Description
Discover Iceland’s South Coast on a private day tour. See Skógafoss, Kvernufoss, Sólheimajökull Glacier, and Reynisfjara Beach. Enjoy a cozy lunch stop in Vik with views of the Atlantic Ocean.
Embark on a private adventure along Iceland’s iconic South Coast. Explore cinematic landscapes, capture your best moments, and feel the heartbeat of Iceland in every view.
Begin your journey with a visit to the majestic Skógafoss waterfall. Feel the mist on your face as you stand in awe of this powerful cascade. Then, discover the hidden gem of Kvernufoss, where you can walk behind the curtain of water for a unique perspective.
Next, stand before the mighty Sólheimajökull Glacier, an outlet glacier of the Mýrdalsjökull ice cap. Marvel at the ancient ice, over a thousand years old, and imagine the adventures that await those who explore its glowing blue crevasses.
Continue to Dyrhólaey, a promontory formed by volcanic eruptions about 100,000 years ago. In summer, spot adorable puffins nesting here, with Atlantic waves and rainbows creating the perfect photo backdrop.
Wander the black sands of Reynisfjara Beach, one of Iceland’s most famous beaches. Admire the basalt columns, said to be trolls turned to stone by sunlight, and beware of the powerful sneaker waves.
End your day with a cozy lunch stop in Vik, Iceland’s southernmost village. Enjoy views of the Atlantic Ocean and the dramatic scenery, including the Reynisdrangar basalt sea stacks, which have appeared in films like Noah and Star Wars: Rogue One.
