Waterfalls & Black Sand Beaches

Prepare for an exclusive adventure designed just for your group! Discover the dramatic beauty of Iceland’s world-famous South Coast on this unforgettable private day tour with Moonwalker. Journey along the stunning coastline, where powerful waterfalls plunge from ancient cliffs and mystical black volcanic sands meet the wild Atlantic Ocean, expertly guided by our team of local experts in a capable Land Rover Defender.

Your Private Adventure Vehicle: The Land Rover Defender

On this South Coast Adventure, your private transport is a classic Moonwalker Land Rover Defender. Known for its rugged capability and iconic design, the Defender is your perfect companion for exploring Iceland’s varied landscapes. It provides a sense of adventure and the assurance of a capable vehicle, even on the main routes, adding an extra layer of character to your private journey.

Chase Cascades: Seljalandsfoss & Skógafoss

Your private adventure begins as we drive south from Reykjavik along Route 1 in your private Defender, quickly entering a landscape of striking contrasts. Your dedicated guide will lead you to the iconic Seljalandsfoss waterfall. Feel the refreshing spray as you follow the pathway behind the cascading water – a truly unique and immersive perspective that makes for incredible photos.

Continuing east, you’ll arrive at the mighty Skógafoss. This impressive waterfall is known for its sheer power and the massive volume of water that drops 60 meters (nearly 200 feet). Climb the steps alongside the falls for a breathtaking view, or simply stand at its base and feel its thunderous energy.

Step onto the Dramatic Black Sands of Reynisfjara

Next, your private expedition takes you to one of Iceland’s most famous and dramatic locations: Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach. Walk along the smooth, black volcanic pebbles and sand, a stark contrast to the white foam of the powerful waves. Gaze up at the striking hexagonal basalt columns and admire the Reynisdrangar sea stacks rising dramatically from the ocean – steeped in local folklore. Experience the raw power of the Atlantic here, guided by an expert who prioritizes your safety near the unpredictable waves.

A Landscape Framed by Glaciers

Throughout your private day tour in the Defender, you’ll be treated to breathtaking views of the surrounding landscapes, often framed by the distant, majestic glaciers, including the infamous Eyjafjallajökull volcano glacier and parts of the vast Mýrdalsjökull. You may also catch sights of the Gígjökull glacier outlet depending on your route and visibility – a constant reminder of the powerful ice and fire shaping this land.
