Explore Iceland’s beauty in comfort and style on this luxury South Coast tour from Reykjavik. This full-day adventure is the perfect choice for families, friends, or small groups who prefer to explore waterfalls, black sand beaches, and glaciers in a spacious luxury vehicle.
With a small group size, a flexible itinerary, and a friendly local guide, you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy every stop at your own pace. Your luxury vehicle offers large windows, generous seating, and a smooth ride.
The South Coast is one of Iceland’s most beautiful regions and a highlight of any visit. In a single day, you can see many of the country’s most famous sights, such as its powerful waterfalls, ancient glaciers, and dramatic coastlines.
Your group will leave from your Reykjavik accommodation at your chosen time on board a comfortable vehicle. The guide will brief you on the day’s itinerary and share a few interesting facts about the places you’ll visit before you set off for the South Coast.
The first stop is the LAVA Centre in the town of Hvolsvollur. This interactive museum brings Iceland’s volcanic history to life, helping you understand the natural forces that have shaped the country’s unique landscape.
Continue your sightseeing tour to Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, a 197-foot (60-meter) curtain of water that you can actually walk behind when conditions allow. Bring a light rain jacket, the refreshing mist from Seljalandsfoss is part of the fun!
Your South Coast tour heads next to Skogafoss, another 197-foot (60-meter) waterfall that’s just as impressive but a lot stronger. From the base, you can feel the powerful spray. If you climb the nearby staircase, you’ll be rewarded with panoramic views of the surrounding countryside.
From there, head to Reynisfjara, Iceland’s famous black sand beach. Here, dramatic basalt columns line the shore, and the Reynisdrangar Sea Stacks rise proudly from the Atlantic Ocean. It’s an incredible spot for photography, though your guide will remind you to admire the waves safely from a distance.
Afterward, explore the coastal village of Vik, Iceland’s southernmost town. Nestled between cliffs and sea, it’s a peaceful place to relax. Visit the small hilltop church for sweeping views or stop by a local cafe for a warm drink and a moment of calm.
The adventure continues at Solheimajokull Glacier, a stunning outlet of the Myrdalsjokull Ice Cap. Walk close to the ice to see its ridges, cracks, and deep blue colors. Standing here is a powerful reminder of how dynamic Iceland’s landscape truly is.
After a day filled with incredible sights, your guide will take you back toward Reykjavik. The return journey is a chance to sit back, relax, and take in the vast scenery that makes Iceland so unforgettable.
