North Iceland Small Group Tour Showcases Eyjafjord, Godafoss, and Lake Myvatn
Travelers arriving at Akureyri Port are being offered a guided small-group excursion through some of North Iceland’s most iconic natural and geothermal landscapes. The tour is conducted in a comfortable minibus and follows the scenic Eyjafjord, Iceland’s longest fjord, offering sweeping coastal and mountain views along the route.
The first major highlight is Godafoss Waterfall, famously known as the “Waterfall of the Gods,” where powerful glacial waters cascade over a wide rocky horseshoe formation. Guests are given time to stop, take photographs, and learn about the waterfall’s historical and geological significance from an experienced local guide.
The journey continues into the Lake Myvatn region, an area shaped by ancient volcanic activity and known for its striking geological diversity. Visitors explore the Hverir geothermal fields with their bubbling mud pools and steaming vents, as well as the dramatic lava formations of Dimmuborgir, often referred to as the “Dark Castles.”
Optional stops include relaxation at the Myvatn Nature Baths or a visit to the Grjótagjá cave, located along a rift between tectonic plates. With flexible pacing and expert commentary throughout, the tour combines natural wonders, geothermal activity, and cultural insight into a comprehensive Icelandic experience.

Customer Reviews
Goðafoss is one of the most famous waterfalls in Iceland for a good reason. It is wide and powerful and you can get incredibly photogenic shots from every angle. The waterfall is very easy to reach with parking available on both sides of the river.
One of the most known and popular waterfalls in Iceland, part of Diamond Circle day tour from Akureyri. Easily reachable from Akureyri, some 35 min drive if you go via paid tunnel. Its on Ring Road and there is all the infrastructure, shops here. Free parking. Name “Waterfall of gods” comes from the fact that pagan idols were cast into the river here after Iceland adopted Christianity in 1000 AD.
Nice waterfall. The west bank parking had less people but east bank offered better views and a way to get down to the water. There's a walking bridge that connects the different sides of the falls. The path and parking lots are very handicap accessible. There's no drone and camping signs posted, but there were many drones flying.
