Then, head onward in comfort toward the village of Vik — nestled on Iceland’s southernmost shores. Gain insight into the island nation’s native flora and fauna, and take in fine views over the open countryside.
First, stop to admire the waterfalls at Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss — widely considered among Iceland’s most impressive natural attractions. Watch the water crashing over the rocks, and perhaps take the short hike behind the falls to appreciate them from a whole new angle.
Visit the Skógar Folk Museum, home to over 15,000 historical artifacts that help illustrate how Icelanders lived in centuries gone by. Explore a recreation of a baðstofa — a communal room where the household slept, ate and worked.
Continue on to Vik and admire breathtaking views of the Mýrdalsjökull glacier. On arrival, explore the pretty village and marvel at the towering cliffs, black volcanic beaches and the impressive Reynisdrangar rock formations. Afterward, take your seat on the coach for your return journey to Reykjavik.
