Discover the beauty of Iceland's South Coast, hike atop a mighty glacier, and have professional photos of the experience by joining this incredible small-group tour. Travelers seeking the adventure of a lifetime while gazing upon diverse attractions from waterfalls to glaciers should now grab a spot on this tour.
The excursion starts as the guide picks you up near your accommodation in Reykjavik. Being on this small-group tour allows for more flexibility and convenience, where you can travel at a more comfortable pace while still sticking to an itinerary. You also get a 30-shot photo package taken by your friendly guide, who is also a professional photographer.
Once settled in, the real epic adventure to Iceland's South Coast begins.
A breathtaking view awaits you at your first stop, 80 miles (128 kilometers) from Reykjavik. Here, the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall cascades in full glory from a tall cliff of 200 feet (60 meters). Its most distinctive feature is the pathway encircling it, allowing you to view its grand waters from a 360-degree perspective.
Next is Skogafoss waterfall, arguably one of Iceland's grandest and most breathtaking waterfalls, making it almost a mandatory stop for those traversing the Ring Road. The waterfall's 82 feet (25 meters) width allows for a great photo opportunity, and your photo guide will make the most of it.
If lucky enough, you might even see a double rainbow in front of you, making this small-group tour more exceptional.
The most adventurous part of your small-group tour is your stop at Solheimajokull glacier, an outlet glacier of the mighty Myrdalsjokull icecap. This time, you won't only see amazing landscapes but also get to experience walking on them.
For approximately two hours, you'll wander and hike atop Solheimajokull glacier. Ice ridges, walls, and crevasses of different colors, from powdery white to ash black, make up its length of five miles (eight kilometers). Glacier hiking is an excellent opportunity to experience the best of what Iceland's South Coast can offer in just a day trip.
As you hike, your guide will continue taking professional-level pictures of you and your group, which will be sent a week later.
Your adventurous South Coast tour will have two more incredible stops at the town of Vik and the world-renowned Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach before returning to Reykjavik.
Vik, a picturesque remote seafront village, is a common stop for travelers touring Iceland's South Coast. This is where you'll have a savory lunch where you can also see some souvenirs to buy.
Iceland may have several volcanic beaches, but nothing compares to Reynisfjara. On this shoreline, you can walk on the iconic black sands and see unique landscapes like basalt columns and cliffs.
As you return to your hotel in Reykjavik, you will bring great memories of the South Coast's unrivaled beauty. You'll soon receive your portfolio where you can relive the experience again!
