Round-trip transport on a comfortable, fully heated coach is included.Start your day with a pickup from your Reykjavik hotel, or make your own way to the prearranged meeting point to join up with your expert guide. Hop aboard your comfortable coach, and set off on a scenic journey through southern Iceland’s rugged terrain. As you travel, listen to your guide talk about the popular Game of Thrones TV series, adapted from George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire novels.
After approximately 40 minutes on the road, arrive at the UNESCO-listed Thingvellir National Park. Hop out of your coach at the gorge of Thingvellir, the stomping ground of the White Walkers and the trail that the savage Wildlings took across the north, to the Wall. Marvel at the fissure in the earth's crust where the European and American tectonic plates slowly drift apart, and take in the expansive Icelandic landscape that stretches around you.
Next, enjoy a brief stop for refreshments (own expense) before continuing on to Nesjavellir, the second largest geothermal power station in the country. While the location hasn’t been featured in Game of Thrones, the site is a highlight on any tour of southern Iceland as it is set amid the breathtaking landscape of Lake Thingvallavatn, Iceland’s largest natural lake. Take a moment to stretch your legs and breathe in the fresh air and stunning scenery.
Then, head to Thjorsárdalur valley. Step out of the coach onto the site where a peaceful farming village was attacked by Wildlings under Tormund and the cannibalistic Thenns. As you explore the area on foot, be reminded of this bloody massacre.
Your tour then concludes back in Reykjavik with a drop-off at the original start point. On route, you’ll also see some of the awe-inspiring scenery that was featured in The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.
