Itinerary
Tucked away near the village of Kirkjubæjarklaustur, Stjórnarfoss is a beautifully symmetrical waterfall framed by lush green hills and dramatic rock formations. Easily accessible via a short walk, this serene cascade offers a peaceful stop with fantastic photo opportunities, perfect for travelers looking to experience one of Iceland’s lesser-known natural treasures.
This unforgettable stop takes you to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, where massive icebergs float serenely across a vivid blue lake. You’ll have the unique opportunity to join a boat tour that brings you up close to the ice, offering incredible views and photo opportunities in one of Iceland’s most iconic natural settings.
Just steps from Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, you’ll also visit the stunning Diamond Beach, where glistening icebergs wash ashore on the black sand after drifting through the lagoon. The contrast of crystal-clear ice against volcanic sand creates a surreal and unforgettable scene, perfect for capturing one-of-a-kind photos.
During your stop in Vík, you’ll have the opportunity to purchase food and explore this charming coastal town. If the skies are clear, you’ll also catch a glimpse of Iceland’s southernmost point and the striking Reynisdrangar sea stacks just offshore.
At Seljalandsfoss, you’ll experience one of Iceland’s most unique waterfall, where you can walk behind the curtain of water for a truly unforgettable perspective. Don’t forget your rain gear, as the mist adds to the adventure and makes for spectacular photos.

Iceberg coast And glacier Lake
Great detailed and enthusiastic guide Vjeran,from history, great insights, happy demeanor and went above and beyond to bring a great trip and extra swing by black sand beach
Beautiful trip!
What a beautiful trip! Our guide, Vjeran, was the highlight of the day. He went above and beyond by making extra stops, helping everyone with photos, and keeping us entertained with his great sense of humor. He was kind, respectful, and very knowledgeable about every place we visited. Although the glacier lagoon boat tour was cancelled due to the weather, it was beyond the tour company’s control. Overall, an amazing experience with so much to see in a single day. Highly recommend!
Forever AMAZED by these sights
By far my FAVORITE tour of my Iceland trip!! The tour guide is very knowledgeable and friendly. He passed around a paper where the whole bus had a chance to ask him any questions. The glaciers were AMAZING to see in person. Definitely book the glacier boat tour!! The only piece of feedback I would give is to set aside time for diamond beach, it seemed like only those who didn’t go on the glacier boat ride had time to see. Also - just a note that this is a big bus tour. THANK YOU!
Experienceful day long trip with Dennis
Our guide (Dennis) made everything within his power to make the experience unforgatable, huge respect for him!
