Glacier Hike + Blue Ice Experience Small Group Tour

This tour will give you more than the regular ice cave experience. We will take you to less crowded locations on the glacier where you will get more time to enjoy the nature without the crowd. You will get the opportunity of a life time to enjoy one of the world’s greatest wilderness, Iceland’s largest glacier. You are driven in a specially modified Super Jeep onto the glacier, where you get to explore the glacier environment, enjoy a view out of this world, go in between the glacier and experience the glacier’s beauty from the inside! Blue Ice Experience is truly unique. The tour will take 4 to 6 hours depending on the weather and ice condition on the day to travel. An experienced local guide leads the way and shares a wealth of fascinating information about glaciers, icefields and their impact on our environment during our journey, making sure everyone enjoys themselves to the fullest. Our guides provide you with safety equipment (helmet and crampons) and the fun begins!  We also offer the option for guidance in Chinese (based on availability). Disclaimer: Please note that the images provided are for reference only. As the ice cave is a natural phenomenon, its appearance changes constantly throughout the season. Therefore, the actual ice cave this year may differ from the images shown. Sometimes, the colour of the cave might be darker due to lack of sunlight or there might be small flood in the cave due to rain, these are natural occurance and cannot be basis of refund dispute.
