This tour combines two amazing winter highlights in Iceland: a glacier walk and a search for the amazing aurora borealis. On the drive towards Mýrdalsjökull, Iceland's fourth largest glacier, we pass two impressive waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss, and of course the world famous volcano, Eyjafjallajökull. On Sólheimajökull, a safe and easy glacier walk on crampons will take you up on to the ice field where you will discover the different ice features, water cauldrons, crevasses and waterways. After the glacier we head to a local farm for a delicious traditional Icelandic meat dinner. As we head back to Reykjavík, we will drive into the night looking out for those magical northern lights.

 

Note: Boots can be rented, lunch can be bought on the way, and we lend rain coats to those who need (upon request).

 

*Please note that the northern lights are a natural phenomenon and sightings cannot be guaranteed.
