Highlights
  • Seljalandsfoss - Before heading on this journey, your guide will introduce himself and maybe tell a joke or two. While driving to your first location you will know all about how Icelanders are awesome and how we made it to top 3 bank crashes in the world history. Yes, we are tiny but we are capable of big things.

Your first location is the Lava Exhibition. Explore Icelandic lava, volcanos and all the history. This is truly a unique experience.

Next up is the waterfall everyone are talking about. The waterfall you can walk behind. The waterfall of rainbows and unicorns. Ok we took it to far. But standing behind this marvelous waterfall while the sun is shining, you get to see an Icelandic rainbow. The name of this waterfall is Seljalandsfoss. This is one of Iceland´s most beautiful waterfalls.

  • Skogafoss - After seeing rainbows and unicorns you will head to no less waterfall. The waterfall of forests, Skógafoss waterfall. There you can walk all the way up on top of it and see the water fall down 70m. Seeing nature sights like these are what travelling is all about.
  • Dyrholaey - A short drive further to the east of Iceland is the island that is not an island. It has an island in the name for some reason though. The name of it is Dyrhólaey. You must have had this image of what the perfect nature moment looks like. There you have it. It is absolutely marvelous standing on top there and enjoying the view around you. This is the place that robs all of your words and you just can´t explain the motions you are experiencing and what you are looking at. Sometimes we have to drag people away because they just can´t stop marveling. You have black sand beaches on each side of you. The ocean. You have these amazing cliffs. Behind you is a glacier and beautiful mountains. It´s just to much at once.

Well we have to keep on though.

Ok just two minutes more.

  • Reynisfjara Beach - After you will go down to The Black Sand Beach or Reynisfjara beach. You have these basaltic cliffs on your left and Dirhólaey on your right. Out in the ocean are another cliffs. It´s just an amazing place to be at. Listening to the waves and marveling at all of this.
  • Glacier Lagoon - Your last location is the Glacier Lagoon. Have you ever seen huge floating Ice? It is nothing compared to ice in a glass. It is absolutely stunning to stand by it and see all these ice in the ocean. You are surrounded by this amazing environment with glaciers, black sand and the ocean around you.

In between you will have a lunch break and we will give you a taste of Iceland´s one and only Whiskey.

magical scenarios - I booked a private tour in Spanish for 5 friends. Wonderful views, incredible settings and the guide Emilie was excellent and stood out for her support beyond the tour service.

Wonderful! - We had a wonderful time! We actually did a two day adventure with an overnight in Vik. Johan was really wonderful to work with. He was responsive and accommodating and made this trip easy to manage. Arni was our guide and he had some great stories and a million things we could see. We saw some very cool things that are tourist hot spots and some things not many will ever see. Thank you!

Awesome trip to the south of Iceland, glacier lagoon and diamond beach - I went on a small group tour with Reykjavik out ventures to the south coast. We went to the glacier lagoon and diamond beach. The trip was 14 hours long but our nice guide Peter has made every minute of it enjoyable. Despite the rainy and somewhat windy weather, we had so much fun. The food was very authentic Icelandic soup and the ice cream that came after the soup was great. I would definitely choose to go on another trip with them.

Peter the Superman of Iceland - South Coast & Glacier Lagoon - This south coast tour was from an adventure pack that started from the moment we got on our silver minibus. And thanks to our superman peter, the sixty year old Icelandic champion was the greatest tour guide our group could ask for. I would definitely recommend this tour to all who are visiting Iceland for the first time. Sit back and relax the long trip that takes you everywhere in Iceland. See attached photos

Bad faith and accounting irregularities - Our group of five did two days of tours with Reykjavik Outventure. One was a South Coast tour, plus glacier snowmobiling. The other was a 4 hour ATV tour. Two major issues: 1) At the last minute, our tour guide (also the owner) backed out and said he had forgot about family commitments for those two days of tours. He instead sent someone who was nice, but who was not a tour guide otherwise for the past ten years. 2) We were significantly overcharged -- we paid for a group of seven, even though it was just five of us, and we only received one third refund. When I tried to see the accounting and be in touch directly with the snowmobile and ATV operators, Jóhann Guðni Jóhannsson (owner of Reykjavik Outventure) refused to engage or to give me any information. A display of bad faith and accounting irregularities.
