Blue Lagoon + Reykjanes Peninsula:
For a more relaxed pace, soak in the Blue Lagoon and explore the lava fields, lighthouses, and geothermal springs of Reykjanes Peninsula. It’s an ideal choice after arrival or before departure. Learn more on our Blue Lagoon Tour, or pair it with an airport transfer.

These day tours can be fully customized. Want a food stop, a hidden waterfall, or just to skip the touristy bits? We plan around you—not the crowd.
