What to expect

On this day trip, you'll discover some of Iceland's most beautiful nature, from black sand beaches to impressive and enchanting waterfalls. The scenic region of the south coast is one of the flattest regions of Iceland, and where most of all grain farming takes place. The high mountains shield the area from the harshest winds from the north.

The stops along this tour include the gorgeous Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. You can even walk behind Seljalandsfoss waterfall, so make sure to bring a raincoat! Skógafoss, another famous Icelandic waterfall, has been featured in the films Thor: The Dark World and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.

Up next is Reynisfjara black sand beach, with the Reynisdrangar rock formations and columnar basalt. The beach is one of the most spectacular and beautiful beaches in Iceland, but can be dangerous so do not go too close to the waves. You will also visit Sólheimajökull and walk up to a small lake which has formed by the retreating glacier.

During this tour you will visit:

  • Lava Centre
  • Solheimajokull
  • Vik
  • Reynisfjara
  • Skogafoss
  • Seljalandsfoss

If you want to escape the city and see a bit more of Iceland, this trip is ideal. It introduces you to the country's south coast, where thundering waterfalls, snow-topped volcanoes and a stark coastline lie ready and waiting.You'll make a couple of stops at the area's biggest waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss, where you'll have enough time to take some photos. Eyjafjallajökull is part of the line-up, too.The volcano that erupted back in 2010 is a picture of serenity these days, sleeping soundly beneath a huge sheet of ice and snow. The real highlight of the day, though, is Vik. This huge beach is covered in black pebbles, and boasts weird and wonderful basalt rock formations.
