This 10-hour tour in Iceland opens with a meet-up with your guide at Bus Stop 12 in Reykjavik. The meeting location is easy to locate because it lies in the city center near major accommodations in the Icelandic capital.

On board a spacious bus with free Wi-Fi, the guide will take you on an exciting journey to the South Coast of Iceland. This region is one of the best places to explore because of its diverse natural features, from waterfalls to glaciers. Its convenient proximity to the vibrant Icelandic capital, Reykjavik, makes it even more enticing.

First in your itinerary is the awe-inspiring Skogafoss waterfall, 97 miles (156 kilometers) from Reykjavik. Skogafoss boasts a majestic water curtain plunging 200 feet (60 meters) into a pool below. On a sunny day, you can see a rainbow shooting above its cold waters.

Next to see is the Reynisfjara beach, a striking stretch of black sand framed by the mighty waves of the Atlantic Ocean. Locals and travelers consider this attraction the most beautiful black sand beach in Iceland, and you'll find out why on your visit.

Besides the long stretch of black sands, what makes the attraction more breathtaking are its basalt columns and sea stacks rising from the sea. The sea stacks, known as Reynisdrangar, are said to be trolls turned to stone. You'll hear more about this folklore from your guide.

Continuing along the South Coast, you'll arrive at Vik village, a charming village nestled in scenic landscapes and coasts. Besides panoramic views of the sea and surrounding mountains, Vik offers a great place to immerse yourself in local culture with its quaint streets, restaurants, and souvenir shops.

One of the highlights of your trip is your time at the Solheimajokull glacier, a breathtaking frozen wonderland with rugged terrain. Solheimajokull is part of the larger Myrdalsjokull glacier, the country's fourth-largest ice cap.

The guide will lead you on a short walk to the glacier's edge for a closer look. From this spot, your group can enjoy a thrilling view of the thick ice, mountains, and crevasses that make up the Solheimajokull glacier.

Your final stop for the day is the Seljalandsfoss waterfall. Besides its beautiful cascade of 200 feet (60 meters), the waterfall offers a unique viewing experience to every visitor. A small cave goes behind the waterfall, allowing you to view its water curtain from behind and in all directions.

Your day tour ends as you return to Reykjavik early in the evening.
