Download PDF ItineraryPick up at your accommodation
We start the experience with pickup directly at your hotel or the nearest bus stop, according to your preference. We adapt the schedule to weather conditions and the group's needs to ensure the best possible day. Before leaving, we will hold a brief briefing where we will give you recommendations on clothing, weather information and safety tips, so you can enjoy the tour with complete peace of mind.
Rest stop
On the way to our first destination, we will make a strategic stop so you can relax, use the restrooms, buy a snack or enjoy a light breakfast. It is the perfect time to recharge before starting the adventure.
Seljalandsfoss Waterfall
Our first stop will be this impressive waterfall, famous for the possibility of walking behind its curtain of water (when conditions allow). A unique place for unforgettable photos and connection with nature.
Cave House - Rutshellir
We will visit the traditional cave houses, a fascinating example of past Icelandic architecture, where you can learn how the inhabitants of the region lived in ancient times.
Skógafoss Waterfall
We continue to one of Iceland's most iconic waterfalls. Its impressive water drop and the possibility of getting very close make it a spectacular experience. If the weather is right, you will see rainbows forming in front of the waterfall.
Sólheimajökull Glacier
We approach this impressive glacier, a tongue of the great Mýrdalsjökull glacier. Here you can admire the ice up close, its formations and learn about the changes it has undergone over time.
Reynisfjara Beach (lunch)
We arrive at the famous black sand beach, known for its basalt columns and powerful Atlantic waves. Here we will take a break for lunch while you enjoy one of the most impressive landscapes in the country.
Village of Vík í Mýrdal
We end the tour in this charming village. If time permits, you will have the opportunity to visit one of its local shops to buy souvenirs and take home a memory of this incredible experience.
Return to Reykjavik
After a day full of unforgettable landscapes, we begin our return to Reykjavik. The estimated return time may vary depending on weather and traffic conditions, but we generally arrive in the late afternoon/evening. We will drop you off comfortably at your hotel, accommodation or at the previously coordinated bus stop.
Special Note
If weather and time allow (especially during summer when days are longer), we may add a visit to the beautiful Kvernufoss waterfall.
