This two-day summer tour covers Iceland's South Coast from Seljalandsfoss to the Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon. Day one visits Seljalandsfoss, the hidden Gljúfrabúi waterfall inside a mini cave (expect to get wet), Skógafoss, where 527 steps lead to the top, and the black sand beach of Reynisfjara. It ends with a glacier hike on Sólheimajökull, with all safety equipment provided. The hotel is somewhere between Vík and Höfn, with plenty of time to explore the area. Day two goes to Jökulsárlón, where extra time is set aside for an amphibian boat tour into the lagoon, then Diamond Beach, the Eldhraun lava field, the Bridge of the Volcanoes in Skaftafell National Park and the Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon, which is open only in summer. If time permits, the drive back includes more of Vík. The minimum age is eight years. Warm clothing and comfortable shoes are needed. Dinner is late for some travelers, so snacks are advised. July and August are very busy on the South Coast, and the tour fills up quickly.

Itinerary

The map could not be loaded. Please try again in a moment.

  1. Seljalandsfoss waterfall

    One of the best-known waterfalls in Iceland.

  2. Skogafoss

    Another waterfall, just as impressive, with plenty of rainbows. A climb of 527 steps leads to a viewpoint at the top.

  3. Gljufrabui Waterfalls

    A hidden waterfall inside a mini cave. Expect to get wet.

  4. Solheimajokull Glacier

    The glacier hike onto Sólheimajökull, with all safety equipment provided.

  5. Reynisfjara Beach

    The famous black sand beach, with basalt cliffs. Stay away from the water: its strength and the hidden drops in the sand can trap people.

  6. Diamond Beach

    A part of Jökulsárlón where chunks of glacier ice wash up on a beach and shine like diamonds when the sun hits them.

  7. Jokulsarlon

    The famous glacier lagoon, with views of the glacier. Extra time here includes an amphibian boat tour into the lagoon for closer views.

  8. Eldhraun Lava Field

    A volcanic lava field, with close views of old lava.

  9. Skaftafell National Park

    The Bridge of the Volcanoes lies inside this national park, and the road through it gives views along the drive.

  10. Fjadrargljufur Canyon

    A deep, winding canyon in South Iceland, open only in summer because heavy traffic leaves nature in need of recovery.
