Discover Iceland’s South Coast: Two Days of Waterfalls, Glaciers & Adventure

Walk behind a roaring waterfall, hike across a glacier, cruise among floating icebergs, and watch ice sparkle on black sand. This small-group, two-day adventure brings together the South Coast’s most spectacular sights—with a guide leading the way and an overnight hotel stay so you can enjoy the journey.

Day 1: Chasing Waterfalls & Walking on Ice

Your adventure begins with pickup from your hotel or a nearby bus stop in Reykjavik. Settle in as the city gives way to dramatic mountains, sweeping coastlines, and scenery that feels like another world.

First up is Seljalandsfoss, where a path behind the waterfall offers an unforgettable perspective when conditions allow. Discover the tucked-away beauty of Gljufrabui, feel the power of Skogafoss, and explore the striking volcanic shoreline of Reynisfjara schwarzer Sandstrand. Along the way, your knowledgeable guide will share the stories behind these extraordinary landscapes.

Then it’s time to step onto the ice! At Solheimajokull-gletscher, a professional glacier guide will provide the equipment and lead you on an exhilarating hike through a world shaped by ice. It’s your chance to experience Iceland’s wild beauty up close.

After a day packed with discoveries, unwind at a hotel somewhere between Vik and Hofn, depending on availability, and recharge for another unforgettable day.

Day 2: Icebergs, Diamond Beach & Dramatic Canyons

Today brings you to Jokulsarlon-Gletscherlagune, where icebergs drift through the water beneath the vast Icelandic sky. Climb aboard an amphibian boat tour and experience this remarkable landscape from the lagoon itself.

Nearby, explore Diamantstrand, where pieces of glacial ice wash onto black volcanic sand. In the sunlight, they glitter like scattered jewels—a spectacular sight and a photographer’s dream.

Your adventure continues with stops at the Eldhraun Lavafelder, the Bridge of the Volcanoes, und Fjadrargljufur River Canyon, each revealing another side of Iceland’s extraordinary landscape. Depending on your hotel location, the Bridge of the Volcanoes stop may take place on day one.

Then enjoy the scenic journey back to Reykjavik, passing through Vik once more, with an extra stop to explore if time allows.
