You Will Enjoy Your Day with Ionut As Your Guide!
Ionut was our excellent driver and guide for this tour. Despite the rainy weather, he managed to give us a well-organized and enjoyable overview of this fascinating island, including waterfalls, a glacier, and volcanic rock formations. We made a nice stop for lunch at the black-sands beach, and the food there was wonderful. My wife and I cannot imagine a better guide than Ionut, and we give him our highest recommendation!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much, Richie, for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled that the guide made your rainy-day adventure so enjoyable and memorable, and we truly appreciate your kind review!

A must do gorgeous tour
This was an incredible tour. Simon was our guide from EastWest tours and he is really quite a skilled guide. I was a little nervous to be in a bus for so many hours, but he talked the entire time and I mean that the best way possible. He gave us fascinating information about the history and the land and it was both helpful and entertaining. It made the many hours on the bus a lot more fun and tolerable. He took great care of all of us and made many stops so we could stretch our legs and get food and use the bathroom. He had helpful and insightful details about every stop and gave us incredible recommendations for the rest of our stay. I do not like black licorice, but I tried it due to his urging, and I loved it! This tour was so stunning and my photos are unreal gorgeous. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much, Meghan, for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled that the guide's knowledge, care, and great storytelling made the long journey enjoyable and memorable!

Wonderful day!
Booked our tour with South Coast Summer Day Tours, because I wanted a small group, turned out to just being the two of us. Company messaged me to see if a small vehicle would be ok, I said fine with us. Antone our driver picked us up at the hotel at 8 right on time. He was very nice, asked if we needed to be back at a certain time for dinner reservations, which I thought was very considerate. He was very informative, and funny, we had a great day. Being just the two of us, it was perfect, and catered to our needs.A stop for coffee, bathroom break if needed, and lunch in Vik which was excellent. I had looked at a lot of tour companies, and I’m very happy I chose South Coast Summer Day Tours! Thank you Antone for a great day! Oh right he even gave us ponchos to wear to go behind waterfall!, much needed! We loved our trip to Iceland! And you were a part of it!

Excellent tour, amazing nature!
This was an excellent tour that me and my family really enjoyed. Special thank you to our guide who was not only very knowledgeable and taught us LOTS about Iceland, but he was also incredibly flexible with us with the time we spent at each spot, since there was no one else on the tour. We really appreciated him!! (I'm so sorry I don't remember his name but he was from Lithuania if that helps). We got safely and comfortably to each of the tour's destinations. The locations were actually not too crowded at all so we felt like we could really enjoy the beautiful nature and views. Every landscape and viewpoint we went to was so beautiful, we will remember our Iceland trip for a long time and a large part of this is thanks to Back to Iceland! :-)

Great day seeing so much of the South Coast
This is such a great route, which we felt encapsulated the best of a lot of other tours we saw that hit some highlights along the South Coast of Iceland. Anton was a great driver and entertained us the entire drive. Highly recommend.

Why this scores 78
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
South Coast Summer Day Tour in Small-Group from Reykjavik: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.
How much does South Coast Summer Day Tour in Small-Group from Reykjavik cost?
+
Prices start at $90 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 South Coast Summer Day Tour in Small-Group from Reykjavik take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 South Coast Summer Day Tour in Small-Group from Reykjavik worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 49 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 South Coast Summer Day Tour in Small-Group 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 South Coast Summer Day Tour in Small-Group from Reykjavik suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book South Coast Summer Day Tour in Small-Group from Reykjavik?
+
Around 17 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does South Coast Summer Day Tour in Small-Group 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, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater, Reykjavík Small group Walking Tour - by CityWalk. 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.
