This is currently the best easy-access blue ice experience in Vatnajökull National Park: incredible views & photo opportunities without a difficult hike.
The tour begins at Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, where massive icebergs drift toward the Atlantic Ocean. Climb aboard a Super Jeep for an off‑road adventure to the edge of Vatnajökull. We drive for about 30 minutes to reach the glacier. Once we leave the main road, the ride gets bumpy and offers amazing views of the landscape.
When we arrive, we give you all the gear you need: a helmet, headlamp, and crampons for your boots. It is typically a 15-20 minute walk on the glacier to reach the ice canyons & hidden caves. This walk is easy for most people, and no prior experience is required. Depending on the light and the weather, you will see colours ranging from bright blue to pure white, depending on the light, snowfall, and what nature has created this season.

Cần Quan Tâm
Glacier Lagoon
Your adventure begins at the famous Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, where icebergs drift out to sea. Take time to enjoy the view or visit nearby Diamond Beach before departure. The meeting point is on the east side of the main Jökulsárlón parking lot, where you’ll see Super Jeeps and tour vans. Look for the Arctic Adventures sign - your guide will meet you there and lead you to the Super Jeep (marked either Glacier Mice or Arctic Adventures). Tours leave promptly, so please arrive at least 15 minutes early. Jökulsárlón is a busy area with several parking lots on both sides of the road; allow extra time to park and walk to the meeting point. There are no washrooms at the ice cave, so please use the facilities at Jökulsárlón before we depart.
Vatnajokull Glacier
From the lagoon, climb aboard our specially modified Super Jeep for a scenic ~30 minute drive towards an outlet of Vatnajökull, Europe’s largest glacier. Once we leave the main road, the track becomes off-road and bumpy, adding to the sense of adventure while offering beautiful views of mountains and the surrounding winter landscape. This tour takes you beyond the regular roads, right to the edge of the glacier where the ice cave awaits. Your highly skilled driver-guide will expertly navigate the track so you can buckle up and enjoy the adventure! After the Super Jeep ride, you will be fitted with a helmet and crampons, hear a safety briefing, then be ready to explore.

Incredible blue ice caves

5.00Incredible experience walking on a glacier and experiencing an ice cave! It was busy - several groups all arrive at similar times, so there is a bit of waiting around, but it does allow you to take loads of photos! David was our guide and he was incredibly informative, and tried to find unique things to show us when waiting for other people to get through. It took around 3.5 hours in total. The ice caves were unlike anything we'd ever seen. Our experience was that it wasn't quite long tunnels of ice, but lots of little crevaces and holes to explore. The ice really is as blue as the photos in some places!
Best experience ever!

Don’t do this ice cave tour

1.00Hi all. Would highly discourage anyone considering the Crystal ice cave tour out of Jokulsarlon right now. There basically isn’t a cave. It was unfortunate how small the current “cave” is. If I hadn’t of been told it was a cave, I never would have called it that. It’s like a very small tunnel that’s open to the air at much of its very short length. This past summer, the really nice ground based ice cave system was destroyed and now guides have been struggling to get a nice cave again for tour groups to visit. Arctic adventures had a great guide for us, but really should have canceled the tour. The advertisement with the nice photos and descriptions from previous years is really misleading.
Its was OK.

3.00The cave was spectacular but the guide was strange, undervalued and not particularly gladly helpful and did not provide context or additional information on the site or ice etc. There were a lot of people in the cave at the same time and often resulted in having to move aside so others could pass diminishing the experience. The other detriment was the cost. It was very expensive considering we spent les than 45 mon in the cave itself and start to finish took less than 2 hours. It was OK but I had higher expectations for the price we paid.
Short notice cancellation, refund will take...

2.00Trip was cancelled by the organizer due to weather conditions a few hours before. It was not possible to communicate with the organizer via TripAdvisor about an alternative. Repayment process already takes several days and a solution is not yet in sight.
Fun activity with a beautiful scenary!

5.00Overall the tour was incredible. The guide was knowledgeable and had a great attitude! The only note is that the 20 minutes drive to the cave was in a van that was packed with little room to move.
It was pretty windy...

4.00It was pretty windy walking to the Ice cave. It was regret that the main cave was closed for safety reason. Fortunately some of the areas are pretty good too.
A scam on the traveler's trust

1.00The worst of my life! Not only is it not what is offered advertised with the photos of the tour, but the response to the claim is null and void. Once in the truck, the guide says that we will not see the ice caves as advertised but that instead “we will see others”. To which I ask if they are like this, like the pictures and he replies that “if I don’t want to continue, come down and ask for my money back to the office” (which doesn’t exist there) We continue to be very upset about the deal. Once there on the glacier, he asked what that is and answered “ICE”. Really? I'm asking you about the place, do you think I'm dumb or do you kid me? It was all dreadful, caves that you can forget for a huge sum of money. I wrote emails to cancel today's because I ended up sick in yesterday's and nobody took care of it. It was a scam! What the guide said above the truck should have been BEFORE warning the customer but no, they do it when nothing can be done anymore NEVER AGAIN’ hire others
