## Itinerary

### Day 1: Reykjavik - South Coast

We will start our adventure at 8:00am in Reykjavík on the morning of the tour. Once everyone boards the minibus, we will start our adventure to the beautiful South Coast . Seljalandsfoss Waterfall Upon arrival, you will enjoy the powerful theatrics of Seljalandsfoss. Bring a raincoat and you'll be able to make the short hike behind the falls. The scene behind the fall and the trembling ground from the power of the falling water make for an automatic photo blockbuster! Skógafoss Waterfall Further east along the coast is Skógafoss waterfall. Skógafoss is an incredibly picturesque sight: tucked in a little gorge, the river Skógá tumbles down a 60-meter cliff before continuing down the landscape towards the Atlantic Ocean. Alongside the gorge, a staircase can take you to the shelf above the waterfall for stunning views. Glacier Hike in Skaftafell Start preparing for the most exciting activity of this 2-Day Tour - a Glacier Hike on the largest glacier in Europe. Upon arrival, we will meet a professional glacier guide, who will give us all the essential safety equipment (such as ice axes, crampons, harnesses, etc) and will take us on the glacier. After gearing up, we will start hiking on 2000-3000 year old ice. From October to March , you will have the opportunity to explore the newly formed ice cave . Your adventure begins at the Skaftafell terminal, where you will be equipped with glacier gear. Following that, you will embark on an exhilarating hike on the Falljökull glacier, where you will encounter stunning ice formations, moulins, crevasses, and other natural features. After a brief hike, you will discover the naturally formed Blue Ice Cave. During the months the ice cave is not accessible due to natural causes, we will head out on a glacier hike adventure.

### Day 2: Glacier Lagoon - the Black Sand Beach - Reykjavik

Expect a lot of adventures on the second day! We will see the beautiful Glacier Lagoon . Jökulsárlón: the Glacier Lagoon Jökulsárlón is a 200m deep glacier water lagoon fed by the melting of Breiðamerkurjökull, an outlet glacier of Europe's largest glacier Vatnajökull. Enormous icebergs also fall from Breiðamerkurjökull all year round so the lagoon is usually filled with ice blocks that floats South. We will start the morning with the most exciting activity of the day - a boat tour【 summer season 】 to enormous floating icebergs in the Glacier Lagoon - also known as Jökulsárlón. Diamond Beach On the other side of the road, the icebergs from Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon float into the Atlantic Ocean where they are quickly thrown back to shore by the tide and winds. This black sand beach is full of smaller ice blocks in all shapes and sizes, sparkling like diamonds in the daylight. The ice itself comes in all shades of white and blue forming beautiful contrasts. Reynisfjara: the Black Sand Beach We visit the Black Sand Beach of Reynisfjara where the Atlantic coastline presents massive waves hitting the unique basalt pillars in the cliffs above the sand. The cliffs of Dýrhólaey are seen in the distance. This area of the south is also a paradise for bird lovers, as puffins, razorbills and dozens of other species nest on top of these cliffs in the summertime. Back to Reykjavík We will then start heading back to Reykjavik and are expected to arrive around 20:00pm, though this may be subject to change depending on weather and road conditions.
