Blue Lagoon: Located in very close proximity to Keflavik is one of Iceland’s main tourist attractions. The Blue Lagoon is a highly popular destination for visitors to Iceland. Mineral-rich hot water from beneath the earth forms the spectacular lagoon, where a luxurious health spa has been developed in the rugged landscape. The lagoon’s geothermal seawater is known to have positive effects on the skin, and a trip to Iceland would be incomplete without visiting this amazing destination.
Reykjavík: The capital and largest city of Iceland can be reached in around 45 minutes by car. As home to the vast majority of the country’s inhabitants, Reykjavik is the centre of culture and life of the Icelandic people — as well as being the focal point of tourism in Iceland. Although the city is small, there is plenty to see and do here in terms of culture, arts and activities. The National Museum of Iceland, the Reykjavik Art Museum, the 101 Gallery and the Museum of Hafnarfjördur are all worth a visit. The city is also graced with fabulous architecture such as the awe-inspiring Hallgrímskirkja church which dominates the skyline.
Thingvellir National Park: Situated on the Northern Shore of Lake Thingvellir stands the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Thingvellir. A place of huge historical significance and national importance, the oldest existing parliament in the world first assembled here in 930AD. The area is also protected as a national park due to the unique geology and natural features found in this region. This extraordinary landscape can be reached in around 70 minutes when driving from Keflavik.
