It was a unique experience and I’m very grateful that I could enjoy this beautiful day with nice people and magnificent surroundings. Really wonderful.
Our guide Tómas "Eagle" was excellent and very informative! All along the bus ride, he explained tidbits of information from the area which was super interesting.
It was our bus driver's first day driving a tour bus in Iceland. I thought it was very unfair to him to have a 10 hour tour as his first! The tour itself was great! We saw so many waterfalls, the black sand beach, a glacier - it was awesome!! Pick up was pure chaos - the bus was plain white (no logo) and there was no sign in the front window. A lot of buses pick up at #12, that part could have gone so much better!
Tour was amaazing..our guide ..she is amazing ..all stops are worth seing ...she even recommended in doing the falls that we are going to get wet do last because she doesnt want us to get wet all day on the trip😄 thank you so much

Very enjoyable, amazing sights. Guide,Ana, was great
Overall, I had an amazing experience on the South Coast tour in Iceland. Everything was well organized from start to finish, and the communication was clear with time reminders and meeting instructions. The scenery was absolutely incredible. We visited stunning waterfalls where you can actually walk behind them, which was such a unique experience, and the views were unforgettable. The black sand beach was another highlight—dramatic, powerful, and unlike anything I’ve seen before. The guide and driver were both very professional and knowledgeable, which made the journey even more enjoyable. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Iceland.
Anna our tour guide was incredible. Super interactive, upbeat, entertaining. Tour was incredible. We got to hit all the main spots. I highly recommend
I made the trip in July, the weather was changing almost all the time, but luckily it wasn’t raining too much. The glacier and boat trip was definitely a highlight. It was a fairly large bus, more people than expected but it ran smoothly and was quite comfortable. The guide Denis is very knowledgeable and humorous, I learned a lot about Iceland even if it’s my second time visiting
