Private South Coast Day Tour with Hveragerdi, Dyrholaey and Vik Church, 9 to 11 Hours

Eight stops are fitted into a day of 9 to 11 hours on this private south coast tour from Reykjavik. It starts with the geothermal activity around Hveragerði, continues past Selfoss to Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, and includes Sólheimajökull glacier, an outlet of the Mýrdalsjökull ice cap and one of the easiest glaciers to reach from Reykjavik, only 158 kilometers (98 miles) away. The route is planned to keep driving time short and leave more time at each stop. On the coast the group visits Dyrhólaey, a peninsula 120 meters high with a historic lighthouse, birdlife and a rock arch of the same name, and Reynisfjara, the black sand beach beside Vík í Mýrdal. The final stop is Vík Church, on a hill above the village, where the view takes in the Reynisdrangar sea stacks and, in summer, puffins can be watched. Vík lies between the Mýrdalsjökull glacier and the Atlantic Ocean and is known for black sand beaches and basalt columns. Fuel, parking fees, road tolls, passenger insurance, Wi-Fi and pickup and drop-off at the accommodation are included, with a licensed driver-guide in English or Russian. Alcoholic drinks and lunch are not. A booking takes up to 15 travelers.
