What they say about this tour

Vidir Kristjansson


Very pleased we planned our excursions through Snaeland Travel. Brynjar made the booking process simple and pleasant. Pick up from the airport to the Hilton Canopy Hotel with a two-hour Blue Lagoon stop was perfect and stress-free. Our full day private south shore and full day private Golden Circle tours were exceptional. Our tour guide Vidir was warm, knowledgeable and clearly enjoyed showing my family the highlights of Iceland. Highly recommend all around.

Private South Shore Adventure

A private tour is ideal for families or groups of friends who simply are looking to have a great time together. Skip the part where you need to wait for a pick up and switch busses and jump right into the adventure with your own driver and vehicle. A luxury which if you are a bigger group is not even more expensive than joining a scheduled tour.

Your own driver will pick you up at 9 am before we leave the city of Reykjavik and descend Heillisheiði plateau. After crossing the city of Hveragerði with its greenhouses we´ll take you along the south coast of Iceland, one of the country´s most scenic region. We will take you as far as Vík, a charming village surrounded by high beautiful bird cliffs.

Along the way we stop at the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall where you can walk behind the waterfall itself and through to the other side. 

We'll also stop at the majestic and much-photographed Skógafoss waterfall, with its impressive 60 m drop (196 ft). The waterfall has a huge flow of water which on sunny days allows us to see a rainbow or even a double rainbow in front of it.

Since it is a private tour we can also skip the town of Vik and instead add a glacier walk or a snowmobile tour for an additional fee, simply contact us if you want to add these.

Also you can consider visiting the lava tunnel. For all these services please contact us for prices.

En route all day long - stunning views of glaciers, black sand coastline and impressive rock formations. You are back in Reykjavik around 19:00 so you can have dinner back in town.

Included

  • Your own driver and vehicle.
  • Pick up and drop off in Reykjavik.
  • Guidance if you pick the more expensive option.

Tips and Trivia

  • Please stay on the paths for your own safety.
  • Skógafoss was featured in the movie "The secret life of Walter Mitty" as part of Afghanistan.
  • Did you know that the word "geyser" originates from the Icelandic Geysir?
  • If you are coming over the weekend check out our special offers including this tour.
  • Click here for a private tour including Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon.
  • Food can be purchased at some of the stops but we always recommend to bring something to drink and snacks.
  • If you want to add some adventure you can join this tour of the south which includes a glacier walk.
  • Check out our Bus Stops in Reykjavík page to find out about pickup in the city center.

Additional Information

Highlights

Skógafoss

This waterfall in South Iceland is one of the biggest waterfall in Iceland, measuring 25 meters wide and approximately 60 meters deep. With so much water flowing down, you will usually be able to see a single or even a double rainbow in front of Skógafoss on sunny days. If you have enough time you can take the stairs to the top of the waterfall and enjoy a great view. The river Skógá ('forrest river') plunges down the former coastline. At the bottom you will find the village Skógar with a popular museum that exhibits Iceland's past.

Reynisfjara

Near Vik you will experience the black beach Reynisfjara. Please be careful when wandering on the beach since the currents can be strong due to the fact that it is the open ocean. By the beach you find the restaurant "black beach" which since it opened a few years ago has become increasingly popular.

Seljalandsfoss

The river Seljalandsá which originates in the famous Eyjafjallajökull glacier plunges down about 60 meters. What makes this waterfall really special, however, is that you are able to walk behind it. Just remember to bring good shoes and a waterproof jacket, you might get wet! The ground behind the waterfall is not paved and uneven so please always be careful.
