Private Diamond Beach & Glacier Lagoon Tour

A full-day journey into Iceland’s most breathtaking glacial landscapes

Diamond Beach is one of Iceland’s most mesmerizing wonders, a black-sand shoreline where crystal icebergs from ancient glaciers wash ashore and glitter like scattered diamonds. This luxury day tour carries you from Reykjavík deep into Vatnajökull National Park to explore the world-famous glacier lagoons of Jökulsárlón and Fjallsárlón, along with the spectacular scenery that surrounds them.
Beloved by locals and admired by travellers from around the world, this region reveals Iceland at its most dramatic and awe-inspiring, experienced here at a relaxed, refined pace.

A Day of Glacial Wonders

Your morning begins with a scenic drive along Iceland’s South Coast, passing moss-covered lava fields, towering sea cliffs, black-sand plains, and glacier-capped ridges before reaching your first major landmark.

Skógafoss – A Waterfall Icon

Your journey into the South Coast’s wild beauty starts with Skógafoss, one of Iceland’s most powerful waterfalls. Its towering curtain of water, swirling mist, and frequent rainbows create a spectacular introduction to the landscapes ahead.

Lunch at Klaustur – Elevated Icelandic Flavours

In the village of Kirkjubæjarklaustur, enjoy an included lunch at Klaustur Restaurant, warm, comforting Icelandic dishes crafted from fresh, local ingredients. It’s a delicious and restorative pause before entering glacier country. Klaustur Restaurant caters to all dietary preferences, including vegan and vegetarian options.

The Ice Realms

Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon

A world of drifting icebergs awaits at Jökulsárlón. Carved from Breiðamerkurjökull glacier, these blue-white ice sculptures float silently across the lagoon, creating a calm, ethereal scene. Seals are often spotted weaving between the ice.

Diamond Beach – A Glittering Shoreline

Just across the road, Diamond Beach dazzles with crystal-clear ice fragments washed ashore onto deep-black volcanic sand. The contrast of ice against darkness is one of Iceland’s most unforgettable sights.

Fjallsárlón – An Intimate Glacial Sanctuary

Your next stop, Fjallsárlón, offers a quieter and more dramatic encounter with Vatnajökull. The glacier descends sharply toward the water, giving you an up-close look at Iceland’s frozen giants in a peaceful, cinematic setting.

Vatnajökull National Park

Throughout the afternoon, you’ll explore the edges of Europe’s largest glacier, surrounded by volcanic deserts, jagged mountain peaks, sweeping plains, and icy horizons that define this extraordinary national park.

A Final Coastal Pause in Vík

On the way back west, you’ll stop in Vík, a charming coastal village framed by black beaches and the Reynisdrangar sea stacks.

FAQ

Explore our FAQ section to learn more about our services, booking process, and what to expect on your journey with Easy Transfer.

For private tours, your guide will pick you up directly outside your selected pickup location at the scheduled time. Please be ready on time to ensure a smooth start.

We recommend dressing for Icelandic weather, which can change quickly. Wind, sunshine, snow, and rain can all show up in a single day. Warm, layered clothing is especially important during the winter season, and comfortable shoes are essential, as many stops involve short walks on uneven ground.

We’ll make regular stops along the way for food and drinks to keep everyone energized. Some tours include lunch (check the tour inclusions), and if not, we’ll stop at our go-to local spots for a proper bite to eat.

Our tours are designed to run in a wide range of conditions. Iceland’s climate can shift quickly, and when it does, parts of a trip may need to be adapted. If that happens, we’ll aim to keep the experience as close to the original plan as possible or offer comparable alternatives.

Challenging weather is part of what makes Iceland unique, and it doesn’t automatically stop us from operating. However, guest and staff safety is always the deciding factor. Wind strength and road safety are closely monitored, and guides may shorten or end a tour if conditions become risky. If a tour cannot continue, a full or partial refund will be applied based on the circumstances.

Yes, private tours can often be tailored to your preferences. If you’d like to adjust stops or timing, please let us know in advance so we can confirm what’s possible.

Tours can be canceled free of charge up to 24 hours before the scheduled start time. Cancellations within 24 hours are non-refundable.

The Northern Lights are one of nature’s wild cards, incredible, but never guaranteed. While sightings can’t be promised, we’ll happily point out good viewing areas and keep you informed about solar activity and cloud forecasts to give you the best possible chance.

Tipping isn’t expected in Iceland, but it’s always appreciated when someone feels their guide went the extra mile. There’s no standard amount, it’s entirely up to you and what feels right. Cash tips are welcome in any currency.

Another great way to support both your guide and Easytransfer is by sharing your experience. Recommending us to others or leaving a review on platforms like TripAdvisor, Google, or Facebook genuinely makes a difference, and of course, telling friends about a great trip never hurts.
