WHICH GLACIER TOUR SHOULD I CHOOSE? We run glacier tours at two different locations:

The Skaftafell nature reserve glacier area:

4 hours & 30 minutes drive from Reykjavik, is part of the majestic Vatnajokull National park, named after the largest glacier in Europe: The Vatnajokull. Joining a glacier activity here will give you the extraordinary opportunity to hike on Falljökull (the falling glacier): a stunning outlet glacier, which expands out of the Vatnajökull ice cap. Falljökull is a giant frozen waterfall, whose dramatic landscape have been naturally carved over thousands of years: it offers unique views over the glacier falls, spectacular moulins & beautiful crevasses.

Sólheimajökull glacier:

A couple of hours away from Reykjavik, with its stunning views, crevasses, and ice walls, Sólheimajökull is one of the most hiked glaciers in Iceland; it offers terrain for every level of difficulty: beginners & professionals. Its strategic location makes it easy to take a round-trip drive from Reykjavik to this destination in the same day.
