About this experience
Embark on an extraordinary journey along Iceland’s stunning South Coast with our exclusive Private Luxury Tour. Over the course of 10 hours, you’ll explore some of the most breathtaking landscapes the country has to offer, from majestic waterfalls to black sand beaches, all in the comfort and style that only a private luxury tour can provide.
Your Personalized Adventure Begins
Your day starts with a private pickup from your hotel or preferred location in a luxurious vehicle. With your personal driver and guide, you’ll enjoy a fully customized itinerary tailored to your interests, ensuring an intimate and unforgettable experience. As you travel, your guide will share fascinating insights into Iceland’s history, culture, and natural wonders.
Seljalandsfoss Waterfall
Your first stop is the iconic Seljalandsfoss waterfall. This stunning waterfall cascades from a height of 60 meters, and one of its unique features is the ability to walk behind the waterfall itself. Feel the mist on your face as you take in the power and beauty of this natural wonder, and capture incredible photos from different perspectives.
Skógafoss Waterfall
Next, visit the mighty Skógafoss, one of Iceland’s largest and most famous waterfalls. The thundering curtain of water creates a mist that often produces vivid rainbows on sunny days, making it a perfect spot for photography. If you’re up for a bit of adventure, climb the stairs to the top of the falls for a panoramic view of the surrounding landscape.
Sólheimajökull Glacier
Continue your journey to the Sólheimajökull glacier, where you’ll have the opportunity to witness the awe-inspiring beauty of this icy giant. Your guide will lead you to a safe viewing area where you can marvel at the glacier’s crevasses and ice formations. For those interested in a closer look, an optional glacier walk can be arranged (advance notice required).
Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach
After exploring the glacier, head to Reynisfjara, the world-famous black sand beach. Surrounded by towering basalt columns and the roaring Atlantic Ocean, this beach is both beautiful and dramatic. Your guide will share the geological history that created this unique landscape, as well as the folklore surrounding the Reynisdrangar sea stacks that rise from the ocean just offshore.
Vík í Mýrdal Village
Take a break in the charming village of Vík í Mýrdal, the southernmost village in Iceland. Your guide will recommend the best local restaurants where you can enjoy a gourmet lunch made with fresh Icelandic ingredients and regional specialties. Lunch is at your own expense, giving you the flexibility to choose what suits your taste on the day.
Dyrhólaey Peninsula
Dyrhólaey Peninsula, a natural arch and bird sanctuary offering panoramic views of the South Coast. From the top, you can see the black sand beaches stretching out for miles, the Reynisdrangar sea stacks, and even glaciers in the distance on a clear day. This is also a prime spot for puffin watching during the summer months.
Scenic Drive Back to Reykjavik
As your tour draws to a close, relax during the scenic drive back to Reykjavik. Reflect on the day’s experiences, from the thundering waterfalls and icy glaciers to the dramatic coastline, as you unwind in the comfort of your luxury vehicle.

Cancellation for this tour
Cancelling costs 20% of the price within 999 days of departure. If the operator cancels for weather or safety, you get a full refund or a new date.
If the weather cancels this tour
Iceland's weather is real. What usually stops this one is rarely: Silfra is spring-fed and sheltered, but access can close in a storm. Here is exactly what happens to your booking.
- 1Icelimo Luxury Travel decides, and tells us. Operators cancel when it is unsafe or pointless, and we back that call every time — we do not ask them to run anyway.
- 2We contact you by email, and by phone if your tour is the same or next day. You choose: another date if there is one you can make, or a full refund. There is no fee and nothing to argue.
- 3The refund goes back to the card you paid with, through Stripe, usually visible within a few working days. If this tour was one of several in your booking, the others are untouched.
What you do not get is the day back. If this is the only free day in your plan, put a spare day next to it — the planner leaves days free with the rest-day option. And if you want out because the forecast looks bad, that is your own cancellation: free until the cutoff shown above, the operator's policy after that.
Questions on the day: [email protected] · +354 497 1373. How cancellations work in Iceland →
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
- Priced per vehicle, so it is poor value for one or two people and good value for four or more sharing.
Read off the operator's own conditions. If none of it applies to you, this is a good one.

I absolutely loved my northern lights tour with Icelimo. Kel, our guide, was really nice, friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does. He took the time to explain everything, drove us away from the crowds and found the perfect spot to watch the lights dance in the sky. It was a magical experience and I highly recommend!!

Excellent service, they were always attentive to detail. I especially want to mention our guide, Briosh, for explaining everything in the places we visited. Iceland is wonderful, but it's so much better with a company and guide of this caliber. Thank you so much! Highly recommended for anyone wanting to go to Iceland.

The full-day, Golden Circle tour with Jan was remarkable and memorable. He was engaging, knowledgeable and enjoyable. And he easily accommodated the two 80-year olds with us. The scenery and conversation were excellent. A very well-done tour.

I am the owner of Discover Scandinavia Tours, a boutique tour operator located in Florida and specialized in creating excellent Scandinavian vacations for North American travelers. My team and I have been entrusting Icelimo Luxury Travel with our clients touring Iceland for a number of years and I simply cannot say enough positive things about them. When it comes to professionalism, attention to detail and customer satisfaction, Icelimo is simply impossible to beat. It is no wonder that our clients come back from Iceland raving about their experience. Thank you very much for such a wonderful partnership, Icelimo team!

Silfra snorkelling & diving — questions people ask
How cold is the water at Silfra?
Two to four degrees Celsius, all year. It is glacial meltwater filtered through lava for decades, which is why visibility runs to a hundred metres. You wear a dry suit over a thermal undersuit, so your body stays dry and warm. Your face, lips and hands are the parts that feel it, and after thirty to forty minutes in the water most people are ready to get out. Hot chocolate afterwards is standard.
Do I need to be a strong swimmer to snorkel Silfra?
No, but you must be comfortable in water. The dry suit floats you, so you drift along the fissure with a gentle current doing most of the work. You do need to be able to swim, and operators set minimum age, height and weight limits and ask about medical conditions on a form. Check the tour page for the current limits before booking. Glasses cannot be worn under the mask; contact lenses are fine.
Is Silfra snorkelling worth it in winter?
Yes. The water is the same temperature in January as in July, and the visibility is the same. What changes is the air: getting into and out of the suit at minus five with wind is unpleasant, and daylight limits the departure times. Fewer people snorkel in winter, so the fissure is quieter. If you are here between November and February and want it, book the earliest slot for the best light.
Can I dive Silfra without a dry suit certification?
Not on a standard dive tour. Operators require a dry suit certification or a logged number of dry-suit dives within the last two years, plus an open-water certificate. If you have neither, the two-day PADI dry suit course with a Silfra dive (/experience/19038/) gets you certified and in the fissure. Snorkelling (/experience/208/) has no certification requirement and shows you the same rock walls from the surface. Most people are happy with snorkelling.
