Best small group south coast tour!

What an amazing day tour! Incredible landscapes, beautiful waterfalls and the highlight was seeing puffins up close. Our guide Mikki was excellent! Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

A great full day tour highlighting Iceland's amazing South Coast. Mikki, our tour guide was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and accommodating. Lots of interesting information and fired in a stop to see the puffins up close. Many happy memories to take home.

Great South Coast Day

Mikki was a great guide for our tour! Besides beeing a good driver we had a lot of fun, never felt rushed and he knew which spots deserve time and which can be "fast-pathed" to get the most out of the day. Hope to have him as a guide in the future, maybe to chase the northern lights over the waterfall, which he told is still in his own bucket list. Thank you for a great day!
