Full description

Experience Iceland’s second-largest glacier from the inside and enjoy the rare sight of blue ice at the heart of an ice cap glacier on this half-day tour.  Catch a shuttle to the Glacier Base Camp, Klaki from Húsafell. Meet your professional guide and gear up in warm overalls if needed, before boarding a specially-modified glacier truck for the drive up to the cave entrance. Arriving at the cave entrance, head inside the glacier with your guide. The man-made Langjökull Glacier Tunnel is a wonder to behold. The ice is lit up from behind by glowing hues, allowing you to see the layers that have formed over many years. Listen as your guide walks with you through the glacier's corridors where you will have a chance to learn about geology, the history of glaciers, how they are formed, and how they move.

The ice- tunnels were impressive, with beautiful LED lamps making the ice shimmer in different shades of blue ( in a good way...if you suffer from claustropobia, it might be differently impressive, as the tunnel is a bit narrow😉). The second part of the way up to the entrance of to tunnel was amazing too, big up for our driver Magdalena! The guides also did a good job giving us g some information about glaciers in Iceland, always spiced up with some typical icelandic humour. Beside of the wow- effect of being INTO a glacier, this trip will make you really aware of the climate change!

Fantastic. Utterly brilliant. A must go to as the glacier is sadly quickly depleting. Make sure to rake waterproof clothes, especially footwear as it can be very wet inside. There are toilets in the visitor centre to use before leaving, the trip takes about an hour to get there with a stop at basic toilets at base camp, the tour is about an hour long then the hour journey back with a stop at base camp toilets if needed before going back to the visitor centre. Excellent staff and a very interesting and unusual thing to experience. The views and photos opportunities are fantastic!

This was a once in a lifetime experience that my mom and I thoroughly enjoyed. We felt safe and comfortable for the whole tour, including the epic drive up to the glacier. Our tour guide was excellent - knowledgeable and personable. Don’t come to Iceland and miss out on doing this tour going inside of a glacier- something you cannot do anywhere else in the world!
