Itinerary

1

Brú Base Camp

Begin the private journey in South Iceland

Meet at the confirmed base near Hvolsvöllur and set out east with a local guide. The private format creates a relaxed pace as waterfalls, farms and glacier volcanoes unfold along the Ring Road.

2

South Coast drive

Waterfalls, black sand and immense horizons

Travel beneath Eyjafjallajökull and Mýrdalsjökull through one of Iceland’s most cinematic regions. The guide can shape scenic pauses around weather, daylight and the interests of your party.

3

Vatnajökull country

Enter a landscape ruled by ice

Beyond Vík, black glacial plains stretch towards mountains and brilliant outlet glaciers. The approach to Skaftafell and Vatnajökull National Park reveals the extraordinary scale of Europe’s largest ice cap.

4

Jökulsárlón and Diamond Beach

Drifting icebergs meet the Atlantic

Watch luminous icebergs cross the glacier lagoon, then discover fragments of ice sparkling against volcanic sand at the nearby ocean shore. Seals, changing light and new formations make the scene different every day.

5

Return through the South Coast
