Begin your day with a convenient pickup from Reykjavík in a vehicle perfectly sized for your group’s comfort. Then you’ll head on down to the country’s South Coast to see some of Iceland’s most beautiful locations.
This day trip will take you to some of the areas that were most affected by the 2010 eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull Volcano, where volcanic ash halted all air traffic between North America and Europe. It is an impressive volcano covered with an ice cap of approximately 100 square kilometres. The mountain itself is a stratovolcano 5,417 feet (1,651 meters) tall at its highest point.
On your journey, you will see the beautiful Seljalandsfoss Waterfall. A walking path leads around the waterfall, even behind the cascading water. So you’ll be able to see the landscape around you through a veil of falling spring water.
Next on your journey is the magnificent Skogafoss Waterfall, where it is common to see lucky rainbows when the sun is shining. This is one of Iceland’s biggest cascades with a width of 25 meters and a 60-meter drop. According to legend, a treasure is buried in a cave behind the waterfall.
You'll walk and drive on black sand beaches pounded by the Atlantic surf and see the bird cliffs that surround the quaint coastal village of Vik, which are teeming with life in spring and summer when the puffins and other seabirds come to nest.
If the sights are not enough, you can add on a glacier hiking tour, lava show experience, or even a horse riding tour during the booking process.
