What to expect
Daily departures throughout the year, starting from 1 person, with multiple language and time options available, and the option to include a pick-up and drop-off package! After all tourists have gathered, we will head east, joining Route 1 (also known as the Ring Road). Along the way, we will drive close to the coastline, and may encounter windy weather, especially at Reynisfjara Beach. Please prepare clothing according to the weather conditions. Depending on the weather on the day, the order of visiting attractions may vary. Skógafoss waterfall is 60 meters high, cascading down from the Skógá River. It was originally part of a sea cliff, but as the coastline receded, it left this spectacular vertical waterfall. Mist or water spray often forms near the waterfall, and beautiful rainbows appear when the sun is shining. If you want to challenge yourself, you can climb the 527 steps to admire the panoramic view from the top. Along the way, there are also several small waterfalls, and it is the starting point of the Fimmvörðuháls trail, a 22-kilometer route to the Icelandic highlands of Thorsmörk. Reynisfjara Beach is one of Iceland's most famous attractions, with a mysterious natural atmosphere. The power of lava and the sea converge, forming basalt columns, huge dome caves, and the famous black sand beach. The seawater here is turbulent, so be sure to follow the guide's instructions and avoid approaching potentially dangerous waves. Vík village is the southernmost village in Iceland, where you can admire the Reynisdrangar sea stacks, the black sand beach, and beautiful panoramic views. This is our lunch stop. Next, we will head to Sólheimajökull Glacier, a glacier tongue radiating from Mýrdalsjökull Glacier. Due to glacier retreat, the parking lot here is no longer close to the glacier itself, and it is about a 15-minute walk to reach the edge of the glacier. The trail passes a huge glacial lake, with meltwater from the glacier, and ice blocks occasionally collapse into the lake, forming a spectacular sight. The last stop is Seljalandsfoss waterfall, one of Iceland's most iconic waterfalls, 60 meters high, with a relatively gentle flow. You can walk behind the waterfall for a unique perspective, and although you will get wet from the mist, this is also a highlight. After visiting the waterfall, we will return to Reykjavik city center. The vehicle will take you back to the location where you boarded in the morning.
