The Golden Circle by Range Rover, with Bread Baked in the Ground

A private Golden Circle with an English-speaking guide, in a 4x4 Range Rover, collected from your hotel, the port or an Airbnb and returned to the same place. Þingvellir first, where the cracks in the ground are the plates pulling apart, with clear lakes and volcanic terrain between them. At the Geysir field in Haukadalur is the oldest known geyser in the world. Lunch is at the Geysir Glima nearby. Gullfoss comes off Langjökull, the second-largest glacier in Iceland, and there are several viewpoints over it. The stop most people remember is the geothermal bakery at Laugarvatn. The bread is baked in the ground by the lake, using the heat that is already there, with local ingredients and traditional methods, and visitors watch it come out. Kerið is the last one: a crater lake 3,000 years old, blue water inside dark lava rock, with a path round the rim. Because the booking is private, extra stops can be added along the way, and there is time for a proper break.
