Itinerary

  • Seljalandsfoss

    Seljalandsfoss is one of the best-known waterfalls in Iceland. It is 65 meters tall according to the National Land Survey of Iceland and it is breathtakingly beautiful. It is a must visiting Seljalandsfoss when visiting the south-coast, you will not regret it!

    45 minutes

  • Skogafoss

    Skógafoss is possibly the most famous waterfall along Iceland's Ring Road, simply by proxy of being within an easy drive of Reykjavik and being prominently visible from the highway, however the falls are quite significant and make a very strong and lasting impression when they first come into view. Most of the filming locations in Iceland are easily accessible for visitors, including the famous Skógafoss Waterfall in South Iceland where the famous TV shows Vikings and the Marvel movie Thor was filmed.

    45 minutes

  • Dyrholaey

    Gorgeous natural rock formation in Southern Iceland, located between Seljalandsfoss and the small but charming town of Vik. The rock formation/mountain is home to several species of birds and known for stunning views of the south. The actual formation is cut off from pedestrian traffic. There are two ways to see Dyrholaey, the road that goes up and the road that goes down. The roads are not fully paved, so they recommend SUVs for most roads in Iceland. The road going up offers views of the rock formation and the bird watching/nesting area (check for the season if your an avid birdwatcher) and the southwest beaches of Iceland's coast...the view is so expansive, on a sunny day you can see all the way to Skogafoss! The road going down offers a view of the southeast, and a different perspective of these rock formation. Truly beautiful views on all accounts, and a great spot for a picnic lunch.

    45 minutes

  • Volcano Eyjafjallajokull

    Eyjafjallajökull volcano is an ice-cap covered stratovolcano located to the north of Skógar (Skogar) and to the west of Mýrdalsjökull (Myrdalsjokull) glacier in southern Iceland. The area is located on about a 2 km wide pass of ice-free land between Eyjafjallajokull and the nearby Katla volcano with its overlying cap of the Myrdalsjokull glacier. The initial visual report of the eruption happened around midnight on 20 March 2010 when a red cloud was noticed lighting up the sky above the site. The eruption broke out with fire fountains when about a 500 m long fissure vent opened. Lava flows occurred and a minor plume of less than 1 km. Two new craters erupted about a week later, with spectacular fireworks of magma and lava flows.

Private tour with flexible guide

Published on Feb, 2025

Our private tour of South Coast for 8 started in the morning. Our driver and guide for the day asked us if there was anywhere special we wanted to visit and gave us an outline of how the day would go. Our 1 request was to do a Costco run and he was able to pull that off and get us to our sky lagoon appointment at the end of the day . We toured the entire South Coast and did not feel rushed . We had time where we wanted to stay longer . This is a very nice tour and highly recommend.

Stunning Icelandic Scenery

Published on Nov, 2024

I had a lovely 4 day break with my daughter in Iceland and we did three tours with Andres. He worked really hard to make sure we saw some Northern Light activity even though the magnetism was low. On the other tours we saw amazing scenery from waterfalls and glaciers to crazy rock formations and geysers. It was an amazing trip and thank youAndres for helping to make it so memorable.

Water, water everywhere

Published on Oct, 2024

Andreas was prompt, informative on the geography/geology of southern Iceland, and attentive to our needs. Whether it was extra time at a location, finding a great place for lunch, or getting in one extra waterfall, he made sure that our day was special.

We had an amazing time touring the Icelandic South Coast with Andre of Mercury Grail. He goes out of his way to ensure that you have a great experience. We definitely have many memories to cherish for years from this tour. He was very patient with us, knows a lot about Iceland, the history of Iceland and has a great sense of humor. Thank you for everything. John & Krystal
