Join us on an unforgettable journey along Iceland’s spectacular South Coast, where dramatic landscapes and natural wonders await at every turn. Our first stop is the majestic Seljalandsfoss waterfall, where you can walk behind the cascading waters for a one-of-a-kind view. Nearby, hidden within a narrow canyon, lies Gljúfrabúi, a secret waterfall that offers a magical experience for those willing to seek it out.
Continuing the adventure, we visit Skógafoss, one of Iceland’s largest and most breathtaking waterfalls. Its thundering curtain of water drops 60 meters into a serene pool, often accompanied by shimmering rainbows on sunny days. The journey then takes us to Vík í Mýrdal, a charming coastal village surrounded by incredible scenery, before exploring the world-famous Reynisfjara black sand beach. With its volcanic sands, striking basalt columns, and crashing Atlantic waves, it is one of Iceland’s most extraordinary sights.
This area is known for its huge part in the Icelandic Sagas, featuring in the classic Njálssaga, The Story of Burnt Njáll. (If Iceland’s myths and legends intrigue you, please also check out our Reykjavik Folklore Tour).
Our final highlight is the impressive Sólheimajökull glacier, a magnificent ice tongue extending from the larger Mýrdalsjökull glacier. Standing before this natural wonder offers a glimpse into the ever-changing world of Iceland’s glaciers. Please note that glacier hikes are not included in this tour. Throughout the day, our experienced guides will share fascinating stories about Iceland’s history, folklore, and geology, enriching your journey and making every stop truly unforgettable.
