Highlighted reviews from other travelers
The glacier lagoon was wonderful and we enjoyed dinner and a beach walk at Vik. The scenery on this trip was well worth the long day.
Job well done by Gunnar B. Gunnar exceeded guest’s expectation by delivering all he can in terms of guest satisfaction. Appreciate Gunnar’s help to get on another separate tour on same day. Takk Gunnar!

Full description
Stop at Seljalandsfoss waterfall, where you can walk behind the cascades to reach the other side. Continue to the majestic Skógafoss waterfall and admire the impressive 60-meter drop. Continue to Jökulsárlón Glacial Lagoon and stroll along the shores of the lake.
Immerse yourself in the tranquility of the area as 1,000- to 1,500-year-old ice breaks away from the Vatnajökull glacier and floats silently on the water. Recognize locations from some of the many movies that have been filmed in the area, such as Batman Begins and Tomb Raider.
Stop at the spectacular Diamond Beach and admire the strand of black sand speckled with clumps of ice, giving an appearance of shimmering diamonds. In the warmer months, enjoy an added boat ride around the lagoon and witness the floating icebergs up-close.
