Overview
Set out on a private journey from Reykjavík or the Keflavík area to explore Iceland’s south coast in comfort and at your own pace. The experience is designed to feel smooth and unhurried, allowing you to take in the landscapes along the way.
Stops include the iconic waterfalls Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, both around 60 meters high, where you can experience their raw power up close. You’ll then continue to Sólheimajökull glacier, located between the volcanoes Eyjafjallajökull and Katla, where ice, ash, and rugged terrain meet.
The journey continues to the famous black sand beach, known for its basalt columns and powerful sneaker waves. Nearby, you’ll visit the coastal village of Vík í Mýrdal, one of Iceland’s most recognizable small towns, before beginning the return journey.
This private tour offers a comfortable and flexible way to experience the south coast, combining natural highlights with a more considered pace throughout the day.
