  • Seljalandsfoss

    Seljalandsfoss: Iceland’s Iconic Waterfall Experience Seljalandsfoss is one of Iceland’s most famous and picturesque waterfalls, located in the South Region along the Seljalands River, which originates from the Eyjafjallajökull glacier. This stunning waterfall plunges approximately 60 meters (197 feet) into a serene pool below. What makes Seljalandsfoss truly unique and popular is the rare opportunity to walk behind the cascading water, offering visitors a breathtaking and immersive experience. As you take in the views from behind the waterfall, you’ll be surrounded by the natural beauty of Iceland’s rugged landscapes, making Seljalandsfoss a must-visit destination for travelers exploring the country’s South Coast.

  • N/A

    Gljúfrabúi: Iceland’s Hidden Gem Waterfall Gljúfrabúi, often referred to as the “hidden waterfall,” is a stunning yet lesser-known gem located near the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall in Iceland’s South Region. Tucked behind a narrow canyon, Gljúfrabúi offers a more secluded and magical experience for visitors. The waterfall, which drops about 40 meters (131 feet), is partially concealed by a cliff, creating a serene and mystical atmosphere. Adventurous travelers can access the waterfall by wading through a small stream or climbing rocks to get a closer view, making it a perfect destination for those seeking a more intimate connection with Iceland’s natural beauty. With its hidden location and unique setting, Gljúfrabúi is a must-visit stop along Iceland’s South Coast.

    20 minutes

  • Volcano Eyjafjallajokull

    Eyjafjallajökull: Iceland’s Famous Glacier and Volcano Eyjafjallajökull is a well-known glacier and active volcano located in southern Iceland. Covering an area of approximately 100 square kilometers (39 square miles), this glacier sits atop a volcano with the same name. The name “Eyjafjallajökull” translates to “Island Mountain Glacier” in Icelandic, referencing its proximity to the Westman Islands and the mountainous terrain that surrounds it. Eyjafjallajökull gained international attention in April 2010 when its volcanic eruption caused massive disruption to air travel across Europe, as a result of the ash cloud it produced. This eruption was remarkable not only for the impact on global air traffic but also for the dramatic volcanic activity and towering ash plumes visible from miles away.

    10 minutes

  • Skogafoss

    Skógafoss: One of Iceland’s Largest and Most Iconic Waterfalls Skógafoss is one of Iceland’s largest and most famous waterfalls, located on the Skógá River in southern Iceland, near the village of Skógar. The waterfall plunges 60 meters (197 feet) and spans 25 meters (82 feet) in width, creating a powerful and breathtaking cascade that attracts visitors year-round. One of the standout features of Skógafoss is its accessibility. Visitors can get up close to the base of the waterfall, where the mist frequently produces vibrant rainbows on sunny days, adding to its magical allure. For those seeking an even more spectacular view, a staircase leads to an observation platform at the top of the falls, offering panoramic vistas of the surrounding landscapes and the river as it winds through the rugged terrain.

    40 minutes

  • Vikurfjara Black Sand Beach

    Reynisfjara: Iceland’s Famous Black Sand Beach Reynisfjara, also known as the Black Sand Beach, is one of Iceland’s most famous and visually striking beaches, located near the village of Vík í Mýrdal on the southern coast. This iconic beach is renowned for its dramatic black volcanic sands, powerful waves, and stunning geological formations, including towering basalt columns and the Reynisdrangar sea stacks that rise from the ocean. Visitors are drawn to the otherworldly beauty of the landscape, where the contrast between the black sands and the white waves creates a unique and unforgettable experience. Due to strong currents, swimming is not advised, but the mesmerizing scenery makes it a must-visit destination for photographers and nature lovers alike.

    40 minutes

  • Dyrholaey

    Dyrhólaey: Iceland’s Majestic Coastal Promontory Dyrhólaey is a small yet iconic promontory located on the southern coast of Iceland, near the town of Vík í Mýrdal. It is renowned for its dramatic natural beauty, featuring a distinctive arch-shaped rock formation that rises 120 meters (394 feet) above the North Atlantic Ocean. The name “Dyrhólaey” translates to “door hill island,” referring to the large arch that resembles a door carved through the promontory. One of Dyrhólaey’s main attractions is its stunning panoramic views. From the top, visitors can take in the sight of the expansive black sand beaches stretching along the southern coast, the vast ocean, and the distant Mýrdalsjökull glacier. Dyrhólaey is also a popular destination for birdwatching, particularly in the summer months when puffins, Arctic terns, and other seabirds nest on the cliffs, making it a haven for wildlife enthusiasts.

    30 minutes

  • Solheimajokull Glacier

    Sólheimajökull: Iceland’s Accessible Glacier Adventure Sólheimajökull is a glacier tongue extending from the larger Mýrdalsjökull ice cap, located in southern Iceland. It is one of the most accessible glaciers in the country, attracting numerous visitors eager to explore its breathtaking icy landscape. The name “Sólheimajökull” translates to “Sun House Glacier,” a poetic contrast to the often harsh and frigid conditions found there. Stretching approximately 11 kilometers (7 miles) in length, Sólheimajökull is renowned for its dynamic, ever-changing features. Visitors will encounter deep crevasses, striking blue ice formations, and unique ash layers from volcanic eruptions, particularly from the nearby Katla volcano. These ash layers form beautiful black and white striations in the ice, enhancing the glacier’s visual appeal. Adventurers can explore the glacier on guided hikes, offering a close-up look at one of Iceland’s most striking natural wonders.

Thank you so much.

Published on Nov, 2024

The best tour I have visited so far in Iceland, I have never been on a private tour before and loved it so much. I will remember it for the rest of my life.

South Coast is amazing

Published on Sep, 2024

My sister and I booked a private tour of South Iceland and it was by far the best part of our entire trip. Sergey was incredibly accommodating, picking us up from where we were staying. The tour is a long one so thankfully Sergey has a very comfortable car and makes the drive fun and relaxing with fun facts about Iceland. He took us to some of the most beautiful places we have ever seen! He even brought us ponchos for some of the waterfalls so we wouldn't get wet! I cannot thank Sergey enough for making this such a memorable experience and for capturing so many awesome moments between sisters!

Go with this tour for comfort and convenience!

If you're looking for a safe, comfortable private tour where you are driven by a lovely man who explains what you are seeing and works out where you are going, look no further. My daughter and I loved this tour to the South and also to the Golden Circle. George was great and we felt like good friends at the end. The weather was cold even in August, so we were so happy to be able to jump in and out of the car when needed. Very happy with our tours and would recommend to anyone!
