Ice Cave & Super-Jeep Tour on Vatnajokull Glacier
This is your chance to experience one of the stunning blue ice caves in the Vatnajökull region of Iceland. Vatnajökull is the largest glacier in Iceland and the second largest in Europe. In the warmer summer months, melt-water runs below the surface of the glacier and hollows out caverns or caves.
The cold winter weather freezes the wall of these caves thereby making them safe to visit and explore. This is one of our most popular tours so join us as we journey to one of the more easily accessible ice caves for an unforgettable encounter with the crystal blue ice.
The meeting pint for this tour is Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, Please note that this is 370km east of Reykjavík so is not feasible as a day trip from the city
