What we will see

What we will do

We leave Reykjavík behind us and venture on a thrilling sightseeing tour headed north along an itinerary leading from the spectacular ragged coast inland, where the landscape gets even rougher.
Our first stop is the Deildartunguhver thermal springs, which let out incredible steam clouds: part of the water is used for district heating through pipes that are over 60 km long. It is the largest hot water spring in Europe.
We then reach the Langjökull glacier, the second largest icecap in Iceland whose white rugged outline stands out against the lava stone background.
An expert driver takes us on an unforgettable journey through snow and ice: nothing else surrounds us except blue skies.
After this thrilling glacier excursion, we enjoy a packed lunch in the comfort of a mountain lodge.
On our way back, we stop to admire the surreal and picturesque setting of the Hraunfoss and Barnafoss waterfalls, the ideal place to take impressive photographs.

What you need to know

The time spent on the glacier will depend on weather conditions and level of the snow.
