Excellent day tour to South Coast by Grayline. Travelled more than 800km today, with 6 stops. Love Jokulsarlon most with stunning glacier/ice pieces despite the strong winds & freezing cold temperature, managed to capture a few beautiful sunset photos which actually expressed the reasons why people come to Iceland.. amazing.Truly a bonus as we saw a glimpse of weak rays of Northern Light, just about half an hour before reaching Reykjavik.. thanks Yorn for a great day out.. tak

Long day with lots of travel, but well worth it! The add on boat on the glacier is a must. We had a wonderful day, and our guide was lovely. We also stopped on the way home as northern lights made an appearance which was the perfect end to a lovely day.

This was the highlight of our trip to Iceland, where I finally got to see a glacier and icebergs. I'd recommend paying the extra for the amphibian vehicle trip into the lagoon.We stopped at the falls at Skógafoss, Vik for an early lunch, where we could visit the Black Sand Beach, before stopping at the Glacial Lagoon, where I finally got to see a glacier and icebergs - for me, the highlight of our trip to Iceland. I'd recommend paying the extra for the amphibian vehicle trip into the lagoon. It was only a short walk from the lagoon to see the Diamond Beach.We stopped at Vik on the way home for an early dinner before having our final stop at the Seljalandsfoss falls.After looking for the Northern Lights all the way back to Reykjavik, we were treated to a fantastic display when we got off the minibus at bus stop no. 8!The scenery and the commentary from the driver all added to the trip. It was a long day, but well worth it.
