A real adventure by the South Shore of Iceland - one of the country's most scenic regions. Among the stops on this tour are Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss waterfalls. What makes Seljalandsfoss so famous and interesting is that you can walk behind it. Skogafoss, another famous Icelandic waterfall is something of a film star, having been used as a backdrop in films such as Thor: The Dark World, Game of Thrones, Eurovision Song Contest: the Story of Fire Saga, and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.

Your tour starts with a drive through lava fields by the actively volcanic Hengill mountain and then down to the rich coastal farmland. On clear days you can see Hekla Volcano. In the distance, the glacier capped Eyjafjallajökull Volcano will rise majestically above the coastal mountains at its base. Just off the coastline are the volcanic Westman Islands, an archipelago of around 15 small islands.
Your first stop is at Reynisfjara black sand beach, which is every photographers dream. The powerful Atlantic waves crashing on the black sands, the jagged basalt sea stacks, and the huge basalt-column cave are all sights to take your breath away.
After being amazed by the power of the sea you will head on to Vík. The village of Vík is the southernmost village in Iceland. Despite its small size (291 inhabitants), Vík is the largest settlement for 70 km (44 miles)!
On your way back to Reykjavík, youll stop by the powerful Skógafoss Waterfall where a short walk up a flight of steps takes you to one of Icelands most scenic views that includes glaciers, volcanoes and black sandy beaches. The last stop of your day is a visit to the ribbon-like Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, famous for the hidden pathway behind and around it.
