The high mountains to the north, shield the area from the harshest winds from the north. We will 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 dangerous (guests are requested not to go too close to the ocean and go by guidelines only). Among the stops on this tour are at the gorgeous Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls. Seljalandsfoss is part of the Seljandsá river, which has its origins in Eyjafjallajökull glacier. What makes Seljalandsfoss so famous and interesting is that you can walk behind it (walk behind the falls can be done on your own, recommend guests to carry either a raincoat or a waterproof coat along if you want to walk behind the fall).

Skaftafell is a nature reserve located in Vatnajökull National Park in the South East of Iceland. It is an oasis of this nation’s diverse landscapes and features, so beautiful it was once a national park in its own right. Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon belongs to the Vatnajökull glacier. Huge blocks of ice (more than 1,000 years old) are continually breaking from it and large chunks of iceberg float in the lagoon. The ice-chunks take on so many forms and colours, ranging from transparent, to white, to the most amazing blue colour - some of the ice is black, it is like visiting an art gallery.
