South Shore Adventure
This South Shore Adventure tour is ideal for nature lovers of all kinds. We take you along the south coast of Iceland, one of the country’s most scenic regions, as far as Vík, a charming village surrounded by high beautiful bird cliffs. Witness nature's showstoppers - Eyjafjallajökull, Seljalandsfoss, Skógafoss and more!
Among the stops on this tour are the gorgeous Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. What makes Seljalandsfoss so famous and interesting is that you can walk behind it. Skógafoss is something of a film star, having been used as a backdrop in films such as Thor: The Dark World and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.
We will also stop at Reynisfjara black sand beach, with the Reynisdrangar rock formations and columnar basalt. Additionally, we stop by Sólheimajökull glacier and walk up to a small lake that has formed in front of the retreating glacier.

Lava Tunnel Tour
Visit the lava tunnel Raufarhólshellir and witness the inner workings of a volcanic eruption while you walk in the path of a lava that flowed thousands of years ago.
This is a tour for the senses. Experience a new world, hear the talk of the cave and sense the forces of nature like you have never done before. Learn new things and step out of your comfort zone. Scenes from the Hollywood movie Noah, with Anthony Hopkins, were shot in this lava cave. You walk around 350 metres into the lava tunnel and the temperature in the cave is around 4 degrees, although it can be warmer outside and usually water leaks from the ceiling when it rains and snows, so we recommend raincoats.
Your Optional Excursions —
Golden Circle & Fontana Wellness Tour
This amazing day tour takes you around the Golden Circle to see three of Iceland’s highlights; Gullfoss waterfall, Geysir geothermal area, and Thingvellir National Park, before heading to Fontana’s natural steam baths.
The original sauna was built in the 1920s and was little more than a shack with two compartments, built above the hot spring that bubbles and gurgles below the ground. Today, a modern complex welcomes you to relax with various hot tubs and steam baths naturally heated by Icelandic hot springs.
Sky Lagoon Pass (from 12 years old only)
A thermal spa inspired by nature and culture... Immerse yourself in warmth of an ocean side geothermal lagoon as the dramatic North Atlantic stretches out before you. Above, glowing sunsets and stormy skies dazzle, and sometimes the dancing Northern Lights put on a stunning all-natural show. Sky Lagoon is about that Icelandic feeling of warmth and wonder. Join us for rejuvenation and inspiration at the edge of the world.
Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon & Diamond Beach
With its enormous and ancient icebergs breaking off from Vatnajökull glacier, this natural wonder of Iceland is a sight you absolutely cannot miss! The lagoon produces a feeling of incredible tranquillity as the 1000-1500-year-old ice silently drifts into the lake and slowly melts away. We stop at the gorgeous Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls, and pause at Vík í Mýrdal for dinner where you can walk to the black sand beach and see the Reynisdrangar rock formations.
