Your day begins with a morning pick-up in Reykjavik by our friendly and seasoned guide. Our intimate group size ensures a personalized and comfortable experience as we set out for a day of exploration.

Seljalandsfoss waterfall

Skógafoss waterfall

Continue your adventure to the majestic Skogafoss waterfall, a grand spectacle that dwarfs its counterparts in width and power. Feel the mist as you approach the falls, and, weather permitting, catch a glimpse of the famous Eyjafjallajokull glacier and volcano that made headlines in 2010.

A man stands in front of the majestic Skógafoss waterfall in Iceland, surrounded by lush greenery. A vibrant rainbow arcs gracefully through the mist rising from the waterfall, creating a stunning contrast against the blue sky. The man is gazing up at the waterfall, capturing the beauty of this natural wonder.

Sólheimajokull Glacier

Journey to Solheimajokull, a captivating glacier tongue originating from the massive ice cap Myrdalsjokull, covering the mighty Katla volcano. A short walk from the parking lot unveils a stunning viewpoint to admire the glacier’s grandeur.

Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach

Next, we arrive at Reynisfjara black sand beach, celebrated for its eerie beauty and dramatic geology. Witness the photogenic hexagonal basalt columns and, in summer, keep an eye out for puffins perched on the cliffs.

When visiting Reynisfjara you need to be very careful. The waves on this beach can be strong and dangerous. Always follow the safety advice of your guide while visiting the beach.

A breathtaking view of Reynisfjara black sand beach in Iceland, showcasing the striking Reynisdrangar cliffs in the background. The dark volcanic sand stretches across the foreground, while powerful waves crash against the shore. The towering, jagged cliffs rise majestically from the ocean, contrasting beautifully with the deep blue water and cloudy sky. The scene captures the wild and rugged beauty of Iceland's coastline.

Sólheimajökull Glacier

Vik, the southernmost village of Iceland, is our furthest stop, featuring mesmerizing sea stacks along the beach. Legend has it that these stacks are the frozen figures of trolls turned to stone while playing in the sea.

Dyrhólaey

Dyrhólaey, a captivating promontory along Iceland’s South Coast, is a natural wonder that leaves visitors in awe. Renowned for its dramatic cliffs and stunning views, Dyrhólaey offers a vantage point that encompasses the vast expanse of the North Atlantic Ocean, the black sand beaches below, and the striking Reynisdrangar sea stacks. The iconic rock arch, for which Dyrhólaey is named (translating to “Door Hill Island” in Icelandic), adds a touch of mystique to this picturesque location. Whether you’re captivated by the rich birdlife, including puffins, or simply savoring the panoramic landscapes, Dyrhólaey stands as a testament to Iceland’s raw and untouched beauty.
