Crystal Ice Cave Tour from Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon

3.8
(124 reviews)

3 hours (approximately)
Offered in: English

Your adventure begins at Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, where massive icebergs drift toward the Atlantic Ocean. From here, you’ll climb into a super jeep for an exciting off‑road ride to the edge of Vatnajökull, Europe’s largest glacier.

After a short walk, your guide will lead you into a naturally formed ice cave - a dazzling world of deep blue ice shaped by meltwater streams and frozen into magical formations. Equipped with a headlamp and glacier crampons, you’ll safely explore the cave, capture incredible photos, and learn how these rare formations appear and change with each winter season.

The tour lasts about 2–3 hours and ends back at Jökulsárlón Lagoon, where it began.
