ABOUT THE TOUR

​

Our half-day tour begins with a 4x4 ride in our modified Toyota Land Cruiser into the glacial valley, heading towards one of Vatnajökull´s glacial outlets. From there, we begin our hike across the valley towards the glacier. The 2km hike offers unique views of the mountains surrounding the glacier, building excitement and anticipation as we get closer to the edge of the ice.

​

Each season we always choose to visit the most beautiful ice cave Vatnajökull has to offer. Our aim is to avoid the crowds by timing the departure accordingly and first and foremost, only offer an extra small group experience, with maximum 6 persons on each tour.

​

We spend around 30-45 minutes exploring the ice cave. Our experienced local guides will give you tips and tricks for capturing the best photos of the most beautiful places. We will also share local knowledge of the area, the glacier and the surrounding glacial terrain.

​

NOTE: The ice caves for 2023-24 winter have not fully formed, we will not know exactly how they look until the start of the season.
