Itinerary

  1. Tour stop

    We leave early from Reykjavik to make the most of the day exploring the stunning south coast of Iceland.

  2. Tour stop

    Our first stop is at the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall. This unique waterfall allows visitors to walk behind the water curtain, offering a unique and photogenic perspective. Just a few minutes' walk away is Gljúfrabúi, a hidden waterfall inside a canyon, often overlooked by tourists. This hidden gem offers a magical and less crowded experience.

  3. Tour stop

    We continue to Skógafoss, one of Iceland's largest and most majestic waterfalls. With a 60-meter drop, the mist often produces a rainbow, creating an impressive natural spectacle. Visitors can climb the 527 steps to the top for a panoramic view of the waterfall and the surrounding landscape.

  4. Tour stop

    Our next stop is Kvernufoss, a hidden waterfall that requires a short hike to reach. This lesser-known waterfall offers a quiet and close-to-nature experience, away from the crowds. In this area we will take the opportunity to have lunch before continuing with our route.

  5. Tour stop

    We head to the famous black sand beach of Reynisfjara, known for its stunning basalt formations, sea caves, and the towering Reynisdrangar sea stacks. This place is perfect for enjoying the wild nature and taking spectacular photos.

  6. Tour stop

    Our final stop is at Dyrhólaey, a rocky promontory with panoramic views of the coast. During the summer season (May to August), this is an excellent place to spot puffins, charismatic seabirds that nest on the cliffs. The views from here are simply breathtaking, offering a great conclusion to our tour.

  7. Tour stop

    We start our journey back to Reykjavik, arriving at approximately 8:00 PM. On the way back, we can reflect on the natural wonders seen and enjoy the Icelandic landscape.
