Southwestern Iceland's Thingvellir National Park is renowned for its distinctive geological features and historical significance. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the protected natural space features the famed Silfra Fissure (where the tectonic plate of Eurasia and North America meet), the dramatic Rift Valley, pristine lakes, and the Langjökull Glacier. As Iceland's second-largest glacier, it covers an impressive distance of 953 square kilometres (368 square miles). Get away from the bustling capital city and join this memorable guided Langjökull Glacier ice cave tour in Thingvellir National Park from Reykjavík!

The adventure begins at one of the listed meeting points in Reykjavík (please see 'special terms' and specify when booking), where you and your group will be greeted by an experienced guide and driver. After boarding the comfortable vehicle, you'll be provided with a safety and itinerary briefing and depart on the 2-hour scenic transfer to the first stop of the excursion, the Hraunfossar Waterfalls. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the magnificent panoramas of Iceland along the way with complimentary WiFi as an added bonus.

Upon arrival, you'll be awe-struck by the Hraunfossar Waterfalls, a stupendous series of cascading waterfalls that emerge from beneath ancient volcanic formations. Don't forget your camera! In addition, the guide will share fascinating insights into this natural treasure. Back onboard the vehicle, the Langjökull Glacier ice cave tour in Thingvellir National Park from Reykjavík heads to Húsafell, which is located approximately 30 minutes from the Langjökull Glacier's edge. There, you'll stop for a well-deserved lunch break (please bring your own lunch, not included in the ticket price).

Refreshed and re-energized, you'll board the modified glacier vehicle and depart on the ride to the Langjökull Glacier, taking in the breathtaking landscapes along the way. Arriving at the glacier, you'll receive another safety and itinerary briefing before entering into a subterranean world, marked by varying colours of blue ice and snow, a truly extraordinary experience! Traversing deeper into the Langjökull Glacier and its labyrinth of human-made tunnels on a 1-hour guided visit, your guide will explain how this ice cap glacier was formed and how it changes yearly.
