We drive through the scenic regions of south Iceland as far as Vík í Mýrdal. The village is located by the sea at the foot of steep bird cliffs. The black sandy beach stretches as far as the eye can see while in the sea just across from the village solitary cliffs stand out of the water like some kind of guardians.
Our drive east to Vík í Mýrdal will lead along the slopes of mountains above which towers the Eyjafjallajökull glacier with the infamous volcano of the same name underneath. On the tour we will stop at two of the waterfalls; Seljalandsfoss waterfall is particularly interesting for the fact that one can walk under and behind it. The other one, Skógafoss waterfall drops about 60m down from the mountain plateau. Whether you choose to walk right in front of it gazing up to the sky or walk up the steps to its top, it will be an impressive sight.
Skógar museum with a collection of old houses from the countryside and its history is another sight not to be missed. The tour ends in Reykjavík in early evening hours.
