Description

Discover the South Coast of Iceland with this private tour that takes you to beautiful waterfalls, a black-sand beach, incredible glaciers, and more. You'll love this tour if you want to go sightseeing in Iceland and discover the natural attractions above on a leisurely, stress-free tour. 

Your expert local guide will pick you up in Reykjavik from a location of your choice, part of the convenience of a private tour. Your driver will take you in a comfortable and modern minibus for a scenic drive along the Ring Road until you reach your first destination. 

The first stop will be in the town of Hveragerdi. The town has a bakery that serves delicious food, so you'll have the opportunity to get some breakfast. There's also an Earthquake Museum here, where you can feel what it was like to experience the powerful earthquake the area endured in 2008.

Next, you'll head to two of the most popular places in the country: the Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss waterfalls. Seljalandsfoss has a unique cave behind it that you can visit — it's a great place to take some fantastic photos. Skogafoss falls from the same height, but it's more powerful than Seljalandsfoss. 

Your next stop will be the village of Vik, one of the southernmost points of mainland Iceland. Vik is a great place to grab some traditional Icelandic food, so your guide will take you to a restaurant where you can eat and buy gifts.

For many travelers, the tour's final stop is the best part: Reynisfjara beach. Reynisfjara beach is a black-sand beach that was named one of the top ten non-tropical beaches in the world by National Geographic. 

The dramatic colors and shapes of the beach are breathtaking, and you'll be able to see beautiful sea stacks and columns in the Atlantic waters. However, the water here can be dangerous, so stay well away from the waves.

On the drive back to Reykjavik, you may also stop to see the magnificent Solheimajokull glacier. A visit to the glacier depends on the weather and road conditions, so it's not a guarantee.

Since this is a private tour, you'll have the freedom to spend a long time at each attraction. You can also add additional activities to the trip, such as snowmobiling, an ATV ride, or even a glacier hike. 

After the tour's last stop, your driver will take you back to the pick-up spot you chose in Reykjavik. 

Don't miss this private South Coast sightseeing tour that takes you to the best spots in the region with convenient pick-up and drop-off in Reykjavik. Check availability now by choosing a date.
