While this tour is designed to offer the best possible viewing experience, please note that clear skies cannot be guaranteed for Solar Eclipse Day. Like the northern lights, this rare celestial event depends on natural conditions beyond our control. Every effort will be made to provide an unforgettable experience and itineraries may be adjusted accordingly.

Conclude your journey with the iconic Golden Circle route. Witness the power of Gullfoss waterfall and the erupting hot springs of Geysir.
