Summary
Description
Pack your day with adventure with this incredible South Coast sightseeing, ice caving, and monster truck tour. Travelers seeking thrilling experiences and breathtaking attractions in Iceland will find no better excursion!
This exciting adventure begins with a pick-up in Reykjavik, where you'll meet your friendly driver and board your modern, comfortable bus. From here, you'll set off from the city and enter the beautiful landscapes of South Iceland.
Before you first stop, you'll pass through the beautiful nature of South Iceland, including the countryside, mountains, geothermal areas, and black sand beaches.
The order in which you sightsee or go ice caving will depend on the day's conditions. If you go sightseeing first, your two major destinations will be the waterfalls of Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss.
Skogafoss waterfall is one of Iceland's more classic waterfalls, cascading with great force in one dramatic drop. It stands around 200 feet (60 meters) tall and produces a huge cloud of spray. In summer, rainbows arch through this mist.
A staircase beside the waterfall allows you to see it from different vantage points.
Seljalandsfoss waterfall is just as tall as Skogafoss but has a much gentler cascade. What makes it one of the country's favorite features, however, is the wide cavern that has opened behind it, allowing visitors to encircle the waterfall in clear weather.
The views behind the water are unique and breathtaking, but you'll want a raincoat to keep dry from the spray.
Regarding the ice caving, you'll meet at the Myrdalsjokull base camp, where your glacier guides will be waiting. These friendly experts will dress you in all the necessary gear and safety equipment before taking you aboard their huge monster truck.
The journey up the glacier is thrilling. You pass over rocky trails until you reach the gleaming landscape of ice. In clear weather, the views over the Highlands and South Coast will be beautiful.
Once you reach the Askur ice cave, you will experience one of the most incredible experiences Iceland has to offer. Ice caving allows you to walk through the breathtaking corridors and chambers that nature has created, marveling over vivid colors, textures, and lighting effects.
You'll have up to an hour to explore this magical location, which will provide plenty of opportunities for photographs and lasting memories. You can also ask your guides any questions about the phenomenon or the Katla volcano, which sits just beneath the ice.
After a once-in-a-lifetime ice caving experience at Myrdalsjokull and incredible sightseeing along the South Coast, you'll return to Reykjavik on your bus.
Grab this incredible opportunity to witness the beauty of South Iceland's waterfalls and the Askur ice cave at Myrdalsjokull glacier over one action-packed day. Check availability now by choosing a date.
