The first stop on the tour is the magnificent Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon. Jokulsarlon is one of Iceland's most stunning natural wonders, located at the edge of the Vatnajokull National Park.
The lagoon is filled with massive icebergs that break off from Breidamerkurjokull glacier, floating through the crystal-clear water. It offers visitors a chance to witness the raw beauty of nature, with the contrast of blue ice and dark volcanic sands creating a striking landscape. Seals are often spotted swimming among the icebergs.
Next, it's on to Diamond Beach. Diamond Beach is located just across the road from Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon. This black sand beach is famous for the chunks of ice that wash ashore from the nearby lagoon.
These ice pieces, shaped by the ocean, resemble diamonds scattered across the dark sand, creating a unique and visually striking scene. It's a popular spot for photographers and visitors wanting to see the contrast between the icy "diamonds" and the volcanic beach.
You will have a lunch break in the village of Vik. Vik is a small village known for its dramatic landscapes. The village is famous for the nearby Reynisfjara beach, where striking basalt columns and sea stacks rise from the ocean.
The village also has a picturesque church perched on a hill, offering great views of the surrounding area.
You'll visit two striking waterfalls, Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss. Skogafoss waterfall is known for its powerful 197-foot (60-meter) drop and wide cascade, often creating rainbows on sunny days. You can walk up a staircase to the top for a different view or explore the base to feel the mist.
Seljalandsfoss waterfall, not far from Skogafoss waterfall, offers a unique experience as you can walk behind it and see it from a new perspective.
At the end of the tour, your driver will take you back to your accommodation in Reykjavik, ready to continue your adventures in Iceland or head home.
