Gullfoss is just 10 minutes from Geysir, one of the other stops on the Golden Cirlce tour outside of Reykjavik. The falls is a two-step staircase and then the river drops off into a deep crevice and away from view. Gullfoss can easily be visited on a day tour of the Golden Circle from Reykjavik or via self drive (our preference). We loved our tour of the Golden Circle:
