Glacier Lagoon Scenic Express from Djúpivogur

This full-day tour from Djúpivogur is specially designed for cruise guests who want to explore the raw and unforgettable beauty of southeast Iceland. It’s a well-paced adventure that combines some of the country’s most iconic natural landmarks with hidden scenic gems.

Your journey begins with a visit to Vestrahorn, a dramatic mountain on the coast surrounded by black sand dunes and shallow tidal flats. This lesser-known location is a favorite among photographers and nature lovers for its moody atmosphere and unique landscape. You’ll have the chance to walk along the shoreline and take in the ever-changing views shaped by the ocean and wind.

Next, we travel to the world-famous Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon. Here, enormous icebergs—broken off from the nearby Breiðamerkurjökull glacier—float peacefully across the glacial waters. The lagoon is a surreal, almost otherworldly sight, and its stillness is captivating. Just across the road, you’ll discover Diamond Beach, where chunks of ice wash ashore and glisten like crystals against the black volcanic sand.

On the return drive, we make a final scenic stop at Eystrahorn, one of the easternmost mountains in Iceland. Known for its sharp ridges and panoramic views of the Atlantic coastline, this spot offers another stunning contrast of Iceland’s diverse landscapes.

This tour includes some of the best sights in South Iceland—true highlights that shouldn’t be missed during your visit. Whether you’re standing beside a drifting iceberg or watching waves crash on a black-sand beach, every moment offers a chance to connect with the island’s untamed nature. Join us for an unforgettable experience that captures the spirit of Iceland in just one day.
