Day 2 was our Golden Circle and Fontana Steambath tour, also with RE.  Our guide was good, but not as good as the City Tour guide, still a great day.  RE does a good job of keeping people moving, and this is coming from someone who doesn’t normally enjoy big bus tours.  We went to Fakasel, a horse farm, for a “coffee break”, then it was Gulfoss, Geysir, Fontana Steambath and Thingvellir.  The stop at Fontana was long, probably because we didn’t feel like going in the water.  If I had it to do again, I would have tried to switch to just a GC tour (this tour was included with our package).
