The age limit to able to join a boat tour is 6 years.
We recommend booking tours in advance especially during high season June, July and August. We are however likely to be able to fit you in on one of our tours if you show up and decide you want to join our adventure.
We recommend that you bring a hat and gloves on our tours. In Iceland, the weather can quite unpredictable so dress accordingly. We also recommend that you bring your camera for those priceless photo opportunities!
Scenes from Game of Thrones were filmed at Fjallsarlon Glacier Lagoon, so Jon Snow and his fellows from the Wall have been at the lagoon in the past…. Unfortunately, Jon Snow will not be on-site during your visit 😉
Highly recommend this tour because of small size and ability to get up close and personal to the glacier area near the lagoon. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the lagoon and the science around the glacier. Very personalized and much less crowded than the Jokulsarlon lagoon where there were hundreds of people. One of the highlights of our trip. Must do activity!

Great “hidden” gem. We visited both Jokusarlon and Fjallsarlon and liked both. However Fjallsarlon is our prefered cause there were less people and the zodiac tour took us really close to the impressive glacier. The crew at the information center is friendly and really flexible (we arrived quite late but they still managed to put us on a tour). Definitely recommend it.

We decided while researching our trip that we would avoid the heavily trafficked Jokulsarlon boat rides and chose Fjallsarlon instead. Glad we did. The guides fitted us out with floater jackets and life vests. Very professional crew and they took good care of our personal safety. I would not hesitate to recommend this as a good value for your Kroner. We had a fabulous time.
