Fjords and Into the Glacier Tour One-day tour Best seller
Our partner: BusTravel Iceland
Description
Run in conjunction with some of our partner companies here in Iceland our ‘fjords and into the glacier’ tour is a great choice for people who want to really dive into the nature of Iceland.
By journeying into a series of man made tunnels inside the Langjökull glacier we are able to offer you a unique experience all throughout the year. You will be able to learn about how glaciers form, what they can teach us and what threats they face from global warming. Getting to the top of a glacier is easier said than done however and this is why we employ the use of specially modified vehicles in order to get you up from the base of the glacier in Húsafell to the peak!
When the tour of the glacial caves is over we will bring you back to the city but not before making sure to check out some of the other local nature hotspots on the way such as the Hraunfossar waterfall..
