Arctic Adventures - The tour begins with a pick-up in Reykjavik.
Seljalandsfoss - Seljalandsfoss is a stunning waterfall in South Iceland, featuring a 60-meter (197 ft) drop. Its uniqueness lies in the ability for visitors to walk behind the falls into a small cave, offering a breathtaking 360° view. The water source is the Eyjafjallajökull glacier volcano.
Skogafoss - Skógafoss ranks among Iceland’s largest waterfalls, measuring 25 meters (82 feet) in width and dropping 60 meters (197 feet). Situated on the Skógá River in southern Iceland, a staircase leads to the top, providing a view of the roaring cascade. Legend has it that the first Viking settler, Þrasi Þórólfsson, hid a treasure in a cave behind the waterfall.
Reynisfjara Beach - Reynisfjara is a globally renowned black sand beach on Iceland’s South Coast, famous for its striking basalt columns, the Reynisdrangar sea stacks, and the powerful Atlantic waves.
Wool Gallery Vik i Myrdal - The journey passes through the quaint town of Vík en route to the accommodation.
Skaftafell National Park - Skaftafell, a nature reserve within Vatnajökull National Park in southeast Iceland, is celebrated for its varied landscapes, including glaciers like Skaftafellsjökull and Svínafellsjökull, dramatic waterfalls such as Svartifoss, and hiking trails that highlight Iceland’s natural beauty. Once a standalone national park, it now forms part of the larger Vatnajökull National Park, drawing visitors with its outdoor activities and stunning scenery.
Volcano Eyjafjallajokull - Eyjafjallajökull is an Icelandic stratovolcano topped with an ice cap, best known for its 2010 eruption that significantly disrupted European air travel due to its ash cloud.
Solheimajokull Glacier - Sólheimajökull is an outlet glacier extending from the larger Mýrdalsjökull ice cap in Southern Iceland. Its accessibility makes it a favored spot for guided glacier hikes and ice climbing. Notably, it is a “climate glacier” that visibly reacts to climate change, with a rapidly retreating ice front.
South Coast, Jokusarlon, Reykjavik
Jokulsarlon - Jökulsárlón is a breathtaking glacial lagoon in southeast Iceland, famous for its floating icebergs that calve from the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier. This dynamic and ever-evolving landscape, where ancient ice drifts towards the sea, offers a spectacular view.
Diamond Beach Jokulsarlon - Diamond Beach, located on Iceland’s south coast, is a remarkable black sand beach where icebergs from the nearby Jökulsárlón glacial lagoon wash ashore.
Myrdalsjokull Glacier - In the summer, guided tours provide a unique opportunity to explore the Katla Ice Cave within the Mýrdalsjökull glacier in Iceland. This adventure allows visitors to see the stunning blue ice formations and learn about the volcanic activity of Katla beneath the ice cap.
Vatnajokull National Park - During winter, visitors can explore the magnificent Crystal Ice Cave within Vatnajökull National Park. This seasonal wonder offers a chance to see the beautiful blue ice formations created by glacial meltwater, providing a unique and unforgettable experience.

- This tour has the flexibility to make the most of the seasonal changes such as changes in weather and conditions. During the summer Iceland is characterized by energizing bright nights and midnight sun. Between August and May, if the forecast is suitable, you might even be able to spot the magical show put on by the Northern Lights. It is important to note that a guided Northern Lights hunt is however not included in the tour. Other wonderful and interesting possibilities can also come up during your south coast tour with us as Iceland is full of surprises.
- We use a couple of different ice caves for our 2 day South Coast tour. Ice caves are ever-changing and unpredictable natural phenomena. We usually visit the Crystal Cave at Breiðmerkurjökull during this tour but when the Crystal Cave is inaccessible we will most likely visit Katla Ice Cave. Which ice cave is chosen will however always depend upon the conditions and safety considerations on the day, sometimes a different ice cave will be visited. If conditions do not allow us to visit an ice cave a glacier hike will be offered as an alternative.
