Black Sand Beach Horse Riding Tour from VikSusan_C, Sep 2026
Tolt treat
Super cool. We ride horses on many other vacations but never Icelandic horses and their unique tolt gate. Glad to cross offf my bucket list. The horses were well behaved, and adorable - little crazy hair but what makes them so cute. The black beach is so unique.

Black Sand Beach Horse Riding Tour from VikTwinkiehimalayan, Sep 2026
Icelandic horses on the black sand beaches of Vik
We could not imagine our trip to Iceland without the excitement of this experience. The guides were so knowledgeable and patient. They told us how these revered Icelandic horses are protected and rested on vacations of their own. My horse Forseti - or president - was kind and a pleasure to spend time with. What a delight!

South Coast and Katla Ice Cave
Just back from an amazing day. Spent time at two fantastic waterfalls and the highlight was the trip to the ice cave. Absolutely brilliant tour guide Alex.
Highly recommend this experience

Sólheimajökull Glacier Hike – Adventure in a Small GroupCoffeeAndBiscotti, Sep 2026
You must do this tour!
Igla was our guide. She is perfect for this role: friendly, thoughtful, careful, curious, interesting. She made sure we all could handle the trek. Gave us tips to make the crampons work on the glacier, showed us many moulons and took pictures of all of us when we asked. I would recommend Igla and this company for the glacier hike. The highlight of our trip, and an outing we’ll talk about for a long time!

Ice Cave Tour from VíkmeganbK8695HU, Sep 2026
Amazing experience
AMAZING! We did a private tour and so glad we did. With the private tour I feel like we had such a unique experience. We were able to go all the way in the caves and were educated on the changing environment. If you are thinking of doing a private tour I highly recommend it vs a group tour. Davis was our guide and he was fantastic.

2 Hour Glacier Buggy Adventure to MýrdalsjökullHickof2, Sep 2026
Highlight of trip
Amazing experience! Fun, exciting, beautiful. You will see things and go places that other travelers are not able to see. Our guide Jordy was such a great guy & had so much knowledge about the places we visited. Please don’t cancel your adventure if it’s raining - it did not affect our trip at all.

This was an amazing hike! We learned so much about glaciers from our tour guide, Dennis. The scenery was breathtaking! You have to do this tour if you come to Iceland.

Fantastic trip to the land of ice and fire!
It was an amazing and memorable trip to Iceland. The day trip to the diamond beach and glacier with the boat ride is definitely a must do! Our guide was Lina , she was our guide for the entire trip including airport transfers. She is very prompt in communication so it was very easy to connect with her on WhatsApp before we even landed in Reykjavik. She was very knowledgeable and narrated the significance and importance of each and every single site we visited. She was also very flexible and took us to some additional attractions as she drove us to the attractions

Great trip, wonderful guide!
We had a great time on the tour. Our guide Jagoda shared lots of info on Iceland, including thoughts about food and snacks. She also made adjustments to planned stops, so that we could see certain sites at the best times and made some bonus stops along the way to take in the scenery. I liked that she seemed to enjoyed seeing all the sites herself, even though it was probably the hundredth time she has been there. The transportation was roomy enough, with 10 people in a vehicle with around 16 seats in the back, although the empty seats were mostly stacked with bags.The Glacier hike and boat tour on the Glacier Lagoon were definitely the highlights. On the Glacier hike, I really like how she made sure everyone was properly equipped and also using the equipment properly.Regarding pickup, given the big window of 30-40 min, I'd recommend letting people know in advance how many stops there will be that morning and where they are in the order. Even better, it would be great if text updates could be given (e.g., pickup one done, on my way to number 2). We were the last ones to be picked up, so we were wondering at the end whether we were forgotten.

Sólheimajökull Ice Climbing and Glacier WalkH6135JYsarahs, Aug 2026
Experience of a lifetime
Beaty was a fabulous guide! She was incredibly informative and so friendly. We had a blast getting to see the glacier and experiencing it first-hand, all the while getting to learn all about its history. Would recommend to anyone visiting Iceland!

3 Hours Katla Ice Cave Tour/Meet in Víkelusivechic, Jul 2026
Great tour with Fricky...but 100+ ppl at the caves
Our guide Fricky was great...friendly, warm, very experienced...really made our trip! The truck ride was about 45 minutes there, of which 15 minutes on the highway and the rest on gravel road towards the glacier. We went to 2 caves (one small and one medium); each experience is different as the glacier is always changing. Once you get there, there are a LOT of tours and people all waiting to get in and out of the caves and you have to "queue". I would say easily over 100 people and 10 tour groups all there at the same time. Our group only had 9 people, but other tours had more like 15-20 people who would take a long time on the paths. I would rate the trip itself more like a 3 or 4 star due to the sheer volume of people, but since we had SouthCoast adventures and Fricky our awesome guide...I am giving this 5 stars because of him. Thanks Fricky!

Awesome tour on Sólheimajökull
We had a great experience with Michal on the Sólheimajökull glacier tour! We chose a private tour because my youngest is 7 and was not old enough to join up with the larger tours.It was a challenging weather day, but he kept us safe and led a wonderful tour! We loved the experience. It was one of the best things we did on our trip to Iceland!
