About the Activity

What to Expect

Get ready for a one-of-a-kind Icelandic adventure on our glacier tour on Langjokull Glacier with northern lights from Reykjavik! Embark on an unforgettable journey that combines two extraordinary adventures in a single day. Begin your day with a convenient pick-up from your preferred location in Reykjavik, heading straight to Langjökull, Iceland’s second-largest glacier. Here, you will step inside the mesmerizing ice tunnels for an exclusive, once-in-a-lifetime experience surrounded by the dazzling blue ice. The glacier, spanning 953 square kilometers, features the world’s largest human-made ice tunnel. This remarkable structure allows you to explore the glacier's interior and admire the breathtaking formations.

After this glacier experience, we will return to Reykjavik where you can enjoy some free time to explore the city before the second tour.

As the sun sets, a comfortable minibus will whisk you away to the tranquil outskirts of the city, far from the urban glow. Under the starry sky, our guide will share fascinating insights about the Northern Lights while you marvel at their ethereal dance across the sky. This is a perfect opportunity to witness the natural wonder's beauty as they paint the sky with vibrant hues.
