The day was not in our favor. Strong winds and snow made our day terrible. We basically did hop on hop off. Getting off from minibus taking photos and getting back in the bus. Otherwise, the south coast was beautiful! I am in US Navy and the wrecked plane was US Navy that ran out of fuel and crushed in black sand beach. I felt really sad that the body is still sitting in Iceland. The country is making lot of money out of this spot a tourist attractions, which is basically an American military craft.

The sites visited themselves were beautiful but the travel company were not honest with a change in itinerary. When we met at the pick up point we were asked if we were doing the hike (we were not aware there was a hike and this wasn’t an option on our booking.) Part way through the day we dropped part of our group at the glacier for the hike before going to the Dc3 plane wreck. We then went back to the glacier (a stop which stated 20 minutes on our itinerary), to be told we would be there for between 3-3.5 hours waiting for the hikers to finish. When I asked the tour guide to clarify and said we were not told of a 2-3 hour stop he merely shrugged his shoulders at me. There wasn’t even a restaurant or gift shop at the glacier to kill time!! To say we were angry is an understatement. I messaged Arctic Adventures whilst we were there and was fobbed of with ‘sometimes weather can caused perceived delays’. My friend and I looked through previous reviews and saw other people complaining about 2 trips being merged without them being told, causing long and unexplained delays. This is clearly what had happened with us as well. This delay also meant that we arrived at the last waterfall 5 minutes before sunset and had to rush to get photos before we lost the light. I was given a pitiful partial refund and told they would ‘rearrange’ the itinerary for future. We also did not visit a third waterfall that was on the itinerary, presumably because we ran out of time. Disappointing dishonesty from this company and they still didn’t own up to it.

Last Monday, we went to see Amazing waterfalls, fascinating to see D3 plane wreck and we had good laughs on the bumpy ride on the beach to see the wreck plane.
But one place called Reynisfjara we didn't know and missed it cos the driver didn't tell us or explain. Also, we are Deaf so probably he didn't bother to tell us to go and see Reynisfjara.

Next Tuesday morning, we went back again and the different driver told us to visit there and saw them ourselves.

There was a miscommunication with the driver and us last Monday.

I would recommend my friends to book the day tour.

This day tour offered visits to stunning waterfalls and black sand beach, views of rock formations, and glaciers. Puffins flew overhead and perched on the rock formations at the beach. Our tour guide offered plenty of interesting stories and facts about the scenery and Iceland in general. Our van was comfortable too. A very enjoyable day of sightseeing.

Fabulous day with fabulous guide. Saw some stunning waterfalls, black beaches, Vik, as well as what we had come to see. Plenty of time at each location, relaxed day in a small coach with plenty of friendly info from guide. The coach had some people doing glacier hike and some doing aeroplane so the group split for part of day but it was well organised and when we went to pick up hikers we saw bottom of glacier close up with a small lagoon with icebergs. All in all a fantastic day

It was a long day. But we really enjoyed it. Everything was as expected. Beautiful views and David was a good guide. Would have gave it 5 stars but the seats aren't made for tall people so really uncomfortable for such a long day. But other than that really enjoyed all the stops.

I loved that we got to take quick trip into Vik while waiting on glacier hikers. That was an awesome surprise.

Tour guide picked up on time at agreed location. Tour bus is new and clean but very squished seating for normal sized. The sout coast stops were spectacular! Our whole family just loved everything about this trip!

The tour is a perfect way to explore the south coast. Mitch was a great guide and made the long trip extremely enjoyable with his jokes and had good knowledge about Iceland. Really enjoyed the tour. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a tour in Iceland.
