8Two-Day Small Group Experience along the South Coast & Jökulsárlón, including an ice cave visit.
Lace up your hiking boots and join us on this two-day trip for close encounters with the wonders of Icelandic nature. Explore the South Coast with its iconic waterfalls and black sand beaches, and be the first to step into a blue ice cave of Europe’s largest icecap. To top it all off, we’ll have ample moments to hunt the magical, ever-elusive Northern Lights!
You will be picked up from your selected pick up location at the time stated on your voucher, please note that it can take up to 30 minutes to be picked up.
Day 1: Experience the drive down route 1 that will lead us to the famous Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. On a clear day, you will have the opportunity to see the two surrounding glaciers, Eyjafjallajökull and Mýrdalsjökull. Next is coastal village of Vík where you will find Reynisfjara, the black sand beach.
As the day rolls by, we’ll head deeper into the countryside to our accommodation in Skaftafell, where we can enjoy a relaxing evening and recharge for the coming day. If the weather allows, we will top off our day witnessing Iceland's quintessential natural phenomenon: the Northern Lights.
Day 2: We will have an early start and head towards Jökulsarlón Glacial Lagoon and Diamond Beach. Next we head to an Ice Cave where our certified guides will assure a safe and exciting experience. Ice Caves are only found during the wintertime when the glacial rivers retract and the water freezes.
Please note! Your safety is our priority and sometimes weather or road conditions mean that access to certain ice caves is unavailable and/or unsafe. Our main ice cave in the winter is the Crystal Ice Cave. However, at times when it’s inaccessible, we’ll visit an alternative ice cave. During the summer months (from April to October), we’ll visit the Ice Cave Under the Volcano. If it’s inaccessible, we’ll do a glacier hike instead.
We reserve the right to alter itineraries and/or timetables should it be necessary, due to adverse weather and or other related conditions.
