Description
The first part of this tour is devoted to the viewing of landscape and nature skillfully crafted by elements.
The first stop is Haukadalur area, the home of the great Geyser and other hot springs among them the reliable Strokkur geyser that erupts with 3 to 7 minutes intervals, spouting hot water up as high as 15-30m.
The magnificent Gullfoss is not far away and you will enjoy the sight of it cascading down the white colored Hvítá River.
After enjoying these jewels of Icelandic nature it is time to experience Iceland’s geothermal power in another way with a visit to Laugarvatn Fontana spa with its natural steam baths and open air hot pools.
Relaxing at this fountain of wellness will surely stir up our appetite so we continue to nourish our bodies with a dinner at the local restaurant Lindin, known for its delicious chocolate mousse.
After a delicious dinner made from ingredients from Icelandic nature we start our search for the spectacular phenomena that is the Aurora Borealis. As we make our way back to Reykjavik always on the lookout for those mysterious lights of the winter sky!
How are the northern lights formed?
The aurora borealis are created when charged particles are flung off the surface of the sun, travel to Earth, and get funneled down to the poles along magnetic field lines. The particles collide with molecules in our atmosphere, transferring energy and making the air molecules glow like a neon sign.
