Full Day Private Jeep Tour to South Coast Iceland with Glacier & Waterfall

About the Activity

What to Expect

Prepare for an unforgettable day as we take you on this private Jeep tour to the glacial, waterfall, and hot spring wonders of the southern coast of Iceland. Following the North Atlantic coastline from Reykjavík, you will be driven by our knowledgeable guide deep into the volcanic and glacier-covered wonderland that is Iceland's South Coast. The adventure begins with a drive through lava fields, passing by the actively volcanic Hengill mountain, and descending into the lush coastal farmlands. On clear days, marvel at the sight of the majestic Hekla Volcano and the glacier-capped Eyjafjallajökull Volcano rising in the distance.

Your first stop is the awe-inspiring Skógafoss Waterfall, where a short walk up a flight of steps reveals one of Iceland’s most scenic views, including glaciers, volcanoes, and black sandy beaches. Watch for the stunning rainbows that often appear when the sun shines. The tour offers optional visits to the beautiful Reynisfjara Beach, Sólheimajökull glacier tongue, and the enchanting black beaches at Sólheimasandur. Before returning to the city, you will experience the 60-metre high Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, famous for its hidden pathway that allows you to feel the refreshing spray as you venture behind it. Travelling in the sturdy 4X4 Land Rover Defender Jeep ensures a comfortable and safe exploration, perfect for families, friends, and nature lovers alike.
