Enjoy a full day of adventure on Iceland's South Coast!
Tour Operator: ICELANDIA
On this meet-on-location combo tour, you visit two popular South Coast attractions, but in a unique way.
Your first tour is an ATV/Quad-bike ride on the black lava sands of Sólheimasandur. You will meet your guide at the Mýrdalsjökull Base Camp, where you will receive all the necessary gear and get a brief safety lesson before heading out to the black beaches on your quad bikes.
You get to take in some fantastic views of the glaciers and vast beaches of the South Coast before visiting the famous Sólheimasandur DC3 Plane Wreck.
After the ATV tour, you must travel on your own to our Sólheimajökull Base by Sólheimajökull glacier. You will get detailed driving instructions on your voucher if you book the tour. Once there, you will meet your kayaking guide, who equips you with a dry suit and other necessary kayaking gear.
He will also demonstrate the proper kayaking technique for your beginner-friendly sit-on-top kayak. When everyone is ready, you push away from shore and explore the majestic icebergs that have calved off the glacier.
Your guide will lead you around the lagoon to admire the glacier, its icebergs, and the steep cliffs of the surrounding mountains; from a perspective that can only be seen from the lagoon. After approx. + 90 minutes of paddling, you head back to the land.
Please note: All drivers must be 17 years of age or older and have a full, valid driver's license. According to Icelandic law, a learner´s permit, tractor, or motorcycle license is not sufficient. Single riders and groups with odd numbers are required to book a single-ride ATV. This tour is "meet on location" only.
We recommend you bring warm first and/or mid layer, e.g. a warm sweater and water resistant boots.
