Itinerary

Glacier Lagoon and Beyond: An Unforgettable Journey

The Glacier lagoon, Jökulsárlón, and its surrounding glacial wonderland is truly one of a kind and certainly not to be missed. The Glacier Lagoon is a stunning force of nature which is fed with icebergs from one of the offspring of the largest ice caps in Iceland, Vatnajökull. Part of the scenery is the black basalt iceberg decorated Diamond beach. As the ice breaks away from the melting glacier, it drifts through the lagoon and towards the ocean, creating a very unique landscape that is constantly moving and shifting. We will also make time during the drive to visit well selected places on the south coast including the stunning Fjallsárlón Glacier Lagoon, the hidden gem Stjórnarfoss waterfall, the mysterious Seljalandsfoss waterfall that you can walk behind, and the charming Vík village with its black sand beach and majestic Reynisdrangar seastacks.

Being located in the south east some 380 km from the capital, The Glacier Lagoon tour is our longest day tour (14 hrs) but most certainly worth the drive.
