Lava, then waterfalls, all in one day. The Vík Lava Show is a safe, hands-on look at molten lava before the day turns to Skógafoss, one of Iceland’s most powerful waterfalls. I love that the tour blends volcano learning with…
One day. Seven jaw-dropping stops. This guided run down Iceland’s South Coast is built for big scenery with short walks and smart timing, so you can hit Seljalandsfoss, Skógafoss, Reynisfjara, and the Vík area without turning it into a suffer-fest.…
One step off a slope, and Iceland feels different. In Vík, a tandem paragliding flight puts you above the south coast so you can see the coastline, weather, and terrain from a completely new angle. What I like most is…
Ice caves near Katla are the real deal. This Katla Ice Cave experience from Vík is built around a guided descent into the ice, using provided gear and a small group size (capped at 14). I especially like the way…

Ice caves and volcano ash, all in three hours. This is a Mýrdalsjökull glacier tour that takes you by super jeep to the Kötlujökull Ice Cave under Katla Volcano. You’ll strap on crampons, hike on ice, then step inside a…
Ice tunnels and crampons in the same tour. This Sólheimajökull Glacier hike turns a cold, gray place into something you can actually read and understand, with your guide pointing out ice formations, how they form, and what makes this glacier…
Ice under your boots beats any postcard. This is a non-technical guided hike on Sólheimajökull, an accessible outlet glacier of the larger Myrdalsjökull ice cap. You start in camp near Vik, get fitted with safety gear, then walk over snow,…
Glacier views from a zipline? That’s the hook here. This Vík adventure blends ziplining with short but real hiking, plus bird’s-eye views of the Mýrdalsjökull glacier and a fun stream crossing called the leap of faith. Two things I like…
Katla’s ice cave feels like another world. From Vík you ride in a Super Jeep into the highlands, then step onto crampons for a short walk that lands you inside the glacier. It’s built as a small-group outing, so you…
