I'd seen a lot, but I'd never seen a geyser. That changed on our Golden Circle tour. Strokkur is a very active geyser, who sprays a mighty jet into the air every few minutes.

Cool place. Someone said that the downside is nearby restaurant but that was actually so much appreciated in cold weather. Enjoyed the geysers and enjoyed the hot soup after.

We were there mid September and it wasn't crowded at all. The geyser erupts regularly and it's really impressive! You'll have to accept te scent but the visit is totally worth it.
