WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1.
Seljalandsfoss Waterfall is a spectacular natural wonder . What makes this waterfall unique is the fact that visitors can actually walk behind the cascading water, providing an unforgettable and immersive experience. The waterfall is approximately 60 meters high and is fed by a glacier river originating from the Eyjafjallajökull volcano. The water falls into a shallow pool, which is surrounded by lush greenery and rocky cliffs. The constant spray from the waterfall creates a misty atmosphere, which often produces stunning rainbows. Aside from walking behind the waterfall, visitors can also hike along the surrounding trails to get a better view of the waterfall and the surrounding scenery. The area is known for its diverse flora and fauna, including various bird species, wildflowers, and mosses. Nearby attractions include the Gljúfrafoss waterfall,
2. Skogafoss
Skogafoss Waterfall is one of the most impressive waterfalls in Iceland, located on the South Coast of the country. It is a 60-meter high and 25-meter wide waterfall that drops into a small lagoon. The water comes from the Skoga River and the waterfall is surrounded by lush greenery and cliffs. What makes Skogafoss Waterfall special is its sheer size and power. Its thundering sound can be heard from a distance and it is a breathtaking sight to see. Visitors can walk right up to the waterfall and feel its mist on their faces. It is also a great spot for photography, especially when the sun is shining and a rainbow appears in the mist.Some popular things to do at this attraction include hiking up the stairs alongside the waterfall for stunning views, taking a guided tour of the area, and exploring the nearby Skogar Museum to learn about Icelandic culture
3. Dyrholaey
Dyrhólaey is a stunning promontory located on the south coast of Iceland. The promontory was formed during a volcanic eruption about 100,000 years ago. It is made up of alternating layers of lava and ash, which have eroded over time to create the distinctive shape of the cliffs. Dyrhólaey is also home to a lighthouse, which was built in 1910 and is still in operation today. The lighthouse offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape, including the nearby Reynisfjara black sand beach and the Mýrdalsjökull glacier. One of the key attractions at Dyrhólaey is the natural rock arch that spans the sea, known as the Dyrhólaey Arch. Visitors can hike to the top of the promontory and enjoy breathtaking views of the arch and the surrounding coastline. Another popular activity at Dyrhólaey is bird-watching. The promontory is home to a variety of seabirds, including puffins, guillemots, and kittiwakes. Visitors can observe these birds in their natural habitat from designated viewing areas.
4. Reynisfjara Beach
Reynisfjara beach is known for its unique black sand, basalt columns, and powerful waves. The geological history of the beach dates back to thousands of years ago when volcanic eruptions occurred in the area leading to the formation of the black sand. The basalt columns were formed by cooling lava flows, which later eroded into their current shape due to the constant pounding of the waves. Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach is famous for the basalt sea stacks that rise out of the ocean. These formations are known as Reynisdrangar and are said to be the remains of two trolls who were trying to drag a three-masted ship to shore but were turned to stone by the rising sun. Visitors to the beach can enjoy a scenic walk along the black sand, take in the stunning views of the sea stacks, and watch the powerful waves crash against the shore. It is important to note that the waves at Reynisfjara are known for their strength and visitors should exercise caution when exploring the beach.
5. Vik
Vík í Mýrdal is a small village situated in the southern part of Iceland, known for its dramatic landscapes and rich history. The area's geology dates back to the last Ice Age, as evidenced by the black sand beaches and basalt columns that dot the coastline. Vík í Mýrdal is unique in that it is nestled between two glaciers, Mýrdalsjökull and Eyjafjallajökull. The latter famously erupted in 2010, making international headlines and causing widespread disruption. The area has since become a popular destination for tourists looking to witness the aftermath of the eruption. In addition to its geological wonders, Vík í Mýrdal also boasts a rich history. The village was founded in the late 19th century, and its church – which dates back to 1934 – is a popular landmark. Visitors can learn more about the area's history by visiting the local museum, which features exhibits on the region's past. .Other popular activities include glacier tours, horseback riding, lavashow , ATV

My friends and I were fortunate to have gone on an Iceland South Coast tour with Sultan. He was patient and flexible with our itinerary. We saw amazing waterfalls, black sand beach, iceberg lagoon, and the Game of Thrones beach to cap off our day. In addition, he took amazing pictures of us. Thank you.

I went to a guided tour with my friends yesterday.
Our pickup was exactly the same as it was mentioned by our guide.
The trip was one of the best trips I had here in Iceland. We had so many tourist attractions to visit. The guide was very humble and friendly. One of the locations was a surprise visit for us, the black sand beach. We also had the photoshoot with professional camera and via drone. I would definitely recommend.

Adnan's South Coast Tour of Iceland is a breathtaking adventure that took us through some of the most stunning landscapes in the country. From waterfalls to black sand beaches, this tour left us in awe of Iceland's natural beauty and wanting to return for a longer stay.

The tour began in Reykjavik, with Adnan collecting us from our hotel. We took a private tour.. From there, we headed east along the coast, stopping at various points of interest along the way. One of the first stops is Seljalandsfoss, a magnificent waterfall that we could actually walk behind for a unique perspective.

Next, we visited Skógafoss, another impressive waterfall that is known for its sheer power. We climbed up the stairs next to the waterfall for a panoramic view of the surrounding area.

Continuing along the coast, we reached the black sand beach of Reynisfjara. This beach is famous for its dramatic basalt columns and towering sea stacks. If you go there, keep an eye out for puffins, as they often nest in the cliffs nearby.

As we made our way back to Reykjavik, we had the opportunity to stop at the charming village of Vík, known for its picturesque church and stunning views of the surrounding cliffs.

Throughout the tour, Adnan shared his knowledge of the area's geology, history, and folklore, making the experience both educational and entertaining. He is also a skilled photographer and helped us capture the perfect shot of Iceland's natural wonders.

The South Coast Tour with Adnan is a truly unforgettable experience that showcases the best of Iceland's south coast. We're nature lovers, adventure seekers, and this tour had it all.

There are no words that can describe the absolutely incredible, perfect day we spent with Mr. Sultan.

His communication and planning prior to meeting us was very timely, thorough, and helpful.

When we committed to him handling our day in Iceland, we spoke about some of the things that we wanted to do. He was early to pick us up and was in absolutely no rush to drop us off. We spent 14 1/2 hours exploring southeast Iceland including massive waterfalls, Black Sand Beach and the city of Vik, Diamond Beach where we saw ice from glaciers washing up on the black sand for us to pick up! We experienced Glacier Lagoon, Black Pizza, walked behind a very large waterfall and Mr. Sultan even saved time to go to several of his personal, beautiful, favorite places!!

There are no words to describe this day and we highly, highly recommend Mr. Sultan's services!!!!
