Itinerary

Cave Tubing in Pingvellir
- Pick-up from hotel in Reykjavik.
- Drive to Thingvellir, the most historical place in Iceland.

It's known for the Alþing (Althing), the site of Iceland's parliament from the 10th to 18th centuries. On the site are the Þingvellir Church and the ruins of old stone shelters. The park sits in a rift valley caused by the separation of 2 tectonic plates, with rocky cliffs and fissures like the huge Almannagjá fault.
- Next, head to the lava cave, which is only 5 minutes away.
- After the caving experience, return to Reykjavik.
