About this experience

Embark on one of Iceland's most sought-after tours, set against the backdrop of the infamous Eyjafjallajökull volcanic eruption of 2010. This dramatic event forever transformed the Icelandic landscape, as millions of liters of melted ice from Eyjafjallajokull surged down the mountainside, causing destructive floods on its journey to the Atlantic.


Our journey begins with a visit to the captivating Seljalandsfoss waterfall, one of Iceland's loveliest. Here, the adventurous can venture behind the thundering cascade, though caution is advised due to narrow and potentially slippery trails. In winter, the waterfall is artfully illuminated, allowing year-round enjoyment of its enchanting beauty.


Next, we explore a hidden canyon, adorned with lush green moss and unique flora, graced by a serene waterfall. Depending on conditions, we'll either stop at Gljúfrabúi or Nauthúsagil, both offering their own enchanting allure.


Get ready for some exhilarating action as we head to the Gigjökull glacier tongue. Our driver deflates the tires for a thrilling off-road experience, including splashing through glacier rivers. So, fasten your seatbelts, keep your windows closed, and let the adventure begin. Gigjökull is one of two glacier outlets from Eyjafjallajökull and was the focal point of the 2010 volcanic eruption.


Our final destination is Básar, nestled in Þórsmörk, one of the most breathtaking spots in Iceland. Here, you can embark on a short hike to explore the area's unique beauty. Þórsmörk is uniquely situated between three glaciers: Eyjafjallajökull, Mýrdalsjökull, and Tindafjallajökull. This natural ring of glaciers and mountains creates a micro-climate that shields the valley from the harsh Icelandic highlands weather. The result is a diverse flora, a magnificent landscape, and ever-changing rushing torrents crisscrossing the valley floor—an absolute paradise for nature enthusiasts.
