Come join us on this Privately Guided Tour through the South Coast during winter time and explore the most popular sights of Iceland. The South Coast, and the famous Golden Circle.
An unforgettable experience during a clear winter night is when the magnificent Northern Lights illuminate the dark sky creating a truly spectacular phenomenon
A private driver will be waiting for you at Keflavik airport to bring you to your accommodation in Reykjavik.
Depending on your flight time, your Iceland adventure begins in the famous Blue Lagoon Spa (Premium entrance included) with a swim and relaxation in the geothermal warm water. If you don’t have the time for this stop today you have this option on your last day.
Your guide will pick you up in the morning at your hotel and you will begin your trip by driving to Thingvellir National Park. Thingvellir is a place highly interesting from both geological and historical point of view. Here you can see the effects of the tectonic plate movements which has opened various cracks and fissures in the earth crust, and it was here that the Icelandic Parliament was founded in the 10th century.
You continue along the route of the “Golden Circle” with a visit at the famous geothermal site of Geysir where the Strokkur hot spring ejects its water column high into the air every 5 – 10 minutes. Numerous other small springs are boiling and bubbling all around.
Now there is only a short drive to reach Gullfoss, a spectacular waterfall which Icelanders refer to as the “golden” waterfall.
Before you check-in your hotel for this night you have the possibility to try out the geothermal hot water yourself by bathing in one of the many natural hot springs in this area.
Today you head towards Iceland’s South Region and the day will take you all the way to the small village Vík where you will encounter your secret Ice Cave adventure.
Along the way to Vík you stop at different places like Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, a small but a picturesque waterfall, and Skogar, where we will have a look at the Skogarfoss Waterfall, one of the highest in Iceland.
Vík village is worth visiting, located in an idyllic setting famous for the Reynisdrangar pillars that rise from the sea just off the shore. You can take a refreshing walk on the magnificent black sand of Reynisfjara beach with it’s basalt columns of all sizes and shapes, before you head back to Reykjavík.
Now it is time to head back home, after an amazing journey through one of the world’s most picturesque landscapes. A private driver will take you back to Keflavík Airport for your flight back home.
Depending on your flight time, you may be able to enjoy your last day strolling around Reykjavík or rexlax at the Blue Lagoon Spa if you did not have time upon arrival.
