About this activity
Begin the tour with a welcome in the cafeteria and then taken to your vehicle in the private parking area at the Glacier Lagoon Jökulsárlón. You will be driven on road and off-road with Super Jeeps all the way to the snout/base of the glacier Breiðamerkurjökull. This is the only company that operates the tour with a driver and a guide rather than a diver/guide, so you will receive a more exclusive dedication on this tour. The Jeeps can accommodate up to 15 passengers (plus the guide and driver) so the maximum rate per groups is 1 guide to 7 passengers.

At the glacier, you will receive adequate crampons (spikes to walk on ice) and helmets for safety. Once fully equipped, you will walk about 5-10 minutes on the glacier before entering the cave. The cave is easy to access, and at this point of the tour, you can decide whether you want to be guided through or explore on your own. Do not hesitate to ask the guides to take photos for you and ask as many questions as you want. Whereas our tours are mainly operated in English, our team of experienced guides is quite international, so ask us in advance if you would like the tour in Spanish, French, or German and we will try our best to make it happen. After spending sufficient time inside the cave (approximately 40 minutes), we will drive you back safely to the Glacier Lagoon Jökulsárlón.
