Top East Iceland Adventure Tours - page 2

Two glaciers in one day, and one of them is a glacier most visitors never see! While other tours stick to the standard route on Falljökull, this hike takes you across it to reach Virkisjökull (''Fortress Glacier''), a remote, secluded glacier hidden from view. You'll spend 3.5 to 4 hours on the ice, visiting a quiet glacier valley framed by towering ice formations, dramatic icefalls, and striking basalt columns, with sweeping views of Öræfajökull, Iceland's highest peak. It's the longer, wilder, more remote alternative to a standard Skaftafell glacier hike, built for travellers who want to leave the crowds behind.

The south coast of Iceland is home to many dramatic natural attractions, from waterfalls to sloping glaciers. Visit two of the region’s waterfalls on this shared tour from Reykjavik, before going a step further by walking out onto Solheimajökull Glacier. Learn the basics of ice climbing before putting your skills to the test on ice walls and getting photos along the way.

Explore Vatnajökull’s glacier world from both the air and the ground on this scenic helicopter experience from Skaftafell. Fly above dramatic outlet glaciers, cascading icefalls and rugged mountain ridges as your pilot highlights the scale and character of Europe’s largest ice cap. From the air, crevasse fields, glacier tongues and sweeping valleys reveal patterns and textures that shift with the light and seasons. A glacier-area landing offers a quiet moment on the ground, giving you time to take in the stillness, capture photos and appreciate the surrounding landscape before continuing your flight over ridgelines, peaks and black-sand plains. This experience is weather dependent, and landing locations may vary. Travelers over 120 kg may be asked to purchase an additional 50% seat for weight balance. Infants are not recommended on shared flights; please contact us for private options.
