​One of the best ways to explore the natural beauty of Iceland is to take private adventure tours, such as the Iceland South Coast adventure. At Basecamp Iceland, our team of local guides love sharing all of their favourite places and stories with tourists, giving you a cultural experience you will not be able to find anywhere else. In addition to our Iceland South Coast adventure tour, we also offer a selection of other day tours that are perfect for tourists of all ages. 

​The South Coast of Iceland is known for its selection of natural wonders and beauty, making it a popular tourist destination. Easily accessible along the Route 1 highway, which encircles Iceland, the South Coast consists of a diverse lowland that transitions between bays, marshlands, cultivated pastures, estuaries, and black sand deserts. This area is also known for its vast lava field, Þjórsárhraun, which helps protect the lowlands from the encroaching sea. 

​The private Iceland South Coast adventure tour from Basecamp Iceland provides a unique opportunity for tourists to see, up close, Iceland's South Coast and its impressive sites, such as Seljalandsfoss, Skógarfoss, and Eyjafjallajökull. During this private tour, your guide will lead you and up to five other travellers from Reykjavik through the lava fields and down the mountains, through Hveragerdi and Selfoss, all the way into Iceland's most fertile agricultural area. Here you will experience waterfalls, volcanoes, and glaciers on one side with grass fields and black sand deserts on the other. Since the private Iceland South Coast adventure tour is full-day tour, you will also have the opportunity to experience a selection of gourmet restaurants that use only the freshest and best local produce available.
