This tour begins when you meet your guides and group at the carpark of the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon. You will want to arrive here a few hours earlier, or set aside a few hours after, as this is truly one of Iceland’s most beautiful gems.  Here, you can watch icebergs break from a glacier tongue and cruise across the country’s deepest lake, the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon, and admire them where they wash up on the shore at the adjacent Diamond Beach. Once your group is gathered, you will board a Super Jeep capable of easily reaching the glacier cave, and drive across the beautiful landscape of Vatnajökull National Park. Vatnajökull is Europe’s largest glacier, and the opportunity to travel underneath it is only possible for a few months in midwinter.

It seems impossible that nature could create blues so intense, textures so smooth, and ice formations so unusual. You will have up to an hour to wander around the halls and chambers, taking photographs and marvelling at such a wonderful, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Your guide will tell you all about how the caves form, the history and the future of the glaciers, and answer any questions you might have.

Witness the magical world inside of a glacier on this once-in-a-lifetime journey. Recently opened tunnels, carved into the most stable part of Europe’s second largest glacier, Langjökull, make this unbelievable opportunity possible. You will meet your group and guide at Húsafell, or a point closer to the glacier if you have a four-wheel-drive vehicle and are visiting in summer.

Iceland is the only place in the world where such impressive passages into the ice have been built for the purpose of welcoming visitors. While natural ice caves do form on the lower parts of other glaciers during winter, they are notoriously unreliable due to flooding, and often too unstable to enter. Conversely, the ice tunnel in Langjökull is open year-round, and accessible in all but the most tumultuous of weather conditions.  The tunnel is well lit throughout, and the ground is relatively even, so this tour is more than doable for anyone comfortable on their feet for an hour or so. Whether young or old, fit or unfit, the Langjökull ice tunnel is sure to blow you away. Once you have enjoyed the incredible beauty here, you will jump back in your vehicle for a return journey to Húsafell center. Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

You need a valid driver’s license to operate one yourself but can ride as a passenger if you lack one. After a quick safety briefing, you will start your adventure. Flying across the ice-cap of Langjökull is indescribable. The thrill of the rush, the gleaming beauty of the snow, and the views of the Highlands unfolding beneath you all make for an experience that you will never forget. You will explore the surface of the glacier before being escorted to the mouth of the ice tunnels. Unlike ice-caves, which only open at the base of glaciers during the coldest months and rely on favourable weather to be safe to enter, the ice tunnels were carved into the sturdiest part of the glacier by hand. This means they are open throughout the year, completely safe, and unlike anything else in the world. The experience of walking into a glacier in this fashion is something usually reserved only for scientific experts. You will be guided down Langjökull’s channels, marvelling over the blue ice that surrounds you. Because of the way the tunnels were carved, the ground is flat and traversing it is easy. Your guide will talk to you all about the formation of, the science behind, and the threats to the ice-caps as you walk. Once this tour inside the tunnel  is complete, you will drive back to the base-camp on your snowmobile.

Viðgelmir, formed in an eruption in the 10th Century, is the largest of its kind in Iceland, at 1600 metres long, and (at its most open) over 15 metres high and 16 metres wide. You will be provided with a helmet and light before entering the lava-tube. Because it is so open, Viðgelmir is easier to traverse than other lava caves (although you can still expect uneven ground beneath your feet). Your guide will take you through at a comfortable pace, telling you about the cave’s formation and fascinating history; they will also draw your attention to the cave’s most amazing features, such as its vivid colouration, its stalactites and its stalagmites. After a thorough exploration, you will get back on the bus and be whisked to Reykjavík for an evening return. Immerse yourself in the hidden worlds of Iceland’s glaciers and lava caves.

Join us for an amazing SuperTruck and Ice Cave tour in one of the most beautiful areas of Iceland. We start the tour from Vík. Meeting point is in the parking lot behind the Icewear store that is next to the gas station on route 1. There you will find big black SuperTruck and our local guide waiting for you. From the village, we drive a few km on the main road to the east until we reach our off-road track up to Mt. Hafursey and Kötlujökull glacier. Kötlujökull glacier is a glacier tongue coming out from our fourth largest glacier in Iceland, the Mýrdalsjökull glacier. On our way up to the ice cap we drive through a fantastic landscape.   Many filmmakers have used the surrounding area as a backdrop for their filming. High profile projects, such as Darren Aronofsky's 'Noah', the 'Transformers' series, HBO's 'Game Of Thrones' series and parts of the Star Wars franchise were all filmed there. When we reach up to the glacier, we park our SuperTruck and walk the last few meters to the ice wall to enter the Ice Cave.  We spend around 45 min - 1 hour exploring the area before we start heading back to Vík. On this tour, you will not only get to see this unique landscape we drive through and the glacier and Ice Cave. You will also get better knowledge about glaciers and volcanoes, and the geology of the long overdue volcano Katla, who sleeps under the 750 meters thick ice of the ice cap.  Katla usually erupts every 40 - 80 years, last time in October 1918. We will also go through the history of the area and its inhabitants, of their victories and hardships, and life affected by the powerful nature that surrounds them. Don't let the opportunity to explore the great glaciers pass you by!

