South Coast Tour Iceland — Nordic Travel iceland

Would this be cheaper direct? No — we sell at Nordic Travel iceland's own price and take our commission from them, not from you. What you get here is one checkout across operators, one confirmation, and one place to change or cancel it. If you ever find it cheaper on their own site, tell us and we will match it or explain why we cannot.

About this experience

Your journey begins with visits to the famous waterfalls Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, where you can admire powerful cascades and stunning scenery. Continue along the scenic coastline to the world-famous black sand beach Reynisfjara, known for its dramatic basalt columns, roaring Atlantic waves, and unique volcanic landscape.

Along the way, enjoy views of glaciers, lava fields, charming villages, and the majestic Eyjafjallajökull volcano. This tour offers the perfect combination of sightseeing, photography opportunities, and Icelandic nature exploration.

Cancellation for this tour

No refund once booked. If the operator cancels for weather or safety, you get a full refund or a new date.

Sold out on your date?

Seats come back — a cancellation, or the operator adding a vehicle. Tell us the date and we will check once a day and email you if one opens. One email, then we delete the address; nothing else is ever sent to it.

Who this is not for

  • Not a good fit if you want a relaxed day: 12 hours is a long time on the road, most of it spent getting there and back.
  • Not for late risers on your first morning — the earliest departure is 06:00, and Reykjavík pickups start before that.

Read off the operator's own conditions. If none of it applies to you, this is a good one.

    Had a great time on the 14 day complete self drive. The itinerary was really good and the hotels and activities were all good. The provided book with route and recommended places to visit was extremely helpful, and the physical map was a help and a great memento of my trip. The staff I dealt with at Nordic Visitor were all very helpful. This is my second trip with them, other was to Norway. Would highly recommend them.

    We absolutely loved our 4-night, 5-day Nordic Visitor tour of the Ring Road and Golden Circle in Iceland. We were definitely on the go each day, but were satisfied with the amount of time we had at each stop. Everything was included in our tour except lunch. Those Icelandic hotdogs - crazy tasty! Our guide, Trausti, was the best of the best. He is a fabulous ambassador for his country and knows it inside and out, from history to landscape to poets and more. Every Icelander we met was welcoming and kind. Iceland is a living land, and the Icelanders have a great respect for her ability to change at a moment's notice. We never felt that there were too many tourists in Iceland during our stay. It was like everyone quickly got the message that Icelanders' respect for their land and each other automatically translated to visitors' respect in general. What an important lesson. We highly recommend putting Iceland at the top of your must-experience list and booking your tour with Nordic Visitor. They delivered a stellar tour lead by an outstanding guide. There's no way you won't be moved by this land and her people.

    Lauriane was our travel agent at Nordic Visitor she was wonderful! Every detail was planned out for us. Don’t hesitate to book your travels with them. Our 14 day vacation to Scotland went exactly as I dreamed it to be.

    We recommend Nordic Visitor to everyone we know considering a trip to Iceland. We’ve planned three trips with them. They are thoughtful, organized, and recommend places that you can’t find on your own. We’ve had a total of four trips to Iceland and we’ll be back for more, with Nordic Visitor’s help, of course!
