“If you want to maximize your sightseeing on the south coast, this is the right tour. Kristoff (Kiki) was a terrific guide and so incredibly accommodating. From the waterfalls, to the black sand beach, to the glacier lagoon, diamond beach, and ice cave - all were top notch. Kristoff even sprinkled in an impromptu trip to the Yoda cave for my 14 year old. High marks for this experience.”
Review of Iceland’s 14-hour Glacier Lagoon, Diamond Beach, and South Coast tour from Reykjavik, with practical tips on value, weather, and timing.
“First of all, this part of Iceland is gorgeous. Perhaps one should come down to southern Iceland and stay for a few days to enjoy everything. We were not prepared for a 15 hour day. We got on the bus about 7:15 am and got off the bus around 9:45pm. We then had to walk back to our AirbBnB. There were not enough bathroom stops, and when there was, there were too many people trying to use the facilities and stand in line (cue) to get something to eat, during the time we had at each stop. This was a big bus tour, not a small bus tour, so my…”

Review of Iceland’s 3-day Golden Circle and South Coast tour, with ice caves, glaciers, waterfalls, hotels, pricing, weather tips, and practical advice.
“Incredible trip with Arctic Adventures - well planned out, organized, and jam packed with amazing activities. The weather was spectacular for our 3-day tour, permitting amazing views of the landscape and surrounding glaciers. Be prepared to do a moderate hike with some incline during the summer months. The glacier hike was mostly a quick walk to the ice cave, but the cave made this stop worth it - otherworldly and magical!”

Explore Vatnajökull’s shifting ice caves on a small-group hike from Jökulsárlón, with crampons, expert guides, and time for photos.
“Our guide was great, and the ice cave itself is amazing. There's just too many people in the cave from multiple tours all trying to see it. And we were told it gets much more crowded at other times. I'm glad we went, just be prepared for it to be crowded”
Review of Reykjavik’s 14-hour Jökulsárlón boat tour, Diamond Beach, waterfalls, Vik, transport, value, and practical tips.
“Our guide spoke perfect English and added humor to his conversation. The narration was intermittent as sites were approached. The bus was good and almost full, about 30 guests. The boat at the glacier was too crowded but enjoyable. Loved being in the boat among the glacier. The boat trip was 20 minutes and was like a "duc" boat that enters the water from the beach more of an amphibious sort of boat. The weather was between 45-60 and sunny. Dressing in layers helped to maintain temperature control.”
Review of Troll Expeditions’ 2-day Iceland tour with glacier hike, natural ice cave, waterfalls, glacier lagoon, black beaches, and overnight stay.
“This was an awesome tour! My little sister and I really enjoyed all of the sites and especially the customer service. We asked multiple questions, via email address, leading up to the day of the tour and got speedy responses right back! We added a last minute hiking boot reservation two days before and they made it happen! Excellent customer service! We had an awesome tour guide, Hawk/Hark, who always kept us informed of the itinerary and sites we were visiting. He was very kind and personable. He shared lots of information with us and local knowledge, which I really appreciated. He didn't just share about the sites, but also…”
Review of a two-day Iceland tour from Reykjavik with waterfalls, glacier hike, Jökulsárlón boat ride, lodging, pickup, and Wi-Fi.
“I would give five star to this tour for the things they covered-The glacier hike was once in a lifetime experience, the guest house we stayed in near the glacier was awesome, The two waterfalls were great!! Our driver and guide was awesome! Our hiking guide was super great!! The only reason I’m giving three stars is they did not cover the plane wreck which they listed in there advertisement, they did not go to the Vik Village which was listed in their advertisement… that is not being honest”

Reach Iceland’s Glacier Lagoon, Diamond Beach, waterfalls, and Fjaðrárgjúfur Canyon on a long, scenic small-group day from Reykjavik.
“The tour was wonderful. Gummi filled us in on a lot of interesting history throughout the drives. There were enough food and bathroom stops, and 15 hours did not feel too long. We had rented a car but did not want to stress about weather. Weather changed so much multiple times so we were very happy to not have to keep track ourselves. Thank you Gummi!”
