Footnote: 🌧️ Rain or Shine – the Adventure Goes On
Even when it rains, the glacier and Highlands take on a dramatic beauty that’s well worth the journey. You’ll stay warm and dry inside our comfortable Sleipnir Truck — but you're free to step outside and explore for as long as you like! We serve the hot cocoa then inside! Having said that, in early autumn (Sep & Oct) the weather might be more challenging, and there are days we need to consider to cancel the tour due to weather.
🧥 Pro Tip: We recommend bringing rainproof gear and waterproof boots or shoes — not just for our tour, but for any adventure during your Icelandic holiday. Embrace the elements like a local!
Location: Make your way to Road 35 and find the upper parking area of Gullfoss Waterfall. Right there, you'll spot the 'Gullfoss – Panorama Restaurant – Cafe – Shop'. If you happen to park in the lower area, no worries! Just head back to the main road and take a right turn uphill. Here’s a map to help you: Google Maps Link

Vehicles to Look for: Our transfer bus is located close to the Sleipnir meeting point sign at the parking lot close to the road of Gullfoss Cafe.

Stories Along the Way: From start to finish, our guides, reservoirs of glacier knowledge and folklore, will keep you entertained. Their tales are as captivating as the scenery outside.
Traveling to the Glacier: We’ll travel along the highland road to Langjökull, the ‘Long Glacier’. Every turn reveals a new, beautiful sight. This location was challenging to reach in the past, but with our Monster Glacier Truck, we can get there safely.

Refresh & Refuel: After some exploring, there will be time for a little break. You will have a chance to taste the purest water straight from the glacier and enjoy drinks like hot cocoa and tea. At our glacier cafeteria, you’ll also have a chance to savor Jökla cream liqueur and sample Kleina, a traditional Icelandic pastry.
