Description

Combine two unbelievable glacier adventures with this snowmobiling and ice-caving tour on Langjokull glacier. Any traveler in Southwest Iceland seeking unforgettable sights and thrilling experiences should grab their place while availability lasts.

This tour begins when you meet your guides at the Skjol base camp, between Gullfoss waterfall and the Geysir geothermal area on Iceland's Golden Circle sightseeing route. 

You'll board a bus, and your guide will drive you to the foot of the country's second-largest ice cap, Langjokull. They'll tell you about the magnificent landscapes around you, local folklore, and life in Iceland as you travel.

Langjokull glacier is in the western part of Iceland's highlands, spanning approximately 367 square miles (950 square kilometers). Its ice feeds into several rivers, contributing to Iceland's fresh water supply. It's a picturesque and serene destination for adventures on the ice.

Once you reach the glacier, you'll disembark and dress in the safety equipment provided. You'll then get a briefing on operating a snowmobile before boarding yours and setting out on the adventure of a lifetime.

Nothing compares to the excitement of a snowmobiling excursion. Adrenaline will pump as you race across the gleaming terrain, marveling at the awe-inspiring landscapes surrounding you. In clear weather, you'll have fantastic views of the south and the remote highlands. 

Two people ride on each snowmobile, so you can enjoy the thrill of taking the wheel or relaxing. A single supplement is available upon request for solo riders.

Once you reach the ice cave, you'll disembark your vehicle for the second part of this excursion. The ice caves of Iceland are among its most spectacular features. The blues are vivid, the scale of the corridors and caverns is unbelievable, the textures are otherworldly, and the way light shines through the translucent walls is breathtaking.

You'll have plenty of time to explore and photograph this natural phenomenon before returning to your snowmobile for another exciting ride back to the starting point.

After returning your equipment and enjoying your ride back to the Skjol base camp, you can continue your day in Southwest Iceland. 

You could grab a meal from the cafe or head out sightseeing. Remember you're in the heart of the Golden Circle driving route, so you're in an excellent spot for discovering top attractions and hidden gems.
