About this activity

This tour will give you more than the regular ice cave experience. We will take you to less crowded locations on the glacier where you will get more time to enjoy the nature without the crowd. You will get the opportunity of a life time to enjoy one of the world’s greatest wilderness, Iceland’s largest glacier. You are driven in a specially modified Super Jeep onto the glacier, where you get to explore the glacier environment, enjoy a view out of this world, go in between the glacier and experience the glacier’s beauty from the inside! Blue Ice Experience is truly unique. The tour will take 4 to 6 hours depending on the weather and ice condition on the day to travel.

Disclaimer:

Please note that the images provided are for reference only. As the ice cave is a natural phenomenon, its appearance changes constantly throughout the season. Therefore, the actual ice cave this year may differ from the images shown.
