1. Take this opportunity to enjoy a one of a kind chance to walk behind the cascading waterfall. It’s best to have good shoes and waterproof clothing as this can be a wet, cold but exhilarating experience. The drive from Reykjavik is 1 hour 45 minutes.

2. One of the most famously photographed waterfall in Iceland where numerous movie or tv scenes were filmed such as Game of Thrones. Skogafoss is a 60 meter drop waterfall that you can see up close.

5. This coastal stretch is adorned with stunning landscapes that will leave any visitor awe-struck. It's the southern most part of Iceland. Travelers will have a view from the top of the popular church overlooking the magnificent horizon that extends to the Reynisfjara beach. This is a good stop for refreshments. Vik is approx. 30min away from Skogafoss and since this is the last stop the drive back home will take 2.5 hours

   1 h

6. This is the last stop of the itinerary before heading back to capital. This is another popular spot and usually crowded at peak hours so it's best to plan the stop wisely. Travelers will see magnificent basalt columns. At low tide, they can head to the cave that faces the ocean. The beach is powerful and dangerous so it's best to keep a safe distance. The black sand is naturally made of powdered lava.

About Reykjavik

Reykjavik is the northernmost capital of any nation, a colourful, compact city of art and music that opens onto Iceland's volcanic landscapes.

The landmark Hallgrímskirkja church, its tower inspired by basalt columns, rises above streets of brightly painted houses. Down by the harbour, the glass-fronted Harpa concert hall shimmers on the water, and the Sun Voyager sculpture faces the sea toward Mount Esja. Laugavegur, the main shopping street, is lined with design shops, cafés and bars.
