Private 7-Hour Summer Combo Tour with Zip-lining, Glacier Hiking, and Ice Climbing from Jokulsarlon

Embark on an exhilarating 7-hour combination tour featuring zip-lining, glacier hiking, and ice climbing in Southeast Iceland. Adventurous travelers seeking an unforgettable day amid breathtaking scenery should book this private summer excursion now.

Your tour begins when you meet your guide at the Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon parking lot in Vatnajokull National Park. It's in Southeast Iceland, 236 miles (380 kilometers) from Reykjavik. Therefore, it's a good idea to stay nearby the night before.

Plan to arrive 15 minutes early to use the restrooms, as there are none at the glacier. The guide will be across from the restrooms in the bus parking lot. Because this is a private excursion, you won't need to wait for others and will enjoy an excellent service level from your guide.

The journey starts with a 4x4 ride to the glacier, which will take about 30 minutes. Enjoy the scenic and bumpy trip through an ancient glacier plain, an exciting start to the day. Your guide will share fascinating insights into the area's history as you marvel at the landscapes around you.

At the glacier parking lot, your guide will give you all the necessary gear for the excursion. The equipment includes crampons, an ice axe, a harness, and a helmet with a headlamp. You can also rent hiking boots if needed. 

Next is a 30-minute hike to the glacier's edge on flat, rocky terrain. The guide will walk at your pace for an enjoyable journey.

You'll put your crampons on at the glacier's edge and step onto the icy expanse of Breidamerkurjokull glacier. Experience the unique sensation of hiking on the ice as your guide leads you to the moulin (a deep glacial hole), where the zip line awaits. Along the way, admire the otherworldly landscape as you anticipate the thrills ahead.

Soon, you'll fly across the glacier over a moulin, taking in awe-inspiring views of the ice below. This tour includes 20 photos per person, so your guide will capture the moment and photograph you during this unforgettable activity. You'll get two rides on the glacier zip line, taking away memories to last a lifetime.

Next up is an ice-climbing adventure. Your guide will show you climbing techniques and how to use the equipment before you scale the glacier wall for an adrenaline-pumping experience.

After an incredible combination of hiking, zip-lining, and ice climbing, the tour finishes with the hike back to the glacier parking lot and a 4x4 drive back to the Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon car park.
