Join us for a memorable trip along Iceland’s stunning South Coast, where every turn brings something new to see. We’ll pass through sweeping lava fields, towering mountains, and icy glaciers as we make our way to the southern tip of the country. Along the way, you’ll get to walk behind the beautiful Seljalandsfoss waterfall, feel the power of Skógafoss, and explore the black sands of Reynisfjara, home to striking basalt cliffs, dramatic sea stacks, and plenty of seabirds. We’ll end the journey at the incredible Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon, where shimmering icebergs drift through the water in shades of blue and white. Price is per vehicle.

Stops on this tour:

✓ Seljalandsfoss – Seljalandsfoss, where the river Seljalandsá plunges 60 meters over ancient coastal cliffs. One unique feature of this waterfall is the opportunity to walk behind it, offering a truly immersive experience. Just 500 meters to the northwest lies another hidden gem, Gljúfrabúi, a stunning waterfall well worth the walk.

✓ Skógafoss – Stand in awe of Skógafoss, one of the country's largest waterfalls, boasting an impressive width of 25 meters and a breathtaking drop of 60 meters. On sunny days, the abundant spray from the waterfall often creates a single or double rainbow.

✓ Reynisfjara: The Famous Black Beach –  a black pebble beach adorned with striking basalt column cliffs. Gaze out to sea and witness the basalt sea stacks known as Reynisdrangar. This area is rich in birdlife, including the beloved puffins, fulmars, and guillemots.

✓ Jökulsárlón: – a glacial lake situated on the edge of Vatnajökull National Park. As the glacier receded from the Atlantic Ocean's edge, the lake was formed, now positioned 1.5 kilometers away from the ocean and covering an area of approximately 18 km2. With depths exceeding 248 meters, it holds the distinction of being Iceland's deepest lake and is considered one of the country's natural wonders.
