Sightseeing flight over black sands and riverbeds from Skaftafell Terminal

We came 5 friends. Photographers. The flight was amazing and we had the chance to shoot many things that we could never shoot from the land.. The company alerted us two days before the flight that the weather will be bad and suggested we change the flight schedule. We did so and came a day earlier The pilot was very kind and explained about the flight and what we will see. We had a great time.. I wish I will be able to do it again sometime..
