    Full description

    Explore the dramatic landscapes of the south of Iceland on a full-day sightseeing tour by bus. Go to the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon outlet of the largest glacier in Europe, leaning about its history and formation from your local guide.

    Following a pickup from your hotel in Reykjavik, transfer to the southern coast and the dramatic Glacier Lagoon. Enjoy plenty of time to see the floating icebergs and enjoy the stunning scenery.

    During the season, make sure to reserve your ticket to the boat cruise on the Jökulsárlón and experience the unique Glacier Lagoon spectacle up close. When you prebook, your place is guaranteed.

    Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon is Iceland’s largest and deepest glacier lagoon. It branches from Breidamerkurjokull, an outlet glacier of Vatnajokull, Europe’s largest glacier.

    Return to Reykjavik, stopping at the gorgeous waterfall Seljalandsfoss. You will visit the Diamond beach with black sand, and there will be an additional stop in Iceland's southernmost village at Vík for dinner.

    Amazing tour, the best experience I had on my trip to Iceland! The tour is a long day but it’s completely worth it, we saw so much and so many sights you don’t see on the closer tours to Reykjavik. Our guide was really informative and helpful. We saw lots of wildlife too, some seals at the glacier lagoon and two arctic foxes on the way there. There’s lots of free time at each stop and I didn’t feel rushed at all. By far the best trip I did in Iceland, definitely the highlight of my time there!

    Pick-up went smoothly and we were on our way in a few minutes.! Tom was an incredible guide - it was a very long day, so his great sense of humor definitely added color and kept us smiling. He was knowledgeable about the sites we visited, shared some wonderful tidbits about Norse mythology and showed us a few extras along the way. Pride for the natural wonders of his country, shone throughout the trip! Would highly recommend !

    Amazing. I came to Iceland to see the Diamond beach and it did not disappoint (except the rain). Shawn was informative and kept the large group on schedule to maximize the day. He ensured travellers got photos of themselves experiencing the tour sites. A very enjoyable day, in spite of the rain.
