Entrusted in the hands of a friendly guide from a family-run company, you're guaranteed an excursion filled with laughter, stories, and insightful narratives. Your experienced guide will help bring the Icelandic landscapes to life uniquely and engagingly.

Your adventure starts with a visit to the hidden gem of Gljufrabui waterfall, a serene spot where water cascades gracefully amidst lush greenery. It's lesser-known than other South Coast waterfalls, offering an off-the-beaten-track start to your day.

Next, your driver will take you to the stunning Seljalandsfoss waterfall, where you can witness raw natural beauty as the water cascades into a picturesque pool below.

After Seljalandfoss, the towering Skogafoss waterfall awaits. Marvel at its thunderous waters and perhaps glimpse a rainbow on sunny days. 

Your journey continues to the renowned Reynisfjara black beach, where the roaring waves of the Atlantic meet the unique dark sandy shores flanked by fascinating basalt columns. You'll also see the Reynisdranger sea stacks standing proudly in the ocean. They're supposedly trolls turned to stone at daybreak.

The highlight of your tour is a visit to the breathtaking Katla ice cave. Equipped with crampons, a helmet, and a headlight, you'll venture into a fascinating ice-covered world. 

Witness the fascinating interplay of light and ice, with intricate formations telling tales of centuries past. Your guide will ensure your safety and capture complimentary photos and videos of your ice-caving experience, providing cherished memories of your adventure.

During your full-day tour, you'll have the opportunity to savor lunch at a local eatery. Please note that the tour price doesn't include meals.
