About this activity

Join us for a two-day adventure to Iceland’s spectacular South Coast. The journey's highlights include visits to the iconic Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls, a guided glacier hike on ancient ice, and the opportunity to enter a natural blue ice cave (Oct-Mar). You will explore the surreal beauty of Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon and the nearby Diamond Beach, followed by a stop at the famous Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach. In the evenings, you’ll have a prime chance to spot the Northern Lights thanks to a remote countryside hotel stay.

This comprehensive 2-day tour offers an efficient way to experience the vast geological diversity of Iceland's South Coast, departing from Reykjavík.

Please note: Northern Lights sightings are a natural seasonal occurrence and not a guaranteed guided tour included in our multi-day packages.
