Description

Discover Iceland’s dramatic south coast on a full-day adventure from Reykjavík, where you’ll experience thundering waterfalls, black sand beaches, and a thrilling glacier hike. This small-group tour is led by an expert English-speaking guide and includes convenient pick-up and drop-off in Reykjavík.

Begin your journey with a visit to the iconic Skógafoss waterfall, famous for its powerful 60-meter drop and appearances in popular TV shows. Your guide will share local legends and stories, adding depth to the stunning scenery. Next, marvel at the surreal basalt columns and Reynisdrangar rock formations on the legendary Reynisfjara black sand beach, often ranked among the world’s most beautiful.

The highlight of your day awaits at Sólheimajökull glacier, where you’ll gear up with provided safety equipment for an unforgettable guided glacier hike. Spend about 1.5 hours exploring the icy landscape, learning about Iceland’s unique geology and perhaps tasting some of the purest water on Earth.
