GOLDEN CIRCLE & GLACIER ICE CAVE
The ultimate snowmobile and glacier ice cave adventure - Sight you will never forget
Golden Circle & Glacier Ice Cave
The ultimate snowmobile and Glacier Ice cave adventure.
Iceland is known for its big glaciers, high waterfalls and erupting geyser, on this tour you will witness it all in one day.
Your day starts early in Reykjavik, where you board our comfortable bus and set off to see the top attractions in Iceland. The tour is led by a personal host and detailed audio guide in ten languages, making sure your experience is informative and fun at the same time.
Your first stop will be a Þingvellir national park where the oldest parliament in the world was founded and the tectonic plates are pulling apart every day.
From Þingvellir you will drive through lush lava fields and farmlands until the earth starts to tremble and steam rises from the ground at Geysir geothermal area. You will have around one hour to take in the beautiful scenery at Geysir and witness Strokkur erupting a few times before you continue to Gullfoss Waterfall. Gullfoss waterfall is the queen of Icelandic waterfalls, where the water rushes down a narrow canyon with indescribable force, painting the air with a glittering mist.
You complete your day with a super truck ride up to Langjökull glacier, the second largest glacier in Europe. Once you have reached the glacier’s edge you will gear up and rush off for an unforgettable snowmobile ride on top of the glacier, stopping at and visiting a man-made ice cave. The crystal-like glacier ice underneath thick layers of snow is a sight you will never forget.
After walking under the glacier you will ride your snowmobile back to the warm glacier hut to be taken back to Gullfoss waterfall, where you board the bus again for a comfortable ride back to Reykjavik after a day of amazing adventures.
