We suddenly weren't able to rent a car, so I searched for a way to visit the places we had originally planned to see and found this! At first, I was worried about whether the bus would actually come, so we arrived at the meeting point 30 minutes before the scheduled time. The bus arrived a bit late, and they called out names so we could board. It wasn't full and there were plenty of empty seats, so we were able to spread out and relax! I slept through most of the travel time. When we arrived at each destination, we were told what time to be back, and off we went! The stops were generally set to about 30 to 45 minutes. Of course, we felt short on time at a few places, but since we could use the restroom, this was probably the best timing overall. We were told that food purchased at tourist spots could not be brought onto the bus. Well, everyone secretly snuck food in and ate it anyway, haha. Since driving to Diamond Beach requires a very long distance, being able to sleep on the way made me really glad I chose this tour.

I took three day trips from Reykjavik and it is my favorite one. You will have the opportunity to see some of the most iconic sights in Iceland, such as Skogarfoss and Reynisfjara Beach. Highly recommended!

Our tour guide, Swede (I’m not entirely sure about the spelling, but we took the tour on October 13th, 2026), was fantastic! He is truly kind and passionate about his work. His time management was excellent, and he arranged the itinerary extremely well. Only two of us joined the DC Plane Wreck tour while the others went glacier hiking. Instead of leaving us to wait around while the others hiked, he took us to explore some beautiful surrounding spots. This thoughtful arrangement gave us an incredible bonus experience. On top of that, he made us feel completely reassured—he informed the plane wreck shuttle driver about us and promised to pick us up right on time. Thank you so much! I highly recommend this tour guide!

The car was very comfortable, and our guide Jessica was very enthusiastic. The entire trip was enjoyable! The only minor drawback was that the time at each attraction felt a bit rushed. I suggest skipping the complimentary Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach tour so that everyone has more time to eat and explore.

i had so much fun at this tour. it was exciting to be driven through a bumpy landscape with the big truck and through a river. the guide Otto was informative and very entertaining. i accidentally forgot my rain coat at the bus and they kindly dropped it off for me. kudos to the company for the great service!

A great experience (particularly the ice climbing) and well organised day. The guide for the ice climbing, Steven, was knowledgable, safety concious and thorough in his explanations that gave me the confidence to push myself into some incredible situations on the glacier. Were it not for his professionalism and attention to detail, I doubt I would have had the same experience. Highly recommend this for an adventure seeking day up close to the glacier, especially if Steven is at the helm!

Skógafoss & Seljalandsfoss Waterfalls 🌈 Freezing cold, howling wind, and pouring rain. Witnessed the natural beauty of light refraction. Caught a rainbow at both! 🌈 ReynisfjaraBlackSandBeach The conditions at Reynisfjara were awful, and despite keeping my distance, I actually got dragged in by a sneaker wave. In that exact moment, I thought, 'If I die right now, at least my family gets 12 million in insurance.' #CloseUpGlacier Looking closely at the glacier, it's far from the ordinary white I know. Instead, it's a natural white with light refractions, mesmerizing from every single angle.🌟 #

Seljalandsfoss Waterfall

Prepare to be mesmerized by the breathtaking Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, a natural wonder that captivates with its 60-meter cascade from the Seljalands River, fed by the Eyjafjallajökull glacier. What sets this waterfall apart is the exhilarating path that leads you behind the curtain of water, offering an unparalleled view and the refreshing sensation of mist on your skin. Easily accessible from Highway 1, Seljalandsfoss is a must-see for anyone eager to explore the enchanting landscapes of Iceland.

Culture and History

Seljalandsfoss is a breathtaking natural wonder that is deeply intertwined with Iceland's geological history. The waterfall is nourished by the Seljalands River, which originates from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano glacier, a site known for its volcanic activity. In 1976, a flood reshaped the waterfall, creating a crevice in the ridge and altering its spread, adding a historical layer to its allure. This captivating site is a symbol of Iceland's pristine landscapes and holds a special place in the nation's culture and history.

Local Cuisine

While exploring the stunning Seljalandsfoss, travelers have the opportunity to savor Icelandic culinary delights. Dive into traditional dishes like 'plokkfiskur,' a hearty fish stew, and 'skyr,' a creamy dairy product similar to yogurt. These local flavors provide a delicious taste of Iceland's rich culinary heritage, making your visit even more memorable.
