What to expect?
Join us on a Private 3-day south coast Northern Lights Adventure, where you will see some amazing places along the coast, as well as hunt for the Northern Lights.We will start by exploring the Golden Circle, visiting Thingvellir National Park, Geysir Hot Springs, and the Gullfoss Waterfall. We will also have a rare lunch experience at the unique Friðheimar Greenhouse restaurant and unwind at the warm and cosy Secret Lagoon. After dinner, we will hunt for the amazing Northern Lights.
After breakfast on day 2, we will head to the South Coast and enjoy the 60-m high (196 ft), Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, from behind. A small trail takes you around the waterfall giving you a unique view from behind the waterfall. The majestic Skógafoss Waterfall is the next visit. Skógafoss tumbles down 60 m (196 ft) from a broad cliff and on a sunny day, the mist from the waterfall produces a beautiful rainbow. Learn about global warming and its effect on glaciers in Iceland by visiting the Sólheimajökull glacier. Sólheimajökull is an outlet glacier from Mýrdalsjökull that sits on the active Katla volcano. We can also add a glacier walk to your visit to Sólheimajökull (book the glacier walk as extra when you book your trip). Reynisfjara Black Beach and Reynisdrangar await to be explored but watch out for those sneaky waves. They can be very strong. We will stop at Vík village before heading to the accommodation.
After breakfast on day 3, we will start by visiting Fjarðrágljúfur Canyon and Skaftafell National Park and hike to the beautiful Svartifoss Waterfall. Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon is a 200m (656 ft) deep glacial lake fed by Breiðamerkurjökull Glacier, an outlet glacier from the largest glacier in Europe, Vatnajökull. Enjoy the floating icebergs and perhaps seals that happen to swim by. Fjallsárlón is another Glacier Lagoon that you will have the opportunity to enjoy. Diamond Beach, the black beach in front of Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, is often filled with icebergs from the lagoon of different sizes and shapes and sparkle like diamonds in the daylight. You can book a boat trip on the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon if you wish, as an extra. We drive along the South Coast back to Reykjavík.
