- South Region - South Iceland is celebrated for its breathtaking landscapes and natural marvels. Highlights include the magnificent waterfalls Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, both offering awe-inspiring views and unique experiences, such as the opportunity to walk behind the cascading water of Seljalandsfoss. The region also offers spectacular views of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano, famous for its 2010 eruption.
- Skogafoss - Departing from Vík, the journey heads back west towards the capital, but not before visiting two more essential South Coast attractions. First is the Skógafoss waterfall, a powerful natural wonder that leaves visitors in awe. Cascading from a height of 60 meters and spanning a width of 25 meters, the falls create a constant mist, producing vibrant rainbows on sunny days. Surrounded by lush greenery and dramatic cliffs, Skógafoss provides a stunning backdrop for nature lovers and photographers. Accessible via a scenic staircase, the viewing platform at the top offers a breathtaking panorama of the waterfall and surrounding landscapes, making Skógafoss a must-see for those exploring Iceland’s spectacular scenery.
- Vik - Vík is one of Iceland’s most picturesque villages. It is located on the wild southern coastline and is surrounded by magnificent scenery, including black sand beaches and basalt sea stacks. Overlooking the village is Vikurkirkja church, which offers a stunning view.
- Lava Show - The first stop of the day is the renowned Lava Show exhibition in Vík. The Lava Show uses basaltic tephra or black sand formed by historic volcanic eruptions on Iceland’s south coast. By super-heating this tephra in a specially designed furnace, it returns to its molten lava state. Experience real flowing lava in a safe and entertaining show where passionate experts explain and demonstrate the behavior of lava.
- Seljalandsfoss - Seljalandsfoss waterfall is one of Iceland’s iconic landmarks. Famous for its wonderful walking trail that allows visitors to walk behind the falls, Seljalandsfoss is an essential stop on any south coast tour.
After a 45-minute stop here, the journey continues back to the city.

Skógafoss is first seen from a distance, but as the tour approaches, its powerful roar becomes evident, with water spray lingering in the air. View the falls from ground level or take on the challenge of climbing the impressive stairway to the top.
