Why it's on Icebreaker
South Coast Day Tour
The Grapevine's panel named the South Coast the best day trip from Reykjavík in 2025: rugged mountains, countless waterfalls, epic beaches and, depending on how far you're willing to drive, glaciers. On these small-group minibus tours someone else is willing to drive. The standard stops are Seljalandsfoss, which you can walk behind, Skógafoss, the Sólheimajökull glacier tongue, and Reynisfjara, the black beach with the basalt columns and the Reynisdrangar sea stacks. The beach is known for its beauty as well as for its danger, so keep your distance from the waves. BusTravel Iceland, Nicetravel and EastWest run the ten-to-twelve-hour sightseeing version. Arctic Adventures' longer day adds crampons and a guided hike past meltwater streams and frosty blue crevasses. Pick-up is in Reykjavík. Food is not included.
From the Icebreaker app, curated with The Reykjavík Grapevine.
