Glacier Lagoon, Jökulsárlón, located in the Vatnajökull national park. The lagoon is made up of meltwater from the massive glacier, Vatnajökull, and is everchanging from the force of the glacier retreats. When the ice breaks away from the glacier it wanders through the lagoon and towards the ocean, a truly astonishing sight.
Black Sand Beach, Reynisfjara, known for its dark sand, beautiful view, dangerous waves and fascinating cliffs and rocks.
Skógafoss is one of the biggest waterfalls in Iceland, with a drop of more than 60 meters and a width of 25 meters, and you can walk right up to, but be prepared to be drenched.
Seljalandsfoss is one of the best-known waterfalls in Iceland. It is 65 meters tall and it is breathtaking. A path leads you behind the waterfall, but do bring a raincoat as you will get soaking wet from the drizzle. It is fantastic walking behind Seljalandsfoss, especially on a sunny day when one can catch a rainbow.
Vatnajökull, also known as the Water Glacier in English, is the largest and most voluminous ice cap in Iceland.
Dyrhólaey, formerly known by seamen as Cape Portland, is a small promonotory located on the south coast of Iceland, not far from the village Vík. It was formerly an island of volcanic origin, which is also known by the Icelandic word eyja meaning island
The Diamond Beach is a strip of black sand belonging to the greater Breiðamerkursandur glacial plain, located by Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon on the South Coast of Iceland. Here, the icebergs which fill Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon wash up on shore, standing dazzling and defiant in stark contrast to the black sand beach.
Black Sand Beach, Reynisfjara, known for its dark sand, beautiful view, dangerous waves and fascinating cliffs and rocks.
We are stopping here by the fascinating old curch of Vík, for an exceptional view from above the town, enjoying the Blacksand beach and Reynisdrangar cliffs.
Vania and Orn made our trip memorable! We were travelling with our two small children, ages 3 and 7, and had a wonderful time. They were patient, informative, and made us feel welcomed. They even helped us with our little ones. There was so much beauty and wonder to take in.
If I could give 100 stars, I would. This is the best private tour we had. They were extremely nice, hospitable, and very informative too. We will definitely return to Iceland because of them. This tour made our Iceland Trip unforgettable. If you’re reading this review— You should definitely book this tour, you will not regret it!
We were so happy to sit back and leave the driving and expertise to Ern and Vania- everywhere you look, there is beauty. This was a full day tour seeing the highlights of the South shore. The waterfalls, beaches, glaciers and lagoons all had something unique and special to offer. Ern and Vania were fun to get to know, very attentive to what we wanted/needed, and provide safe and comfortable travel.
The whole journey was fabulous. We went with the Private vehicle tour from Diamond Tours. Orm our guide was fabulous. Knowledgeable, entertaining and courteous. We were in a Mercedes van which made the travel very comfortable. The sites we visited are breathtakingly beautiful. 14 hours flew by. This is a must do. Thank you Orm for making it a memorable experience!
Orn was our guide for the day and did an amazing job. He picked us up promptly at 7AM and kept my family engaged through what was a 15 hour day! We booked a zodiac boat ride on the lagoon (highly recommend) and he ensured we arrived safely there on time, but did not miss a stop along the way including lunch. Highly recommend Orn and Diamond Travel! 💎 🌟
This was an absolute joy of a tour. Oren and Vania were the best hosts and an absolute pleasure to be around. We have been in Iceland for two weeks, so they took us to some places off the beaten path.
We booked this trip because we wanted, as first timers in the country, to experience as most as we could from the country. Don't have any regrets about booking this trip. Our driver was friendly, willing and able to show the country, the southern part of it. The tour was originally set for 14 hours, but it was extended tp 16 hours! And our driver was willing to keep going. He is very proud of his country and wanted to shows us the beautiful and enchanted landscapes and attractions in the country. Highly recommended, especially if you don't have too much time to spend at the country and you want to use the opportunities up to the maximum extent.
Very nice experience with very friendly and helpful guides. The scenery was fantastic and makes for an interesting day trip.Definitively recommend it.
This was incredible. A little more effort than I expected trying to stamp your feet into the ice with crampons to ensure you didn’t slide. If you have knee problems, be advised. It rained the entire time so we couldn’t get s good view of the glacier we were climbing but still amazing. Layers are the way to go. Bring sturdy over the ankle shoes.
Just a tip . Was suprised to see no ice on the beach. Current and wind had left all the ice on the inner edge of the lagoon on the other side of the beach from the cafe.
A must see! Beautiful blue icebergs in the water & black sand beach across from the bridge at diamond beach. It was our favorite spot . If you need a hotel nearby we stayed at Hali country hotel which was great!
What an amazing tour of South Iceland. Very long drive but absolutely worth it. Glacier Lagoon is beautiful. Many nice waterfalls along the way.
Breathtaking amazing colours. Amazing to be able to walk amongst massive blocks of glacier ice. Tends to get busy even out of season
This was a wonderful private tour for my husband and I. We were picked up at exactly 8 am as promised in a very comfortable vehicle. It was a long day as there was much to see and our guide, Orn (Eagle) provided great information throughout the journey and at each stop. My husband forgot his phone in the vehicle at the end of the tour and he returned it promptly. I highly recommend this tour and our guide, Orn (Eagle)
Ören is a wonderful guide and really informative. He adjusted our trip since we had saw the falls the day before to spend more time in other points. He really made sure that we were taken care of and had a really vehicle. We really enjoyed the trip and not being on a giant tour bus.
I recommend to go to over the bridge to other side, where is less people. Then you can make nice picture without so many people ;)
Très grosse journée de route pour admirer la nature du sud dans toute sa splendeur. Nous recommandons cette expérience !
Great outing. Something unique absolutely to visit. We went around in half an amphibian. It was worth it. Seals were also present.
Unforgettable experience aboard the Zodiac's dinghy. Walking around the icebergs of the lagoon to the front of the glacier was exciting
Although we saw this lagoon immersed in fog, the spectacle of the numerous icebergs was really impressive. With the sun or in any case with more clement weather it must be really breathtaking. However, we were lucky enough to see several seals swimming, a really nice show.
