A 10-night road trip in South Iceland and the Westman Islands, featuring glacier exploration, lava shows, snorkeling, and highland visits via Super Jeep tours.
An Iceland trip expert planned this 11-day route for a real client's June trip: South Coast, Landmannalaugar and the Westman Islands. It passed our checks for daily driving, highland roads and season, which is why it is one of the 177 expert-built plans in our Iceland itineraries.
The day-by-day plan below has every stop, with photos and what to see. Duplicate it to set your own dates, change the pace or swap stops; the original stays as the expert wrote it.
