Our signature Ice Cave Tour! A 2-3 hour tour that allows you to experience the stunning blue caves of Vatnajökull, the biggest glacier in Europe. On this tour we venture to one of the more accessible ice caves for an encounter with ancient blue ice.

The conditions of the ice caves are constantly changing. During the warmer summer months the ice caves are being formed by melted glacier water. In autumn each year we start looking for ice caves and find the most beautiful and safest caves to explore with you.

This Season’s Unique Experience

Perfect for most fitness levels and short winter days, with stunning photo opportunities around every corner!
