Prepare for an exhilarating adventure and embark on a thrilling super jeep tour along Iceland's stunning South Coast. Travelers who want to visit the highlights of South Iceland, including waterfalls, black-sand beaches, and picturesque fishing villages, will love this nine-hour excursion.
The journey begins at your accommodation in Reykjavik. Your expert local guide will collect you in a super jeep, a vehicle that's been specially designed to tackle even the most challenging terrain.
You'll meet the other guests joining you on the tour before setting off along the South Coast.
Your first stop is the Seljalandsfoss waterfall, a mesmerizing cascade of water that plummets from the cliffs above. If you're visiting in summer, you'll have a unique opportunity to walk behind the waterfall and see the cascade from the cavern behind the falls.
You're likely to get wet from the mist, but it's worth it for the spectacular view through the curtain of falling water.
Continuing the journey, you'll reach Skogafoss waterfall. At about 200 feet (60 meters), it's the same height as Seljalandsfoss waterfall but much broader and more powerful. Marvel at nature's might as the cascade creates a cloud of mist.
If you're feeling adventurous, you can climb the steep staircase alongside the waterfall for an excellent view from the top.
Next, you'll go to a famous black sand beach, a place of stark beauty where the Atlantic Ocean meets the dark volcanic sands. Look out to sea and spot the eerie basalt sea stacks known as Reynisdrangar, shrouded in folklore and mystery.
After a quick stop at the picturesque village of Vik, you'll start the journey back to Reykjavik. On the way, you'll stop at Hveragerdi, a charming settlement known for its geothermal activity.
Stroll through the town and witness the power of Iceland's geothermal energy, with steam rising from the earth and providing warmth to the greenhouses that grow vegetables year-round.
As you travel the South Coast, you'll have the chance to admire the majestic Eyjafjallajokull volcano. You might remember its 2010 eruption that disrupted air travel worldwide.
The guide will share insights into the geological forces that shape Iceland and the impact of this eruption on the region.
After a fantastic day exploring the South Coast, you'll be dropped off back at your accommodation in Reykjavik.
