But it is still not 100% guaranteed.

    Your options from KEF Airport to Reykjavik;

    Most recommend: Shuttle Bus (FlyBus) $35-60 This will take you directly to your hotel.

    Private Taxi: A taxi from Keflavik airport to Reykjavik can be quite expensive. The price is calculated by a taximeter and can be upwards of (154 euros/171 US dollars).

  • We recommend getting to Iceland at least 1 day before the tour start date. Giving you time to unwind from your flight and travel time before an action-packed week ahead.

    Note: If arriving in Iceland before the tour starts, all expenses will be your responsibility.

TOUR ITINERARY


Itinerary

Day 1: Southern Coast Adventure

Pickups
Your journey begins with a pickup from your hotel in the morning. We'll hit the road right away, traveling along Iceland’s breathtaking Southern Coast. Our final destination for the day is about two hours away, but don’t worry—we’ll be making plenty of stops at must-see sights along the way to break up the drive and immerse you in the stunning scenery.

Our first two stops are the iconic waterfalls Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss. At Seljalandsfoss, you can follow a unique path that leads behind the waterfall, offering a rare and adventurous perspective. Skógafoss, with its wide and thunderous cascade, often rewards visitors with glimpses of beautiful rainbows when the conditions are right.

Afterward, we’ll explore another hidden gem—a secret waterfall tucked away in a canyon of rugged mountains, offering a serene and off-the-beaten-path experience.

Finally, we’ll head to the famous Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach. Known for its striking basalt columns and dramatic waves, this location is a true natural wonder.

Evening
Depending on the time, weather, and conditions, we’ll set out to hunt for the elusive Northern Lights either before or after dinner. Fingers crossed for a magical light show to cap off your first day in Iceland!


Day 2: Vík to Vatnajökull National Park

Our day begins with a scenic drive from Vík to the stunning Vatnajökull National Park, where we'll immerse ourselves in the glacial landscapes.

If time, conditions, and—most importantly—weather permit, we’ll set off to chase the Northern Lights, either before or after dinner. Let’s keep our fingers crossed for an unforgettable light show!

The Northern Lights, while breathtaking, are also highly unpredictable. With the guidance of an experienced expert, your chances of witnessing them increase, but they can never be guaranteed.

The Northern Lights can only be seen during specific times of the year, typically from September to early April. If your goal is to catch this natural phenomenon, make sure to plan your visit during this Northern Lights season.

Please note that during the summer months (May to August), the Northern Lights are not visible, and tours during this period focus on summer-specific attractions and experiences.

While we provide a detailed itinerary for your journey, flexibility is essential. Due to weather and other conditions, especially during winter, last-minute adjustments and spontaneous changes to the route are often necessary to ensure safety and maximize your experience.
