# 2-Day Ice Cave & South Coast: Glacier Hike and Glacier Lagoon

In our comparison: #38 of 45 in South Coast Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Join us for a two-day adventure to Iceland’s spectacular South Coast. The journey's highlights include visits to the iconic Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls, a guided glacier hike on ancient ice, and the opportunity to enter a natural blue ice cave (Oct-Mar). You will explore the surreal beauty of Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon and the nearby Diamond Beach, followed by a stop at the famous Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach. In the evenings, you’ll have a prime chance to spot the Northern Lights thanks to a remote countryside hotel stay.

This comprehensive 2-day tour offers an efficient way to experience the vast geological diversity of Iceland's South Coast, departing from Reykjavík.

Please note: Northern Lights sightings are a natural seasonal occurrence and not a guaranteed guided tour included in our multi-day packages.

## Good to know

- Public transportation options are available nearby
- Specialized infant seats are available
- Suitable for all physical fitness levels
- The daily itinerary is subject to change due to weather, road conditions, and availability of activities. Activities may be moved between days. Your guide will always ensure the best and safest experience possible.
- The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon and cannot be guaranteed by the operator. The hotels are in prime locations to maximize chances of seeing them.
- The limit is 24″ suitcase per person, and no multiple luggage allowed. If there is limited space in the car you might need to leave part of your luggage in our luggage storage, which can be added as an extra during the booking process.
- Please contact us regarding pick up. There are some hotels where buses are not allowed to drive. You can find information about designated pick up locations at busstop.is or ask the front desk of your hotel. Pick up from Keflavík airport or outside of the greater capital area is not available.
- We recommend you bring hiking boots with slip-resistant soles if you are visiting in the winter. Hiking boots are available at the time of booking.
- Ice caves are a dynamic natural phenomena only accessible during wintertime when temperatures drop. Each year new unique caves are formed in different areas of the glacier. We visit a naturally formed ice cave during this tour. The photos are from this winter season, but the cave and other formations we visit might have changed due to the nature of formations.
