5 day – Snaefellsnes, South Coast and Northern Lights

This tour will take you to the Snaefellsnes peninsula, Golden Circle, and the magnificent South Coast of Iceland. 4 nights of accommodation with breakfast included as well as an Ice Cave tour.

Day 1: Deildartunguhver Hot Spring Iceland

This tour will start from your hotel or other pick-up location you chose. We'll drive through the beautiful West Coast scenery until we reach Deildartunguhver, the most powerful hot spring in Europe. This hot spring is used to provide heating and hot water to the neighboring areas. Another exciting stop – Sturlureykir horse farm where you can see the famous Icelandic Horses and learn a little more about farming in Iceland. 

Our next stop will be at Hraunfossar and Burnafoss Waterfalls that flow from Langjokull Glacier. We'll end our first day at Gerðuberg, a cluster of basalt columns.

Day 2: Snaefellsnes Peninsula Iceland

After we've had our breakfast, the tour will continue to the western part of Snaefellsnes. We'll stop by at the charming village of Arnarstapi. Then you'll get a chance to wander through Vatnhellir Cave that lies beneath Snaefellsnes National Park.

We'll have our lunch at the Hellnar village before we reach impressive Djúpalónssandur Beach.

Day 3: The Golden Circle

Golden Circle is at the center of our agenda this day. We'll visit Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with a complex geological environment. We'll also have a look at the largest lake in Iceland, Thingvallavatn.

Our next stop will be at the incredible Gullfoss, the Golden Waterfall. Then we'll continue down the Rind Road to Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls.

Day 4: Ice Caving and Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon

We continue our journey towards Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach. In Skaftafell National park you will meet our certified glacier guides and embark on a glacier hiking and ice caving tour on Falljökull. Ice Caves are only found during the wintertime when the glacial rivers retract and the water freezes and they can look completely different every year. 

Day 5: The South Coast Iceland

We will start early today. On the way back to Reykjavik, really close to Vík we will find Reynisfjara, the famous black sand beach, which is also famous for its basalt columns, called Reynisdrangar. If the conditions are right you can expect a visit to Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon. There are a lot of amazing places on the south coast so we will make some additional stops today before making our way back to the city.

At each step of our journey, we'll have many chances to witness the mesmerizing northern lights.
