Tour Outline

Your South Coast adventure begins with an easy pickup in Reykjavík before heading east toward one of the most picturesque regions in the country. As the city fades behind you, the landscape shifts into vast lava fields draped in moss, dramatic mountains, and wide farmlands where Icelandic horses and sheep roam freely.

Along the way, you’ll pass prominent volcanoes such as Eyjafjallajökull and Katla — the latter hidden beneath the enormous Mýrdalsjökull ice cap. With glaciers, coastlines, and towering cliffs unfolding around every turn, the drive itself becomes part of the experience.

Throughout the day, we’ll stop at some of the South Coast’s most iconic sites: powerful waterfalls, world-famous black sand beaches, and striking glacier viewpoints. It’s the perfect introduction to Iceland’s wild and varied landscapes.
