Very informed guids and great views - We had two guides for this day excursion. One was our driver, Bjorn, who gave us such great insights on iceland and the life of icelandic people. Very intersting during the whole day! Then the Glacier Hike was very fun and impressive, but make sure to plan for waterproof clothing and shoes. Our guide for this part, Eli, had a lot to teach us about the ice activity in Iceland. Highly recommend! The stops to see waterfalls on the way and the black bleach were beautiful!

Great collection of stops - Great collection of stops in Iceland - the black beach specifically was amazing and we were given enough time to explore the area. Lots of opportunities for scenic pictures and all guides on my trip were friendly and knowledgeable about the local nature.

The experience was great.... - The experience was great. The time in the black beach was too short. People should be encouraged to eat on the bus to save the time.
The minibus seats were uncomfortable. Everything else was really fabulous.

Very beautiful scenery - The south coast itself is very beautiful, the glaciers are amazing, and you can also see sea leopards and paffins, but the stay time is too short, often there is no time to go to the bathroom, maybe it is really more suitable for self-driving.
