Private Glacier Lagoon & Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik
Overview
Travel from Reykjavik to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach in one long private day, with the South Coast's best waterfalls along the way. Ideal for travelers who want to see the icebergs without an overnight stay.
After an early pickup, stop at Seljalandsfoss and Gljúfrabúi, Skógafoss and Reynisfjara black sand beach. Continue east to watch icebergs drift across Jökulsárlón, then walk among ice pieces on Diamond Beach before the drive back.
Expect 14 to 16 hours, with about ten hours of driving. In winter much of the drive is in darkness. Your driver-guide adjusts stops to weather, roads and daylight, and adds Kvernufoss or Dyrhólaey when time allows. Meals are paid locally.