The exhibits at the lava centre take you through the eruptions, earthquakes and geothermal power that have shaped Iceland over millions of years. You will then travel to the magnificent Skógafoss waterfall. This giant natural wonder cascades 60 metres onto almost flat ground, creating a huge mist. On some days this jewel of the south has been known to produce a double rainbow. You will then arrive in the quaint seaside town of Vík where you will have free time to eat and check out the natural black sand beach. Next, the real adventure begins. You will hop aboard a super jeep for an exciting ride through the incredible landscape of southern Iceland towards the glacier area. You will then be given a safety briefing and fitted with equipment including; a helmet, headlamp and crampons. Then you will take a short hike across the glacier to the ice cave. Ice caves form naturally throughout the regular melt and freeze cycles of glaciers. Because of the way they are formed, no two ice caves are ever the same. Ice caves are as unique as fingerprints and the imagery inside one is something you will never forget. The walls of an ice cave can be painted in blues, whites, greys and ashy blacks. The world inside an ice cave can resemble a crystal palace. You will have plenty of time to explore this other-worldly wonder.  You will then head back to Vík where you will have more time to explore this charming town. If you haven’t already taken a stroll to the black sand beach, this is the perfect chance to do so.

Here the boundaries between the gigantic tectonic plates of America and Eurasia are the most obvious. The national park is also known for its importance in the history of Iceland. At Þingvellir, the oldest parliament in the world was founded. Your guide will walk you through the rift valley, in the footsteps of the Vikings and tell you all the details of this world heritage site. From Þingvellir, the tour continues to the one and only Geysir geothermal area. Today, Strokkur erupts every 5-10 minutes, sending hot water skywards. Seeing this magnificent geyser erupting is for many the highlight of their visit to Iceland. At the geothermal area, you will also see the many different colours of landscape found in high heat areas around Iceland.   At Geysir geothermal area you will have time to grab lunch before your journey continues to one of Iceland's fantastic waterfalls, Gullfoss.

This tour is perfect for those seeking to see the sights and experience the thrilling adventure of snowmobiling to an ice cave. Check availability by choosing a date.

Discover Iceland in both comfort and style with this private, luxury tour of West Iceland. Step inside ice cave tunnels in Iceland's second-largest glacier Langjökull, before visiting some of the Borgarfjörður region's most spectacular waterfalls. Those wanting a unique holiday in Iceland should book this VIP sightseeing experience now. Your day's adventure will begin with a pickup from your accommodation in Reykjavík city by a Mercedes Benz V-class luxury minivan. From there, you'll be whisked north-west along Road 1 on your way to the first destination, Langjökull, the second-largest glacier in Iceland.  Until now, what lies under the surface of the Langjökull glacier has been unknown to the public. But in 2010, a couple of Icelanders had a vision; to take people, not just around and on top of the glacier, but also inside glacier ice cap so they could see the blue ice which rests deep inside the glacier. Working to make this possible were engineers, geophysicists, and a presidential candidate. They made it possible to shape the biggest man-made ice cave tunnels, and the first one accessible to the public. You'll follow your guide through these intricate tunnels, witnessing first-hand the ever-changing environment of glaciers. You'll see countless rooms and halls built inside the glacier, including the 'chapel', where both weddings and concerts have been held. On the way to the glacier, we will make a stop at Hraunfossar waterfalls. This cascade is an exceptionally beautiful and unusual natural pearl. The waterfall looks like it magically appears from within the lava, but it actually is a spring that surges through the ground and runs down into the Hvítá river. The waterfall streams out of Hallmundarhraun which is an ancient lava field created in an eruption from a volcano lying under Langjökull glacier. There is a hiking trail that leads from Hraunfossar to another nearby natural pearl, Barnafoss waterfall. This cascade is vastly different from Hraunfossar as it rushes violently through a dramatic canyon. On the way back we will stop at Krauma and Deildatunguhver, Europe’s most powerful hot spring. The hot spring temperature is 100°C (212°F). Kraum is a natural geothermal bath, spa, and restaurant that specializes in Icelandic cuisine from the freshest local farm-produced ingredients.
