Tour Iceland's geothermal geology and infrastructure with a geologist guide

This is a unique and truly educational (and fun!) opportunity to travel with a local geoscientist! Learn about geothermal processes and the local infrastructure that benefits from the boiling waters beneath our feet in this bespoke tour with a geologist tour guide. You will see all the nearby highlights that tell the story of Iceland's amazing harnessing of geothermal power and the local hydrothermal systems that give it energy. Accompanying you will be a local geoscientist who has worked in geothermal exploration. Are you ready to go beyond a Big Bus tour, and have a truly one-of-a-kind experience?

Please note

    This is an "easy" tour, our most mobility friendly in fact, with limited walking and private driving to-and-fro. That said, there will still be some walking around some uneven surfaces and sitting in a car. 

    What to bring

      Travelers should wear warm, waterproof layers that they can add or subtract as the go along the day, at both indoor and outdoor attractions. Weather-proof boots are always a good idea in Iceland, too, although this tour will be the least likely to need rugged footwear. We also encourage guests to bring their own snacks and water, if needed throughout the day.
