Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Seljalandsfoss, Hella Iceland
The famous waterfall one you can walk behind. Be careful you might get wet :)
This unique waterfall flows from the infamous glacier Eyjafjallajökull, the molten-syllables-which nobody can pronounce good for nothing volcanic glacier that stopped all the air traffic over the North-Atlantic back in 2010.
At Seljalandsfoss there are restrooms, a food stall and a small gift shop. The restrooms are free of charge.
NOTE:
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Skogafoss, Skogar Iceland
An archetypal waterfall, Skógafoss is one of the most beautiful and tallest waterfalls in Iceland.
There is a staircase leading to a viewing platform for the waterfall and surrounding areas. The platform gives you an expansive view of the south coast, Eyjafjallajökull and Skógafoss.
NOTE: the restrooms are behind a paywall and entry costs ISK 200 / USD 2.
Duration: 40 minutes
Stop At: Solheimajokull Glacier, Vik Iceland
Sólheimajökull is a glacier tongue, an offshoot off of the main body of Mýrdalsjökull glacier.
We walk towards Sólheimajökull, through the valley it has carved out of the mountain scape and along the glacier river it forms at its base. The valley is a chaotic collection of rocks, gravel and sand which the tongue ground down as it passed over the land.
The glacier is unlike others as it is striped with layers of ash crushed between seasonal layers of ice, but the glacier is surrounded by multiple active volcanic stations.
NOTE: the restrooms are behind a paywall and entry costs ISK 300 / USD 2.5, they accept credit cards.
Duration: 45 minutes
Stop At: Reynisfjara Beach, Route 215, Vik Iceland
Reynisfjara, or the Black Sand Beach, is truly a natural marvel. The site offers beautiful basalt columns, a natural arc viewed from afar, troll-like sea stacks and during the summer season there are thousands of puffins which make the cliffs of the Black Sand Beach their home.
We do both sightseeing and the lunch break there. The restaurant overlooks the South Coast and offers bites suitable for any palate and diet. Restrooms are free for customers.
Duration: 1 hour 15 minutes
Stop At: Vik, Vik, South Region
A short photo stop at the photogenic village of Vík. We stop by the town's church where the troll-like basalt stacks and the village provide the perfect background for a selfie :D
Duration: 15 minutes

The sites were amazing and the day was well planned! This tour gave me an awesome taste of the and I now understand the awe of Iceland. The van was full and our four adults were picked up towards the end and had the las row of four seats. It is too tight for
Four adults. And nine of us are big. If we had been the size of some on the bus it would have been possible. I think you should book 16 or 17 at the most so you don’t have to use the full back seat.
The microphone NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. It was not loud enough and often distorted. Combined with unfamiliar names and the tour guide’s accent I missed at least 25% and struggled to hear the rest!
I WOULD recommend this tour and company, but get a new microphone PLEASE!

I couldn’t possibly recommend this tour more. It was such a pleasurable and memorable day. Of course a lot of the credit goes to Casper- our one of a kind tour guide. He is the sweetest, most thoughtful and fun guide to be around. We did a few extra things which literally were the actual highlights of the experience. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. 🤍

What a fantastic day - Thor was amazing and so knowledgeable, he made it very special for me, my brother and my mum, had a mixture of weather and the sun finally came out for our last trip to the waterfall. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see this amazing country.
