About this experience
Are you ready for an extraordinary adventure? Join us on our South Coast tour, where you'll be immersed in a world of breathtaking beauty at every turn.
As we travel south, we'll see stunning glaciers, farmlands, and volcanoes on one side, and the beautiful shimmer of the Westman Islands on the other.
We'll visit the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall. If the weather is good, we can walk behind the water and feel its power. We'll also see Gljúfrabúi, depending on the weather. Next, we'll go to Skógarfoss, a huge waterfall that drops 60 meters.
Then, we'll reach Vík í Mýrdal, a popular town, where we'll stop for lunch. After that, we'll visit the black sand beaches of Reynisfjara and enjoy the unique scenery.
We'll follow the Viking Trail along the coast to Sólheimajökull glacier, where we’ll get close to the ice and enjoy the view before heading back to Reykjavik. Glacier hikes are not included.
You'll enjoy this day of exploring in a small group, traveling comfortably in a minibus.
