    Seljalandsfoss

    After picking you up right in front of you accommodation, your departure from Reykjavik will begin! It takes around 2 hours to arrive at the first attraction. Seljalandsfoss is one of the most breath-taking waterfalls in South Iceland! The waterfall is loved by travellers because you can actually walk behind it and enjoy the view in a small cave without getting wet! Well..not too wet! Make sure you bring your waterproof clothing with you!

    Skogafoss

    What is a better than one waterfall? Two waterfalls! Only 30 minutes driving from the first one and you will arrive to Skogafoss. This waterfall is massive and it is great for making good photos. You will be at the foot of the imposing waterfall, whose noise is deafening. Expect to be soaked from head to toe if you venture too close! If you want you can climb the 370 steps, on your own pace, to the top of Skogafoss waterfall for an awe-inspiring view.

    Solheimajokull Glacier

    Next, after just 20' of driving you will arrive to the most adventurous part of our trip, to our lovely glacier! Once we arrive there, we will take a 20-min walk from the parking area to the spectacular glacier's tongue where we'll do a safety briefing instruction and help you gear up. We provide all necessary equipment. Next, you will go on the glacier where your beautiful walking exploration will begin! It is a safe experience as our qualified guide has very good knowledge of glacial features, such as crevasses. The hike is relatively easy and can be done by almost anybody. On the top of the glacier you will be able to experience the world like never before! Then, you will head back to the car where you can relax, enjoy Icelandic snacks that we will offer you, and have a warm cup of coffee.

    Reynisfjara Beach

    After a 35-min drive you will arrive to Reynisfjara/Black beach! That is a beach like no other. Forget the common soft, white sands of Boracay or Bali. In Iceland, what you get is wild and fierce. Storm grey organ-shaped basalt columns, jet black volcanic sand, sea stacks, and basalt caves are just some of the features to be found at Reynisfjara. Watch out for the waves and take awesome photos! After that, you will head back to Reykjavík. It is a long drive of 2 1/2 hours but you do not need to worry about that, our guide takes care of you. You can relax and get cosy in our warm and comfortable jeep. He will drop you right in front of your accommodation.
