The adventure begins when we pick you up in Reykjavík in a small and comfortable minibus before heading straight to the South.
Our arrival is announced by the powerful theatrics of Seljalandsfoss. Bring a raincoat and you’ll be able to make the short hike behind the falls. The scene behind the fall and the trembling ground from the power of the falling water makes for an automatic Instagram blockbuster!
Further east along the coast is Skógafoss waterfall. Skógafoss is an incredibly picturesque sight. Tucked in a little gorge, the river Skógá tumbles down a 60 metre cliff before continuing down the landscape towards the Atlantic Ocean.
We will then head towards the Black Sand beach, or Reynisfjara, where you will be able to see one the most beautiful beaches on this planet, with a basalt rocs cave.
Arriving at our hotel in the South East, you will be accommodated in a room, have dinner and then meet your guide for further information about the Northern Lights.
Heading off the second day comes Jökulsárlón, the world-famous, one and only, glacial lagoon, an almost 300m deep glacial lagoon fed by Breidamerkurjökull, an outlet glacier of Europe’s largest glacier Vatnajokull. On the other side of the road the icebergs from Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon float into the Atlantic Ocean where they are quickly thrown back to shore by the tide and winds. This black sand beach, which is called Diamond Beach, is full of smaller ice rocks in all shapes and sizes, sparkling like diamonds in the daylight.
The second day will include the Skaftafell Blue Ice Cave and glacier hike activity. The exciting hike to reach the glacier will take around 20 minutes - we recommend wearing waterproof hiking boots that cover your ankles and have hard sole. Iceland's nature is dominated by glaciers and it is only possible to explore them with a certified guide and safety equipment. Your guide will share with you his expertise about glaciers, allowing you to truly appreciate this amazing natural phenomenon - spoiler alert… it will be blue.
You should be back from this unique adventure at around 19.30, depending on the traffic and roads conditions.
