Southern Countryside

During this tour in a group of no more than 26 participants, you will explore three of Iceland’s most stunning waterfalls – impressive Gullfoss, mighty Skogafoss and beautiful Seljalandsfoss, which tumbles out over a cliff, allowing you to walk behind it.

The geysers at the Geysir geothermal area are captivating - marvel as the heated waters bubble up and gush, sometimes 30m into the air.

Witness the diverse scenery of the south as you journey over vast glacial outwash plains to reach the Myrdalsjokull glacier, where there are spectacular walks and the chance for an optional snowmobile ride. With the ever-changing scenery, including the beautiful wooded Thorsmork Valley and Mount Hekla as well as the rugged south coast, your camera will be very busy!

The tour includes a visit to the world-famous Blue Lagoon.
