Description

Experience the best of Iceland's South Coast on this 10-hour private tour from Reykjavik. This exclusive excursion led by a knowledgeable guide features popular waterfalls, glaciers, black sand beaches, and other hidden natural wonders of the region for the most unforgettable experience.

The adventure begins with a convenient pick-up from your hotel in Reykjavik. Your professional driver-guide will meet you at your accommodation and assist you in a spacious vehicle that will serve as your tour transportation for the next nine to 10 hours.

This private tour offers numerous benefits, including the flexibility to customize your itinerary and spend more time at the locations that interest you the most. With a private tour guide, you'll receive detailed and engaging commentary about each site, tailored to your interests. 

In addition, having a private guide means you'll have the opportunity to ask questions and delve deeper into Iceland's history, geology, and culture. The guide's local knowledge ensures that you'll see not only the main attractions but also hidden gems along the way. 

Your first stop is the iconic Seljalandsfoss waterfall. This 200-foot (60-meter) tall waterfall is unique because you can walk behind it, offering a rare and exhilarating perspective. The path behind the cascading water provides incredible photo opportunities.

Next, you'll visit Skogafoss, one of Iceland's largest and most powerful waterfalls. With a width of 82 feet (25 meters) and a drop of 200 feet (60 meters), Skogafoss creates a dramatic spectacle. On sunny days, rainbows are often visible in the mist, adding to the waterfall's enchanting beauty.

The tour continues to the Solheimajokull glacier, an outlet of the larger Myrdalsjokull glacier. Here, you'll have the chance to see the glacier up close and learn about its formation and the effects of climate change. 

One of the tour's highlights is Reynisfjara beach, renowned for its black sand and striking basalt columns. The beach offers stunning views of the Reynisdrangar sea stacks and the roaring Atlantic waves. It's a perfect spot for photographers and nature enthusiasts.

Your journey also includes a visit to the charming village of Vik, the southernmost village in mainland Iceland. Surrounded by dramatic cliffs and black sand beaches, Vik is a picturesque location with a rich history, charming streets, and cozy atmosphere.

In addition to these main attractions, the tour offers the flexibility to visit additional destinations of your choosing. Options include the hidden Gljufrabui waterfall, the intriguing DC3 plane wreck, and the scenic Dyrholaey peninsula, each offering unique sights and experiences.

If you have any particular attraction in mind located in the area, don't hesitate to tell your tour operator in advance.

After a fun-filled adventure on the South Coast, the guide will drop you off at your accommodation in Reykjavik.
