We start the day by picking you up at your accommodation in Reykjavik in our modified super jeep. We will drive you towards Hvalfjordur Fjord on our way to Borgarfjordur, where we will visit Deildartunguhver, Europe’s most powerful hot spring.

After that, we drive further inland to Hraunfossar and Barnafossar waterfalls and on to Husafell woodlands, where we will make a short stop for lunch (not included).

After Husafell, we will take you off the main road and take the highland trail to Iceland’s second-largest ice field, Langjokull Glacier. Now, it is time to put our super jeep to the test by driving on the glacier.

If the conditions allow, on the way back to Reykjavik, we will take you over the highest mountain road in Iceland, the “cold Valley” or Kaldidalur. This will lead us back down to Thingvellir National Park, one of the most beautiful and historical places in Iceland.  (Note: This road is open only during summer or when conditions allow. In case of a road closure, we will adjust the route accordingly and skip this section and Thingvellir National Park)

If you want to take the tour up a notch, you can add an entry to the amazing Into the Glacier ice tunnel on Langjökull glacier. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the magnificent glacier landscape from the inside out with an expert guide.

The Silver Circle is the perfect tour for those who wish to experience Iceland at its best.

Morning Pickup and Departure

Start your unforgettable journey with a convenient morning pickup from your accommodation. We’ll head out along Iceland’s picturesque South Coast, offering breathtaking views and the opportunity to glimpse iconic landscapes. As we leave civilization behind, we’ll make stops at some beautiful hidden gems and lesser-known waterfalls, such as the serene Hjalpárfoss, and the breathtaking Sigöldugljúfur canyon.

Scenic Journey to Landmannalaugar

We’ll venture into Europe’s largest true wilderness area, a pristine and barren tundra, historically treacherous and far from the crowds. We navigate the rugged mountain roads, truly showcasing the capabilities of our super jeep. This part of the journey is as thrilling as it is scenic, with volcanic deserts and vast, uninhabited landscapes stretching out before us. The area’s history is rich, with many stories of early settlers and their perilous journeys across these lands. Our local guides are always ready to share anecdotes and historical insights, enhancing your experience with fascinating tales.

Exploring Landmannalaugar

Upon arrival at Landmannalaugar, prepare to be amazed by the stunning scenery. During the summer months, the multicolored rhyolite mountains create a vibrant tapestry of yellow, red, fluorescent green, purple, brown, black, and white. This area is perfect for shorter hikes that provide spectacular views of volcanic deserts, rugged lava fields, inactive explosion craters, and waterfalls.

In winter, Landmannalaugar transforms into a magical snowy wonderland. The deep snow adds a serene and enchanting quality to the landscape. Access to this remote area becomes challenging, making the super jeep tour an essential and thrilling way to reach these hidden sights.

A Relaxing Dip in the Hot Springs

No matter the season, a visit to Landmannalaugar wouldn’t be complete without a dip in the natural hot springs. In the summer, it’s a refreshing break amid your hikes. In winter, the experience is truly unique as you soak in the warm waters surrounded by banks of melting ice and snow—a mix of hot and cold that is nothing short of a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Don’t forget your bathing suits and towels!

Views of Mt. Hekla

On clear days, you might be lucky enough to see Mt. Hekla, Iceland’s most active volcano, from quite close. Known historically as the “Gateway to Hell,” Mt. Hekla has erupted numerous times since Iceland’s settlement, blanketing the landscape with ash and pumice. Our guides will share fascinating stories about this powerful volcano, adding depth to the breathtaking views.

Customizable Experience

On the our way back to civilisation, we might be able to add another secret stop or two. Our tours usually follow a flexible itinerary within the given time range, allowing for extra stops based on group wishes. Whether you want more photo opportunities, additional hikes, or a deeper exploration of certain areas, feel free to ask our local guides. They are dedicated to making your adventure as personalized and memorable as possible.

As the day draws to a close, we’ll journey back, filled with the day’s thrilling experiences and unforgettable sights. This is more than a tour; it’s an adventure that offers a rare glimpse into Iceland’s most pristine and varied landscapes. Prepare for a long, exhilarating day that you will remember for years to come.

From Reykjavik we will make our way towards the cliffs of southern Iceland. Our first stop will be at Seljalandfoss, the famous waterfall that travelers can walk behind, and its impressive neighbor, Gljúfrabúi, or the hidden waterfall, that does not often appear in guidebooks. As we travel along the coast we will pass Eyjafjallajökull, the volcano that caused chaos in European air traffic in 2010.

We will continue our southern route to Skógafoss, a waterfall that measures 60 meters high and 25 meters wide and is one of the biggest in Iceland. Here we will have the chance to enjoy the surrounding area and climb to the waterfall's highest point. Our next stop will be in Reynisfjara, a black-sand beach that boasts impressive basaltic rock formations and views of the famous trolls that, according to legend, were petrified when caught in the sea at sunrise.

Dyrhólaey will be our final stop of the day, and from this lookout point high above the sea we will observe interesting lava formations as well as large puffin colonies that nest here in the summer months (mid-June to mid-August).

This is a unique day tour to several spectacular sites along Iceland´s South Coast. You don't want to miss it!

Tour guided in English and Spanish (español) in small groups with stops at Seljalandsfoss, Gljúfrabúi, Skógafoss, Reynisfjara and Dyrhólaey.
