Review Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon and South Coast Day Tour from Reykjavik

It was absolutely a wonderful trip for us. The bus was so comfortable that we did not feel tired though the travelling distance was more than 800km. Geri who was our guide was a wonderful guide. We were able to see the iceberg and other natural heritages of the South Coast. Absolutely amazing!!!!

Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon and South Coast Day Tour with hotel pickup and drop off by BusTravel Iceland was very smooth at 7.30am to 8pm. Itinerary is slightly different from the one published in Klook as we started with the magnificent Seljalandsfoss waterfall, passed by the Eyjafjallajökull glacier volcano on the way to Stjórnarfoss waterfall, Diamond beach, Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon and ended at Vik village for dinner. There are 2 main rest stops for lunch and dinner. A lot of time was spend travelling inbetween the attractions and there's only 30 mins at each site. Wished we could have more time especially at the Diamond beach & Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon while skipping Stjórnarfoss waterfall. Bus was quite warm and so it was always a relieve to get out of the bus for fresh air and visit the stunning attractions. Would be good if the guide can explain more on the things we passed by on the way as we had to search on Google maps and see where the bus is at and find out what is out there as we drove along. Driver Lucas was great in driving us safely to each spot in such long hours. If you only have time to do 1 tour, I would highly recommend this as driving on your own would be too tiring even though you can spent more time at the different site as you wished.

Honestly, I was a bit worried about the long travel time at first, but the bus made several stops along the way, which made the trip much more relaxing. The distance was totally worth it, the glacier is absolutely stunning! Definitely book the boat ride in advance; it’s a lot of fun and wet,(unless you get sea sick easy, also bring waterproof clothes and a pair of gloves!!!) and lets you get some amazing close-up shots of the icebergs.. yes icebergs...plural.

absolutely stunning… watching glaciers for so close is a once in a lifetime opportunity. also took boat tour later and it was totally worth it… must must visit

Our guide, Simon, managed time very well and we were able to visit two waterfalls, two glaciers (including the glacier lagoon), diamond beach and Vik! This tour is highly recommended for those who don’t have much time in Iceland as the itinerary is very complete. All the sights we’ve visited were beautiful and unforgettable. The best part was seeing the northern lights on our way back to Reykjavik. Although not part of the itinerary, Simon was also very knowledgeable about this and went above and beyond to make the best out of everything for everyone.

I really liked it, the route is long, but we constantly made stops at locations/snacks. All the locations mentioned in the description for the trip were there. The driver was very kind, he didn't bother with historical facts. Excellent impressions of the trip

the car is comfortable , with the jet-lag, we had a great sleep on the car ride so its not tough for us to survive though the 4 hours ride back. the schedule is good overall, we got enough time for each spot but not for lunch & dinner, understood that let to chase the daylight, howver its a bit difficult to finish a meal with order & toilet all within 30minutes. The spot are very great! and the tourist guide is very nice too. They are very ontime and stick to schedule, they also stopped a bit on our way back when they saw there is northern light! its great to have chance to look at this beautiful scene again even if its delay a bit the drop off time. we enjoy the tour!

This was one of the best day tours I’ve ever experienced, made truly exceptional by our fantastic guide, Sari. He was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing informative and fascinating insights throughout the day, while also keeping everything fun and engaging. We learned so much about Iceland and each of the incredible places we visited.

Sari was patient, approachable, and had a great sense of humor, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The sights were absolutely breathtaking, and the entire day was perfectly organized. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Iceland!

This is an essential tour when visiting Iceland. The journey there didn’t feel long, but the two and a half hours back without any stops was a bit tiring. By the time we arrived in Vik, the weather had turned bad, so we couldn’t fully enjoy the church and the nearby scenery. Overall, it was a great trip. The boat tour experience is also highly recommended.

Like what the guide said , the longest day trip as we finished most of the sightseeing spots in South Island within a day! but couldn’t enjoy anymore , as we were amazed by the stunning view !
