Key attractions include a walk-behind experience at Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, the majestic Skógafoss Waterfall (where you can climb to the top), a hike on the Sólheimajökull Glacier (with all necessary safety equipment provided), and a visit to the volcanic Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, home to basalt columns and Atlantic waves.

Join this full-day excursion from Reykjavík to the famous South Coast of Iceland. The tour starts with pickup at your chosen location in the capital area. The first geological stops are two of Iceland's most recognized waterfalls: Seljalandsfoss, which allows visitors to walk safely behind the cascade, and Skógafoss, known for its powerful 60-meter drop and surrounding stairs that offer a top-down view. Both are approximately 1.5 to 2 hours of driving from the city.

The main adventure is the Glacier Hike on Sólheimajökull, an outlet of the larger Mýrdalsjökull glacier. Once at the glacier base, professional guides will provide essential equipment, including crampons and ice axes. Participants should be prepared for an easy to moderate physical activity level. The hike offers a direct experience with the ice, where you can observe crevasses and the unique textures of the glacier ice.

The tour concludes with a visit to Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, famous for its black sand and unique hexagonal basalt columns. The beach is exposed to strong waves, which should be respected at all times.

The entire trip is led by an English-speaking guide and includes round-trip transportation by minibus with Wi-Fi. The total duration is approximately 12 hours.
