Is it just for a bit when you start up cold? or does it idle high all the time?
If its just when cold starting your Idle control valve probably needs a good clean out, they gunk up bad and cause high idle.
If its all the time again it could be ICV but a vacuum leak will also cause high idle.
Other possibly is someone has frigged with the throttle body settings.
there is a bypass screw that will bump up the idle but it should be sealed from the factory. _________________ 1974 1303 Germanlook Suba-Beetle

Also check the obvious easy option, how's your throttle cable tension? Mine has to be pretty slack otherwise it'll hold the revs up and give a fast idle.
Check it with the cable disconnected. _________________ Think......
