What you'll see and do
Diamond Beach
Our First destination would be the ultimate Diamond Beach, also known as Breiðamerkursandur or Crystal Beach, which is a stunning black sand beach located on the southeastern coast of Iceland, adjacent to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon. The Beach is a natural feature that was formed by the melting and sculpting of icebergs as they washed ashore. Nonetheless, the beach has become a popular tourist destination and is now equipped with a parking lot and an observation platform. However, Visitors can walk along the beach and admire the ice formations. During the winter months, the beach is especially magical, as the ice formations are often covered with snow, and the Northern Lights can be seen overhead.

Diamond Beach, Jokulsarlon, Reynisfjara
Ali picked us up right outside our AirBnB slightly before 0700. He was a terrific driver and very hospitable and gave us good tips about the trip and ideas for other aspects of Iceland. We got to Jokulsarlon around 1200 and got to see the glacier lagoon and then Diamond Beach. Incredible views and very happy to see the crystal like ice on the black sand in the sunrise sunlight in winter. Then we managed to arrive at Reynisfjara at sunset which was in our to do list. The Hálsanefshellir was quite a sight though many visitors were crawling over the rocks. We also ran along the black sand toward Dyrhólaey and got some nice sunset photos of the rock formations. Then we were driven back to our airBnB in Reykjavik around 1900. We had a fantastic time seeing some beautiful parts of Iceland. Ali made the experience great and he’s an excellent driver. Highly recommend this experience.

Our tour guide was Sam,...
Our tour guide was Sam, and he did a fantastic job ensuring that we saw as much as possible despite the limited sunlight in Iceland in January. Sam reached out the night before to introduce himself, providing us with his contact information for pickup. The tour was lengthy, but Sam made sure we took as many stops as needed to ensure our comfort. He answered all our questions and remained engaging throughout the tour. I would highly recommend him and this tour to others. We were a group of seven, and found this tour to be a great value compared to large group tours with similar itineraries.

Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.
How much does Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik cost?
+
Prices start at $1,885 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reykjavik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik take?
+
Plan for about 13 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reykjavik is not rushed.
Is Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 13-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reykjavik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reykjavik and add a light layer if any part of the 13-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reykjavik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Reykjavik?
+
On Outty we rank every Reykjavik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland, Silfra Snorkeling Between Continents Photos Included- Self Drive, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Reykjavik?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Reykjavik?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

+
Included: Private transportation; Hidden Gems; All Fees and Taxes; and Additional stops. Not included: Amphibian boat ticket (45 Euro/person). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 72 listed pickup locations in and around Reykjavik. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Diamond Beach Day Tour from Reykjavik?
+
