South Coast & Black Sand Horse Riding Tour
11 hours · From Reykjavík

This private tour pairs the South Coast in the afternoon light with an evening you will talk about for years: the Viking Story Night at Efri-Úlfsstaðir, a family horse farm on the land of Njál's Saga.
This is a fully private tour. Your group gets a dedicated driver-guide and a vehicle that belongs entirely to you from the afternoon until the drive home. No fixed pace, no waiting for other passengers, no compromises.
Your afternoon takes in the path behind Seljalandsfoss, the hidden canyon of Gljúfrabúi, the wide wall of water at Skógafoss, the edge of Sólheimajökull glacier, the basalt columns and waves of Reynisfjara and the cliffs of Dyrhólaey.
In the evening you arrive at the farm. You meet the Icelandic horses in the stable, then take a seat at a long wooden table in a candlelit barn, wrapped in a traditional wool cape if you like. A local storyteller brings the sagas, elves and trolls to life while you taste traditional Icelandic food and drink: fermented shark, dried fish, smoked lamb, Brennivín and Icelandic malt. It is a tasting, not a full dinner.
Throughout the day your driver-guide shares stories, small legends and practical tips about Iceland's nature, history and culture.
