OUR MISSION
Pink Iceland strives to be the country’s foremost travel agent, tour operator, event and wedding planner for LGBTQI travelers. Our goal is to always offer an exemplary service, treating our guests with the utmost respect while offering a good quality product.
Pink Iceland has clear policies regarding its responsibilities to environmental and humanitarian issues. These are reflected in the services on offer and the general attitude of the company’s owners and staff.
Pink Iceland is, and will remain a beautiful, vibrant, fun and caring place of work where both owners and staff ambitiously work towards offering outstanding services to its guests
HONESTY POLICY
Pink Iceland is a privately owned company and as such it needs to make a profit. This profit pays the salaries of its staff, the rent, the wonderful and informative Pink Iceland website not to mention copious amounts of coffee for the owners. Most of Pink Iceland's money is made through commissions. This is how it works: If our guests let us book their tours, activities, and accommodation we collect a small (usually 10-15%) commission of the price. This basically means that you pay the same price, regardless of whether you book directly - or through us. You may think this might cause us to recommend really expensive accommodation and tours. Not so. We promise to do our utmost to come up with a plan that suits you, and your budget. We would never recommend anything without full confidence and/or personal experience of what's on offer. Our primary goal is working with and for the LGBTQI community and without the community's support or goodwill we wouldn't have lasted six months in the business. It is not least through word of mouth that we grow stronger every day. Our hope is that after reading this you too will ask for our recommendations and advice and/or book your holiday through us.
HUMAN RIGHTS
Pink Iceland is founded on the belief that more can be done to welcome LGBTQI visitors to Iceland. We strive to to offer the best available services to our guests, working with suppliers who respect and adhere to human and civil rights.
We at Pink Iceland have committed ourselves to contributing to LGBTQI communities around the world in whatever way we can. This has been done with monetary donations, education about what we've achieved in this country and how we went about it and through on-going volunteer work for Samtökin'78 the national LGBTQI organization in Iceland as well as Reykjavik Pride Week where we offer our time and expertise for various events and causes. We constantly revise our policies, processes and activities and actively work towards implementing these. Our human rights commitments may often go unnoticed but when applicable we update our audience about the work we undertake through our social media outlets and website.

OUR REPUTATION IS OUR MARKETING
THE BI-MONTHLY GAY GOLDEN CIRCLE & THE SECRET LAGOON TOUR
Visit Gullfoss Waterfall, Geysir and Thingvellir National Park with a glorious geothermal dip.
The BI-MONTHLY GAY GOLDEN CIRCLE & SECRET LAGOON is a fabulous day out with fellow LGBTQI+ people, a wonderful guide, spectacular landscapes followed by a couple of drinks and getting to know each other better for those who want at the end of the tour.
Your Golden Circle journey will begin or end by treading in the footsteps of the Vikings at Thingvellir National park. You’ll walk through the gorges, that are being torn apart as the tectonic plates rip away from each other and if you listen closely, you just might hear the echos of the vikings deliberating at this UNESCO world heritage site of the first parliament in the world.
The renowned Geysir geothermal area is not to be missed as you’ll walk the path through boiling ground, but be on your guard as the geyser Strokkur will erupt when you least expect it. Be careful, this place is hot hot hot!

Every other Friday - See calendar below
Duration: 7-8 hours
Pick up: 10:00AM from Pink Iceland Office
Price: 15.900 ISK per person

Awesome guide, pickup and drop off from the Pink Iceland office, towel and entrance to the The Secret Lagoon.

The majestic waterfall Gullfoss is widely considered to be one of the most beautiful in the world. It was so cherished by the locals in the countryside that the local woman Sigríður Tómasdóttir often walked all the way to Reykjavik to try and prevent it from being harnessed for electricity. This was in the early 20th century, before they had built roads in the area.
We’ll enjoy a local lunch at Efstidalur farm, where the same family has lived since 1850 or Friðheimar tomato farm, where you will dine inside their greenhouse. If the light is about to leave us, which happens often in the winter, we stop for a quick lunch at Geysir area. Please note that lunch is not included in the price unless you book the VI-Queen Extra which not only buys you lunch but includes bottomless mimosas throughout the day, and a drink ticket for Kiki Queer Club!
To unwind after an eventful day we’ll take you to The Secret Lagoon, the oldest pool in Iceland, which is in the town of Flúðir. What's its secret? We can’t tell you, it’s a secret! You’ll have the opportunity to relax in the hot geothermal water which is bubbling up from the ground.
Traveling with Pink Iceland gives you the unique opportunity for flexibility, so if something catches your eye, we’ll stop to take a look.
Add the VI-Queen package for Bottomless Mimosa throughout the day and lunch included!
