Immerse yourself in alien but enthralling black sands, looming mountains filled with glaciers and endless unnamed waterfalls in a field of purple flowers in the summertime.
In the winter its no less surreal, with the black sand melting in to the white snow and blue of frosen rivers, glaciers and waterfalls. The quiet yet humble majesty of black and white combining in to a picture of elegance and purity.
As we drive East to the town of Vík, we get to see quite a few glacier volcanos and witness how their terrifying power has sculpted the landscape to otherworldly effects.
We also see the evidence of how life has been altered by the power of the volcanos to meet the hard demands of surviving. The local founa is truly one of a kind.
If you join this tour in the summer we might get lucky and spot some puffins as a bonus.

Reynisfjara is a world-famous black-sand beach found on the South Coast of Iceland, just beside the small fishing village of Vík í Mýrdal.
