Join this tour and be among the many who experience this special natural event in Iceland in a truly one-of-a-kind setting. This midnight sun tour also makes a great addition to a day spent exploring the Golden Circle or self-driving through some of Iceland’s most iconic sights.
Your adventure begins on June 21 at 19:30 from Gullfoss Waterfall on the Golden Circle. From there, you’ll head up to Langjokull, Europe’s second-largest glacier, where daylight stretches late into the night.
During this time, Iceland experiences over 21 hours of daylight, with the remaining hours bathed in soft twilight. This beautiful natural phenomenon, known as the midnight sun, creates the perfect setting to explore Langjokull in a unique evening adventure.
Ride in comfort and style in a monster truck, a specially designed glacier vehicle equipped to handle the icy terrain while offering a smooth, elevated view of the landscape. Its large tires and advanced suspension make the journey both safe and surprisingly gentle, even across rugged glacier surfaces.
As you ascend to the top of the glacier, your expert local guide will share fascinating stories about the Icelandic Highlands, insights into glacial science, and captivating tales from Nordic mythology that bring this remote world to life. These stories add depth to the journey, connecting you with the land, its history, legends, and the powerful forces that shaped it.
Stretching over 347 square miles (900 square kilometers), Langjokull is known for its vast ice fields, deep crevasses, and sweeping views. From the top, you can see endless stretches of shimmering white snow and distant mountain peaks. The crisp, cold air and quiet surroundings make the area feel calm and very different from everyday places.
During the tour, you’ll stop at a scenic viewpoint, where you can relax and take in the breathtaking views and surreal atmosphere under the warm golden hues of the midnight sun.
Here, we invite you to enjoy a warm drink and a traditional Icelandic treat at our exclusive Glacier Pop-up Café. Sip on Jokla—an Icelandic cream liqueur—hot cocoa, tea, or coffee, and enjoy kleinur. This delicious local pastry pairs perfectly with the cool mountain air and quiet majesty of the glacier.
For the adventurous, and if the weather allows, there may even be a chance to sled down a glacier slope or try your hand at glacier golf by swinging a club across the icy surface. It’s a fun way to add a bit of playful energy to your visit, and a great photo opportunity to share with friends.
After your glacial adventure on Langjokull, you’ll ride the transfer bus back to Gullfoss Waterfall, wrapping up the journey where it began. The stunning Golden Circle landscape offers the perfect setting to reflect on and carry the experience with you long after your visit.
