I thought the trip was great! We saw a lot, including puffins, waterfalls, geysers, and lots of animals. We also learned a lot about Iceland. I was lucky to have a good group too.

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.

Honestly I really enjoyed everything. But if I had to pinpoint a favourite I think it would be how often we saw the northern lights. Due to the extreme weather conditions - a blizzard in October, we saw them almost every night which I think makes us really lucky, as I was expecting it to be much harder to see them. Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised by the adaptability of our day plans by our TM and Driver when we needed to be kept safe, and had delays to departures on some days due to snow, icy roads, and strong winds - we still managed to see everything we would have in the end and made some surprise pit stops too! I was super stoked with the glacier hike, but it would be even more incredible if it was longer. The only way I think this trip could be improved would be to have the start time earlier so the first day is actually a full day, and start the travel straight away! Why do we need to stay in Reykjavík on the first and last night? It could easily be changed to make the trip feel like you see even a tiny bit more.
