Description

Embark on an unforgettable adventure from Reykjavík as you explore the breathtaking Sólheimajökull glacier, visit two of Iceland’s most iconic waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, and see Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach. This small-group experience takes you deep into Iceland’s glacial and volcanic landscapes, offering a perfect mix of adventure, natural beauty, and fascinating geology. Your journey starts with a pick-up from Reykjavík, where you’ll meet your expert guide and travel along Iceland’s stunning South Coast. As you drive past lava fields, black sand beaches, and towering cliffs, your guide will share insights about Iceland’s unique geology and history. Upon arriving at Sólheimajökull glacier, you’ll receive all necessary glacier gear, including crampons and helmets. Your guide will provide a short safety briefing before leading you onto the glacier for an easy yet thrilling hike across the rugged ice.

The iconic Seljalandsfoss waterfall is known for its unique pathway that allows visitors to walk behind the cascading water.
