The Iceland South Coast one-day tour from Reykjavik was fantastic.

The Iceland South Coast one-day tour from Reykjavik was fantastic. The waterfalls were magnificent, especially Skógafoss, and the black sand beach was unlike anything I've seen before. The glacier was a unique experience, and our guide was very informative. The tour was well-organized and comfortable. My only wish is for a bit more time at the glacier, but it was an amazing day nonetheless.
