Discover one of Iceland’s hidden treasures on this guided boat tour on Fjallsárlón glacier lagoon. See the Vatnajökull glacier over the mountains while you sail amongst huge icebergs in the glacier lake. If you would like to experience the surreal but magnificent landscapes of Iceland, this is the perfect tour for you.
The tour begins at the base with preparing you in protective clothing. After suiting up you will be in the hands of your expert guide who will lead the way down to the glacier lagoon where you will find your boat.
This iceberg boat tour is quite a private experience since there are few people in each boat. Using a small boat gives you a chance to go close to the glacier, providing dramatic views of the icebergs and the breaking glacier tongue.
