About this tour

Iceland is a land of vivid colors, from the stark black, white, and grey of the volcanic landscape to the shimmering blue and green of its glaciers and rivers.

Don't miss the chance to explore the Icelandic Highlands, which are accessible and snow-free between June and November. Our trusty modified Jeep Wrangler Rubicon will take us on an unforgettable journey to the heart of this beautiful country, far from the tourist crowds.

We'll start the day by marveling at Hjálparfoss, a waterfall set against the backdrop of the active stratovolcano Hekla. This natural wonder is formed by the confluence of two rivers, Fossá and Þjórsá. Next, we'll visit Háifoss, the third tallest waterfall in Iceland, with a height of 122 meters (400 feet). From the viewing point, you'll also be able to see Granni Waterfall.

Before continuing our journey, we'll stop for lunch at The Highland Center Hrauneyjar. Then we'll venture deep into the Icelandic highlands to explore Sigöldufoss and Sigöldugljúfur, where you'll see some of the bluest water you'll ever encounter.

This day will be unforgettable, and I'll be there to capture stunning shots with my professional photography skills. The memories of the Icelandic Highlands will stay with you forever.
