Jökulsárlón is the furthest of Iceland's great sights from Reykjavík, and for most people the most memorable. Icebergs calve from the glacier and drift slowly across a lagoon that has grown fivefold in under a century. Some reach the sea, and the waves push them back onto the black sand of Diamond Beach a short walk away, where they lie polished and catching the light.
Getting there and back is a long day on the road, which is why doing it privately makes a difference. Your group gets a dedicated driver-guide and a vehicle that belongs entirely to you. There is no group to wait for, no headcount at every stop and no fixed departure called out from the front of a coach. The pace is yours.
The lagoon and Diamond Beach are fixed. Alongside them you choose two more stops along the South Coast: Seljalandsfoss, Skógafoss, Dyrhólaey, Reynisfjara black sand beach, Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon or the Sólheimajökull glacier viewpoint. You pick them when you book, and we build the day around them.
We stop in the village of Vík for lunch and a proper break, roughly halfway. Your driver-guide drives this road year round and knows what each season allows. If conditions rule out one of your chosen stops on the day, we suggest the nearest alternative.
Full details are in the itinerary. Pick-up and drop-off anywhere in the Capital Area, including the cruise terminals, is included.
Choose a Private Sedan for 1-3 guests or a Private Van for up to 8 guests. One price per vehicle, not per person.
