Description

Embark on an exhilarating journey filled with diverse landscapes and iconic landmarks on this thrilling 10.5-hour escapade, including waterfalls, ATV riding, and the DC-3 plane wreck. Travelers who love adrenaline-pumping adventures and stunning natural wonders should book this tour now.

Your excursion starts at 9 am at the BSI bus terminal in Reykjavik. Here, you'll board a comfortable bus with Wi-Fi, setting off towards the magnificent Myrdalsjokull glacier, beneath which the infamous Katla volcano lies. 

You'll stop at the quaint Hvolsvollur village, a perfect spot to buy lunch. Alternatively, you can bring a packed lunch for the day.

Upon reaching the mighty glacier, you'll gear up for an exciting two-hour ATV ride. The first leg of your ATV adventure will have you cross riveting rivers and traverse raw landscapes, eventually leading you to the breathtaking Dyrholaey promontory. From this remarkable viewpoint, you'll get a panoramic vista of Iceland's rugged southern coastline, a sight that will etch itself in your memory.

Next, your ATV journey will lead you to the dramatic landscapes of the Solheimasandur black sand beach. This strikingly desolate terrain, framed by the ocean on one side and mountain ranges on the other, offers a stark contrast that makes for an unforgettable visual experience. 

It's here you'll find the famed DC-3 aircraft wreck. This haunting yet intriguing spectacle has been frozen in time since 1973. It forms a surreal backdrop against the barren black sand beach, perfect for capturing memorable photographs. This uncanny attraction has been featured in various international films, including a Bollywood movie, and also appeared in Justin Bieber's music video, "I'll Show You."

After your ATV ride, your driver will take you to the mesmerizing sights of two of Iceland's most famed waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss. 

At Seljalandsfoss, prepare to be amazed as you can walk behind the cascading water. This unique experience, coupled with the stunning landscape surrounding the falls, creates a magical atmosphere that's both refreshing and invigorating.

Following Seljalandsfoss, you'll come face-to-face with Skogafoss. Known for its impressive width and height, Skogafoss presents a majestic spectacle of water thundering down, often creating a vivid rainbow in the mist on sunny days. This enormous waterfall, framed by lush green cliffs, is truly a sight to behold.

After a day filled with thrilling adventures and stunning sights, you'll take a relaxing bus ride back to Reykjavik. Arriving back at the BSI bus terminal around 7:30 pm, you'll have the chance to reflect on an unforgettable day filled with breathtaking sights and experiences.
