A propos de cette activités

On the first day you will depart from Reykjavík. You will drive along Route 1 passing through small towns and enjoying the beauty of the Icelandic countryside. The first stop will be at the famous waterfall Seljalandsfoss, which is located beneath the Eyjafjallajokull volcano. Remember to ask your tour guide all about the colossal eruption back in 2010. Close by is the beautiful but less known waterfall Gljufrabui.

Next up is the stunning Skogafoss, a 60 meter drop of natural raw power that must be seen to be believed. You will then have the additional pleasure of visiting the secret waterfalls of Kvernufoss and Írafoss.

Then it is on to Reynisfjara, a black sand beach nestling under Mt. Reynisfjall. It is the seasonal home to numerous puffins that dive from its cliffs out to sea. Black basalt has been shaped into amazing different formations, most notably the famous Reynisdrangar.

At the end of the day, your accommodation awaits in Seljaland, a lovely country guesthouse located in a beautiful spot close to Seljalandsfoss. On the way there and during the night, we will look out for the Northern Lights, if conditions are favorable to see them.

On day two, you set off in the morning for a totally unique experience. A visit to the natural stunning Blue Ice cave will be the highlight of the day. After a drive through the lovely village of Vik, you stop at the Skaftafell national park where the amazing views will take your breath away!

You then continue to the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon. This famous lagoon is filled with huge chunks of ice that have cracked off Breiðamerkurjökull glacier and float slowly out to sea. Some icebergs wash on shore, lying on the vivid black sand like diamonds on satin and from there, your Ice cave adventure will begin.

The ice caves only form in the winter when glacial water freezes to create this unique natural phenomenon. Each season, the local glacier experts find the best caves to visit in an enjoyable and safe way. From the glacier lagoon, they drive you through the best of Icelandic highlands in a special Super Jeep to the ice cave. There you will have about an hour to explore and enjoy the magical blue caves. Please do not forget to bring your camera!

After this unforgettable adventure, you drive back toward the Jokulsarlon where you join the bus again to head back to Reykjavik. On the way back, you will of course be able to enjoy the beautiful nature of the South Coast and to make a quick stop in Vik village for some refreshments, while keeping an eye out for the Northern lights if conditions are right.

We were in Iceland at the end of March so we thought tour was the best way to see Iceland. The 2-day tour covered everything described in the tour. Our tour lady was super cool and amazing. She took care of us really well during a very bad weather day (super rainy). The waterfalls were wonderful even in the pour down rain. The Black beach was beautiful even in the pour down rain. The hostel we stayed over night was great. Rooms and bathrooms were clean. Breakfast included was very good. Jokulsarlon and the Glacier were beautiful. Overall, I would recommend the tour and would do it again if I come back to Iceland.

I took this tour end of Nov 18 and it was a great experience. The tour was very well and professionally organized, from communication with the Nictravel staff prior to departure, through the pick up and during the whole tour. The accommodation was in a lovely guesthouse on the South Coast, very clean and comfortable room and a great breakfast. My personal highlight of the tour was the Ice Cave visit on the second day which was done in a huge jeep but I also really enjoyed the waterfalls and the black beach on the first day. The tour guide David was super friendly and clearly very proud of his adopted country, he made the whole group feel very comfortable during the tour. I highly recommend this tour with the guys from Nicetravel.

Tour guide was very friendly and laid back he drove us to more than 6 beautiful waterfalls and beaches and to the glacier cave tour. The over night stay is at a hostel which was very nice and you get your own room. This tour was a top 2 overall my 6 day trip to Iceland. Highly recommended!
