My husband and I had an amazing day. I can highly recommend this tour to everyone who comes to visit Iceland. Travelling by mini bus is much more convenient. We were picked up in time from the hotel we agreed on as we stayed at a different place. One of the highlights of the tour was our amazing guide Fannar. He was very informative, knowledgeable , fun and a very good driver. He brought us home safely. If you book this tour you will definitely get value for your money.

Next, we move on to the amazing Gullfoss waterfall where you can take a short walk down a pathway and get close enough to feel the mist of glacial water on your skin. Gullfoss is a powerful waterfall with a powerful history, which you will get to learn more about from an expert guide.
Last but not least is Geysir geothermal area, home to the geyser that all other geysers are named after. Strokkur is the most active one and erupts every few minutes so you are guaranteed to see an eruption up close.

Let us guide you through some of the most iconic attractions in Iceland in just 6 hours! This tour is particularly convenient for travellers who are staying in Iceland for a short period of time and want to make the most of it.
We start off at Thingvellir (Þingvellir) National Park, a site of historical, cultural and geological significance, not to mention immense natural beauty. From there we will continue to Gullfoss, the iconic waterfall where glacial meltwater cascades down into the deep and narrow Hvítárgljúfur canyon. Not only is it a sight to be seen, there is also some fascinating history surrounding Gullfoss that you will get to learn more about from our expert guides.
The final stop is Geysir, a unique geothermal area made up of hissing steam vents and bubbling mud pools, where you will witness the eruption of a geyser up close.
This tour takes you to South Iceland travelling through lush farmlands with views of powerful volcanoes, glaciers and thundering waterfalls.
First in a series of natural landmarks is Skógafoss waterfall, arguably the country‘s most iconic waterfall and one of South Iceland‘s star attractions. Viking legends tell of a treasure buried in a cave behind the waterfall.
From Skógafoss, you travel east to Sólheimajökull glacier for a 1-hour easy walk in a spellbinding glacier landscape. The combination of expansive views, jagged peaks, cool blue glaciers and wide-open sky provide a steady stream of amazing photographic opportunities.
Heading back to Reykjavik from Sólheimajökull is the iconic Seljalandsfoss waterfall, where you can literally walk behind a curtain of water — certainly a moment you’ll want to capture on camera.
Get ready to explore a land of fire and ice as you journey through Iceland’s most extraordinary landscapes on this unforgettable self-drive adventure! Begin in Reykjavik, the quirky and colorful capital, where steamy hot springs and thundering waterfalls set the stage for what’s to come. Venture along the Reykjanes Peninsula to Hveragerdi, the “Town of Hot Springs,” nestled amid steaming earth and bubbling geothermal wonders. Continue your adventure to the South Coast, where the misty beauty of Seljalandsfoss and the raw power of Skogafoss Waterfalls will leave you awestruck. Witness the mighty Eyjafjallajökull Glacier and drive through the black-sand beaches of Vik en route to Skaftafell National Park — a glacier-filled paradise with incredible hiking trails and stunning vistas. Head west toward Thingvellir National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where tectonic plates drift apart and history runs deep. Visit the surreal Hraunfossar and Barnafoss Waterfalls and stop at Deildartunguhver, Europe’s most powerful hot spring. Next, the wild beauty of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula awaits — with its dramatic sea cliffs, lava fields, quaint fishing villages, and rich marine life. Wrap up your journey with a visit to the famous Blue Lagoon, where you can soak in soothing geothermal waters surrounded by lava fields. Finally, return to Reykjavik, your heart full of memories and your camera packed with Iceland’s natural wonders.

This 10-hour guided tour is ideal for nature lovers of all kinds. Book this trip and travel along the South Coast of Iceland, one of the country’s most scenic regions, as far as Vik, a charming village surrounded by beautiful bird cliffs. In addition to its natural landmarks, southern Iceland is known for its plains that stretch to the horizon. Because of that, and suitable weather conditions, this area is the bread basket of Iceland.
Travel to the famous waterfalls of Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss, the latter of which has been featured in movies like 'Thor: The Dark World' and 'The Secret Life of Walter Mitty'. Walk behind the cascading water in Seljalandsfoss (please don't forget to carry your raincoat).
Get the chance to explore the world-famous black-sand beach of Reynisfjara. Also see its unique rock formations and columnar basalt. This is one of the most spectacular beaches in Iceland. However, we request our guests not to get too close to the ocean and follow the guidelines.
Your last destination of the day is the Sólheimajokull Glacier, where you can walk up to a small lake that has formed in front of the retreating glacier. We will head back to Reykjavik after the tour ends and drop you off at your accommodation.
