Private 2-Day Glacier Lagoon, Ice Cave and Northern Lights
Tour Overview
Travel the entire south coast of Iceland with Hidden Iceland over two adventure filled days! Take in the impressive Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls, as well as the Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach. Walk along the ridges of Fjaðrárgljúfur canyon before coming to our accommodation for the night. There’s a chance you’ll see the Northern Lights dancing across the sky. We start the next day at Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon where the giant icebergs float around and wash up on Diamond Beach. From here we drive to meet up with our local ice cave experts from Local Guide to embark on our Ice Cave adventure. We travel in their specialised Super Jeeps to get closer to the glacier. You'll get up close and personal to the astonishingly beautiful ice formations of an outlet glacier of the enormous Vatnajökull icecap, with an ice cave & glacier hike tour. The textures, light and colours will leave you in awe!

Pickup
WHAT TO BRING • Waterproof jacket and pants because even on warm days, it’s best to stay dry at all times. It can rain, even in winter. Denim jeans or cotton are NOT suitable to wear on the glacier. Denim gets wet and then cold very quickly. • You MUST have sturdy waterproof hiking boots for the glacier hike. No sneakers. If you do not have boots then you can hire from us but please get in contact to do so. • Layers of clothing, we often get all 4 seasons in one day. • We do make stops to allow you to stock up on some snacks and drinks along the way if you do not have any. Lunch is not included but we do stop at the Black Sand Beach Restaurant, so plenty of time to buy something to eat. • Please minimise luggage you bring on this two day tour. PICKUP & DROP-OFF • Please inform us of where you are staying in Reykjavik. New restrictions within Reykjavik means buses have to pick up from designated points. We cannot pickup from AirBnB addresses. We will inform you of the nearest pick up point if you tell us where you are staying. • Pick up time for the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon 2 Day tour is at 8:30 am from your chosen location. There may be other people being picked up from different locations in Reykjavik though, so if we are a little past 8:30 am then don’t worry, we’re on our way. • Drop off time: It’s a long two days and for good reason, we squeeze in a lot. We aim to be back at your drop off point before 08:30pm on Day 2, but many things can affect that time so please don’t worry if we are a little late returning. It’s either for safety reasons or to give you the best experience. We will stop for dinner on the way back to Reykjavik. Again, If there is anything not covered here or in our FAQ’s online then get in contact with us. We love hearing from you before your trip. We look forward to meeting you and showing you around this amazing country. Let the excitement build as this is going to be an amazing two days that you will not forget!
