Treat yourself to an iconic Icelandic hot dog at the city's most famous stand - you'll know you're at the right one when you see a line wrapped around the corner!
When the time comes, enjoy your included South Shore Excursion.
South Shore Adventure (RE15)
This South Shore Adventure tour is ideal for nature lovers of all kinds. You'll travel along the south coast of Iceland, one of the country’s most scenic regions, as far as VÃk, a charming village surrounded by high beautiful bird cliffs. South Iceland is special in that it is one of the flattest regions on the island. As a result, nearly all grain farming in Iceland is done there. The high mountains to the north, shield the area from the harshest northern winds.
Among the stops on this tour are the gorgeous Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. Seljalandsfoss is part of the Seljalandsá river, which has its origins in Eyjafjallajökull glacier. What makes Seljalandsfoss so famous and interesting is that you can walk behind it. We recommend you bring either a raincoat or a waterproof coat along if you want to stroll behind it which we of course highly recommend. Skógafoss, another famous Icelandic waterfall, is the starting point of the Fimmvörðuháls walk over to Þórsmörk. This most picturesque of all waterfalls is something of a film star, having been used as a backdrop in films such as Thor: The Dark World and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.
Next is a stop at Reynisfjara black sand beach, with the Reynisdrangar rock formations and columnar basalt. It is one of the most spectacular beaches in Iceland but can be quite dangerous due to powerful sneaker waves, and we kindly ask our guests not to go too close to the ocean and follow all guidelines. Last is a stop by Sólheimajökull glacier and walk up to a small lake that has formed in front of the retreating glacier.
Day 3. Reykjavik
Get your camera ready -- it's time to explore the Golden Circle and Fridheimar Greenhouse! Take in stunning scenery and discover the magic of Iceland's otherworldly landscapes.Â
Golden Circle & Fridheimar Greenhouse (RE04)
This Golden Circle tour allows you to visit some of Iceland's most stunning sights. You'll see Geysir geothermal area with the hot spring Strokkur shooting a column of water high up into the air every 4-8 minutes, Gullfoss waterfall which is one of the most famous waterfalls in Iceland, and the UNESCO site Thingvellir National Park, which is both geologically and historically significant. You'll also visit Fridheimar Greenhouse and learn about growing delicious tomatoes in an eco-friendly way with the aid of geothermal heat which Iceland has in abundance.Â
Day 4. Depart Iceland
Pack your bags! Today, you will be transported to the airport for your flight home.Â
Until next time, Iceland.
