Discover Iceland’s South Coast at a comfortable pace on a two-day private tour from Reykjavík.
Travel with your own professional driver-guide through waterfalls, black sand beaches, coastal viewpoints, volcanic landscapes and glacier scenery. Compared with a one-day journey, this extended tour provides more time at each destination and the opportunity to add an adventure activity near Vík.
On the first day, explore the main South Coast attractions before continuing through the Eldhraun lava fields to an overnight stay near Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon. On the second day, visit the glacier lagoon and Diamond Beach, with the option to join an Amphibian or Zodiac boat tour, before returning through Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon and the western South Coast.

Enjoy scenic views of lava fields, mountains, and coastal landscapes as you head toward the South Coast. Your guide will share fascinating stories about Iceland's nature, history, and culture throughout the journey.
Make a short stop in Hvolsvöllur for coffee, refreshments and access to facilities before continuing along the South Coast.
Visit Skógafoss, a powerful waterfall dropping approximately 60 metres from Iceland’s former sea cliffs. Walk close to the waterfall or climb the staircase for panoramic views from above.
Enjoy panoramic views over the South Coast, Reynisfjara and the surrounding black sand coastline. Puffins may sometimes be seen here during the summer season.
Access may depend on weather, road conditions and seasonal restrictions.
Explore Reynisfjara, famous for its black volcanic sand, basalt columns and Reynisdrangar sea stacks.
Visitors must remain well away from the ocean because the waves can be unpredictable and dangerous.
Stop in Vík, Iceland’s southernmost village. Visit the hilltop church viewpoint and enjoy views over the village, coastline and surrounding mountains.
Depending on the selected booking option and availability, choose one of the following activities:
The activity is not included in the base tour price and must be booked separately as an optional add-on.
Continue through Eldhraun, one of Iceland’s largest historic lava fields, covered by extensive layers of green moss.
Stay overnight in the Southeast Iceland area near Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon.
Accommodation is not included in the base tour price unless specifically included in the selected booking option.
Begin the day at Jökulsárlón, where icebergs break away from Breiðamerkurjökull Glacier and drift across the lagoon toward the ocean.
Walk along the shoreline and enjoy the constantly changing glacier landscape.
During the operating season, join an Amphibian or Zodiac boat tour among the icebergs of Jökulsárlón.
The boat tour is not included in the base tour price and can be added separately during booking, subject to seasonal operation and availability.
Visit Diamond Beach, where pieces of glacial ice wash ashore and create a striking contrast against the black volcanic sand.
The amount and size of the ice vary naturally according to tides, weather and glacier conditions.
Stop at Fjaðrárgljúfur, a dramatic canyon shaped by flowing water over thousands of years. Walk to the viewpoints overlooking its winding cliffs and river.
Access may depend on weather and seasonal trail restrictions.
Visit Seljalandsfoss on the return journey. When trail and weather conditions allow, visitors can walk behind the falling water.
Finish the sightseeing route at Gljúfrabúi, a hidden waterfall located inside a narrow canyon near Seljalandsfoss. Access inside may be wet and slippery.
