Full-Day Minibus Tour along Iceland South Coast with Glacier Hike

About the Activity

What to Expect

Experience a full-day sightseeing bus tour along the south coast of Iceland with a visit to waterfalls and a glacier hike. Our first destination is the breathtaking Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, where you will have the remarkable chance to walk behind the 65-meter cascade and feel the power of the water rushing down. This spot is an ideal place for capturing unforgettable photos. As our journey continues through the fertile farmlands and quaint villages of south Iceland, keep your eyes peeled for the infamous Eyjafjallajökull and Hekla volcanoes on clear days, as well as the distant Westman Islands off the coast.

The next stop is an adventure on ice, as you join our certified glacier guides for an exhilarating hike on a 700-year-old glacier tongue. Listen to the ancient ice crack beneath your feet as you safely explore the stunning glacial landscape. After this thrilling experience, we head to the striking Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, famous for its basalt columns and caverns. Stroll along the volcanic sands and marvel at the dramatic Reynisdrangar cliffs and basalt rock stacks, which are said to be trolls turned to stone by the morning sun.

We conclude this incredible day tour at the majestic Skógafoss Waterfall, a 60-meter-high natural wonder. You can walk right up to this thundering waterfall to feel the refreshing spray on your face or climb the 527 steps for a bird's eye view of the cascading water and vibrant rainbows. This tour is perfect for nature enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike.
