We’ll meet you at Keflavik Airport and begin our journey straight from the airport, heading towards the dramatic southern coastline. On the way to Vík, we pause to stretch our legs and warm up our lenses in the geothermal town of Hveragerði, then continue on to the iconic Seljalandsfoss waterfall, where we can walk behind the cascading water for a unique perspective.

Once we reach the charming coastal village of Vík, we check into our hotel for the night. As the sun begins to lower, we have free time to explore or capture golden hour shots from the picturesque viewpoint at Vík Church, perched above the village with sweeping views of the coastline.

Dinner this evening is flexible — enjoy a relaxed meal at the hotel, try one of Vík’s local restaurants, or take the opportunity for a quiet evening editing and reviewing shots from the day.

We continue on to Seljalandsfoss and the secretive Gljúfrabúi waterfall nearby, tucked away behind a rocky crevice. Time permitting, we may also be able to view a second DC-3 plane wreck near Eyvindarholt, less known but equally photogenic.

By late afternoon, we arrive in Selfoss and check into Hotel South Coast. The evening is free to explore the town, enjoy a local restaurant, or unwind ahead of the Golden Circle adventures to come.
