Perfect

5.00The combination of the dramatic waterfall, the otherworldly black sand beach and the thrilling glacier hike made this part of the Iceland tour an absolute standout. Standing at the base of the waterfall, with water crashing down and mist rising all around, felt like stepping into a fantasy movie. The black sand beach, with its jet-black grains and crashing Atlantic waves, had an eerie yet breathtaking beauty—perfect for capturing unforgettable photos. The glacier hike was the highlight of the whole trip; equipped with crampons and guided by an experienced instructor, we trekked across the sparkling blue ice, explored hidden crevasses and learned about Iceland’s glacial history. Every moment was well-organized, safe and incredibly immersive, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Amazing! ...

5.00This was the most fun and breath taking tour I have made. The water falls and glacier hike are places that I'll take with me the rest of my life! Bjorn was our guide and along the road trip he provided us with the rich history of the country, background stories about the places where we were going to and even about the villages and towns that we were passing by. He is a kind person that loves helping and meeting people.
Amazing experience
