South Coast Small Group Tour Waterfalls Glacier and Black Beach

About this activity

See the best of Iceland's South Coast in a small group with an English-speaking guide, not in a big coach. You join the tour at one of three central meeting points in Reykjavik, and with fewer people on board the long day stays relaxed, with real time at each stop.

Walk behind Seljalandsfoss and find Gljúfrabúi hidden in its canyon. Stand at the foot of the sixty-metre Skógafoss, then walk to the edge of the Sólheimajökull glacier to see the ice up close.

At Reynisfjara, the famous black sand beach, you see basalt columns, a sea cave and the Reynisdrangar sea stacks. Lunch is in the village of Vík at your own cost. Your guide shares stories about volcanoes, glaciers and life in the countryside, and you are dropped off at the same central meeting points in Reykjavík. The order of the stops may change to avoid crowds or because of weather and road conditions.
