Ultimate Glacier Adventure
Iceberg Boat Tour, Glacier Hike & 4X4 Transfer
Tour description
ICEBERG BOAT TOUR
Your multi-adventure includes a boat ride on Fjallsarlon glacier lagoon, navigated skillfully by an experienced guide through icebergs of various shapes and sizes. Take in the view of Fjallsjökull, and Vatnajökull, Europe’s largest Glacier and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Each iceberg creates a natural show along the way, moving gracefully before your eyes.
GLACIER HIKE
The second part of this unique experience is the scenic glacier hike on Fjallsjokull glacier, a place we have secluded access to. This means you’ll have a quiet and personal time on the glacier (60-90 minutes) led by our expert guides. You’ll get to see the untouched beauty of the glacier, make unforgettable memories, and explore what the glacier has to offer on the day. The walk to and from the glacier takes about 45 minutes each way offering magnificent views along the way.
4X4 TRANSFER
Before the glacier hike you will board a 4X4 for a 10-15 minute transfer to the starting point of the hike, and again after the hike for a return drive to basecamp.
EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE
A big advantage is that our tours start at Fjallsarlon basecamp, featuring our exclusive facilities and amenities such as free parking, restrooms, and a restaurant. This ensures a seamless and enjoyable day for you, eliminating the necessity to hurry or travel long distances between activities. Afterwards you can unwind, have a meal or coffee at Frost restaurant, and reflect on the day you’ve had.
