We make plenty of stops in order to explore the area by foot, and take a leisurely dip in the natural Highlands pool of Strústlaug. We then continue onto Laki area, the site of Iceland's biggest eruption ever in 1783, when an infamous eruption shook the country’s foundations and covered the land in ash. You'll see the row of craters left by the eruption, and explore the Highland lake of Langisjór.
After descending from the Highlands, we make sure that you don't miss the highlights of the South. The second half of the trip along the south coast is spent visiting Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon, Skaftafell National Park, black sand beaches, waterfalls, and the Golden circle.
