Adventure-Filled 2-Day South Coast Exploration Tour of Glaciers, Waterfalls & Icebergs

Welcome to the start of your exciting journey! Your tour begins with a morning pick-up from either your preferred bus stop or the hotel you've chosen in Reykjavik. Your first destination is the enchanting south of Iceland.

As you venture out, you'll pass through the stunning landscapes surrounding Reykjavik, catching sight of majestic mountains and experiencing the magical phenomenon of the never-ending midnight sun during the summer months.

Your initial stop introduces you to the captivating Seljalandsfoss waterfall, one of Iceland's most renowned and frequently visited natural wonders. This breathtaking waterfall boasts a captivating 197-foot (60-meter) drop and a truly unique feature: the ability to be admired from behind. A remarkable rarity in the world, you can actually walk behind the waterfall due to the cave-like cliff formation.

Taking a short and easy hike behind the falls offers you an unforgettable encounter. The view from behind the cascading water and the sensation of the ground trembling beneath its power creates lasting memories. Remember to equip yourself with a raincoat to shield against the waterfall's mist and be cautious of the potentially slippery path.

Just a short distance away, an additional gem awaits your discovery - Gljufrabui waterfall. Once a secret known only to locals, this charming waterfall, hidden behind imposing rocks, now draws your attention as a curious traveler. A narrow entrance leads you into a magical canyon encircled by the mountains, where this serene waterfall resides.

Continuing your journey, you reach the remarkable Skogafoss waterfall. This awe-inspiring waterfall spans an impressive 82 feet (25 meters) in width and soars over 197 feet (60 meters) high. What sets Skogafoss apart is the rare opportunity to view it from above.

Located within a gorge, the Skoga River takes a dramatic plunge down the 197-foot (60-meter) cliff, eventually making its way to the Atlantic Ocean. A staircase along the gorge leads to a viewpoint above the waterfall, offering breathtaking perspectives. 

Prepare for the peak of excitement during this two-day tour: a glacier hike on Europe's largest glacier. You'll be transported to one of the world's rarest and most remarkable sites - a mighty glacier. 

This is a privilege enjoyed by few as glaciers are diminishing. This area has even served as a backdrop for famous TV shows and movies like Game of Thrones.

Upon arrival, your professional glacier guide will provide essential safety gear such as ice axes, crampons, and harnesses before leading you onto the glacier. 

The journey involves hiking on ice that has endured for 2000 to 3000 years, unveiling a spectacle of natural ice phenomena. You'll encounter deep crevasses, intriguing moulins resembling ice tunnels, and awe-inspiring icefalls breaking from the glacier's summit.

Be sure to equip yourself with suitable clothing and hiking footwear for this memorable experience. In case of adverse weather or unavailable guides, an equally stunning glacier, Solheimajokull, might be your alternate choice.

Following the glacier hike, you'll proceed to your hotel in the southeastern region of Iceland. There, a delightful dinner and a comfortable night's rest await, surrounded by picturesque landscapes.
