Iceland Wild South Coast Small-Group Tour From Reykjavik
Driving Iceland’s South Coast yourself means navigating changeable weather and long distances between stops. Round-trip transport from Reykjavik lets you take in the scenery, with time to see Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls up close, view the Sólheimajökull Glacier, and stroll the black sands of Reynisfjara beach in a small group.
Highlights
- ✓Explore Iceland's rugged south coast in just one day from Reykjavik
- ✓See the Solheimajokull Glacier, towering waterfalls, and black sand beaches
- ✓Enjoy a more relaxed day with fewer people on a small-group tour
- ✓Leave the driving to someone else with hotel pickup and drop-off included
What you'll see & do
- ✓Admire this wonderful waterfall. The scale of it is incredibly impressive, especially considering the amount of spray rising as the water smashes against the rocks below. You can walk as close to the waterfall as you dare.
- ✓At Dyrhólaey, you'll witness breathtaking panoramic views of Iceland's black sand beaches and dramatic coastline framed by an iconic rock arch, while during summer, you can observe adorable nesting puffins.
- ✓This stretch of coastline is renowned for its beauty, eeriness, and dramatic geology. Another very photogenic place with many hexagonal basalt columns. In summer, you may spot puffins up on the cliffs.
- ✓Stop for a meal in Iceland’s southernmost village, Vík í Mýrdal, where you can enjoy delicious lamb soup or the famous black dough pizza (no included in price)
- ✓This fascinating glacier tongue stretches from the greater ice cap Myrdalsjokull, which covers the volcano Katla, the eruptions of which are even bigger than Eyjafjallajokull's. It is about 15 min walk from the parking lot to a good viewpoint to admire the glacier.
- ✓This falls, which is over sixty metres tall, tumbles from a cliff that curves inwards; this means when there is no ice on the ground you can walk behind it, allowing for some excellent photographs.
What's included
- ✓Tour exclusively on a minibus
- ✓Pickup and drop-off from designated bus stops & hotels
- ✓Live commentary on board
- ✓Professional local driver-guide
What's not included
- ✓Food and drinks
