What Are the Must-See Stops on a Private South Coast Tour?
The South Coast is one of Iceland’s most diverse and dramatic regions—and a private tour lets you experience it without the rush. But what should be on your 2025 must-see list? Here are the most unforgettable stops you can expect on a personalized South Coast adventure:
1. Seljalandsfoss Waterfall
This iconic waterfall drops over 60 meters—and you can actually walk behind it. With a private guide, you can arrive before the big buses, enjoy the misty trail in peace, and get those once-in-a-lifetime photos.
2. Skógafoss Waterfall
Powerful, wide, and loud. You can climb a staircase to a panoramic viewpoint or stay below and feel the spray. Your guide can time the visit for the best light—ideal for photographers.
3. Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach
A surreal place with roaring waves, basalt columns, and sea stacks. Often busy, but a private guide helps you explore safe areas and share stories you won’t get from guidebooks.
4. Dyrhólaey Peninsula
Overlooking the ocean and the famous arch-shaped rock, this spot gives you panoramic views of the coastline—and, in summer, puffins. A great stop for drone footage or peaceful reflection.
5. Sólheimajökull Glacier
Whether you want to view it from a safe path or take a glacier hike, this is a breathtaking look at Iceland’s icy core. We can arrange certified glacier guides or photo stops based on your pace.
6. Vík í Mýrdal
The charming southernmost village, perfect for lunch and local shopping. A guide helps you skip tourist traps and enjoy hidden cafés or family-owned craft shops.
7. Optional Add-Ons:
Fjaðrárgljúfur Canyon (if heading east)
DC Plane Wreck (available by special request)
Hidden waterfalls and lava fields not found on tourist maps
