2-DAY SHOUTH COAST – ICE CAVE, SKAFTAFELL & GLACIER LAGOON
Join us for this great two-day tour along the south coast and enjoy all the best sites the South of Iceland has to offer.
In the winter, this tour provides a chance of catching the northern lights!
Itinerary:
– Day 1: Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss Waterfalls
Iceland 2 day south coast tour will start with a drive down route 1 that will lead us to the famous Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss waterfalls. On a clear day, you will have the opportunity to see the two surrounding glaciers, Eyjafjallajökull and Myrdalsjokull. Next is the coastal village of Vik where you will find Reynisfjara, the black sand beach.
As the day rolls by, we’ll head deeper into the countryside to our accommodation in Skaftafell, where we can enjoy a relaxing evening and recharge for the coming day. If the weather allows, we will top off our day witnessing Iceland’s quintessential natural phenomenon: the Northern Lights!
– Day 2: Skaftafell to Jokulsarlon
We will have an early start and head towards Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach.
Next, we head to an Ice Cave where our certified guides will assure a safe and exciting experience. Ice Caves are only found during the wintertime when the glacial rivers retract and the water freezes.
Please note!
Your safety is our priority and sometimes weather or road conditions mean that access to certain ice caves is unavailable and/or unsafe.
Our main ice cave in the winter is the Crystal Ice Cave. However, at times when it’s inaccessible, we’ll visit an alternative ice cave.
During the summer months (from April to October), we’ll visit the Ice Cave Under the Volcano. If it’s inaccessible, we’ll do a glacier hike instead.
