On this tour, we explore the breathtaking waterfalls on the south coast of Iceland. Not only do we drive to the well-known tourist hotspots, but we also visit lesser-known waterfalls off the main road.
An adventure for all ages that you won't forget in no time.
We will start our day in Reykjavik where I will pick you up at bus stop 8 (Hallgrimskirkja). From there, we will drive directly on the famous ring road towards the south. In total, we will visit 6 different waterfalls, which everyone is very special for themselves.
I am also happy to explain to you the many geological peculiarities behind these wonderful landscapes.
I am also happy to help you capture in photos this day.

The tour can be booked all year round but can be canceled at short notice due to bad weather conditions.
Waterproof clothes and sturdy shoes are highly recommended.
In winter, some areas may be locked for safety reasons.

    Thorsteins Grove

    Our first stop is a hidden gem on the south coast of Iceland. A place that not many people know about and we can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of this place. The waterfall is hidden in a rare Icelandic forest surrounded by small caves, which are worth exploring. A beautiful place that is sometimes used as a wedding location.

A small cave allows you to have a view behind the waterfall and to feel the power of water with your own hands. With a view on the geology of the area, we will understand the appearance of the waterfall and see the effects of volcanic eruptions in the past.
