Iceland is famous for its hot springs due to the volcanic activity taking place beneath its surface. The next destination on the tour is the hot spring capital of Iceland, Geysir. Everyone who has been here will tell you what a marvel Strokkur is. An active hot spring, it erupts like clockwork every 4 to 10 minutes, sending a jet of hot water over 20 meters into the air.
