The Grapevine's take

Into the Glacier

So you’ve been on a glacier, but have you been in one? If no, the Langjökull Ice Tunnel will give you the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to stroll around under ice. The man-made cavernous structure spiders its way through the glacier giving you unparalleled views and a general sense of ‘woah’. There’s even an ice chapel if you feel a little romantic.

About this tour

This Langjökull glacier tour is a treat for every adventure lover. We'll visit Langjökull glacier ice cave, the man-made ice cave, Iceland.

This day tour gives you the opportunity to enjoy a day full of adventures, departing from Reykjavik in our comfortable coaches. You will get the opportunity of a life time to enjoy one of the world’s greatest wilderness; Iceland’s second largest glacier – even from the inside! Never before the Langjokull glacier ice cave, has anyone been able to see the beautiful blue ice at the heart of an ice cap glacier. No doubt this will be a truly memorable day. We will also visit a local horse farm on our way to learn more about the Icelandic breeds, such a great option for an additional cultural experience.

The drive to Langjokull glacier is very scenic and on the way we make a stop by Hraunfossar waterfalls. “Hraun” in Icelandic means lava and the lava at Hraunfossar waterfalls actually came from one of Langjokul glacier’s volcanic eruptions ages ago. At Langjokull glacier’s edge, special modified glacier vehicles will take care of the ride up to the glacier and to the ice caves – and what a ride it is! On the giant glacier itself you will have time to enjoy the stunning environment and view. The walk INTO the glacier itself takes around one hour and is operated with highly experienced English-speaking guides.
