Our first stop of the day is Seljalandsfoss Waterfall, one of Iceland's most iconic waterfalls.

Day 2: The Realm of the Glacier

Today, prepare for a day full of adventure as we explore the realm of the great Vatnajökull Glacier, Europe's largest glacier. The crystal blue ice cave is a remarkable phenomenon. Each winter, new caves are formed by the glacier's constant melting and freezing. The journey into an ice cave offers an exceptional chance to capture the blue light that passes through the glacial ice. You'll be enveloped by remarkably deep shades of blue, caused by the compression of the ice. Travel from our hotel to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon. From there, we'll drive off-road to the Vatnajökull glacier in a modified super jeep. During this scenic drive, you will witness the best of the amazing glacial terrain. Upon arrival at the ice cave, we will provide you with the necessary glacier and safety equipment, and our experienced guides will lead you into this magical blue world. Our local guides are highly professional and knowledgeable about ice caves, ensuring you are in good and knowledgeable hands.
