It is expensive it is short but it is one of the best attractions of Iceland. With a little luck if you get to see some sun, this is an amazing experience The team is very professional. If you get with your 4x4 car you can save some money. They provide you with clothing and boots we recommend to bring... More

this was the highlight of our trip to iceland. We were picked up at the junction at 4pm. This was a specially arranged tour for our group. The weather was perfect, bright sunshine and very little wind. We took the rubber boots from them and the guide took us to the end of the glacier. The trip lasted for 2.5... More

Summer 2012: We had booked Tour 3 of Vatna with Glacier Jeeps. We'd made the booking several months ago and had been so looking forward to this.

We considered canceling the trip the day before because we were so... More

In the morning, a Gray Line bus picked us up at our hotel in Reykjavik, we were a little confused, but they just run the bus line to Skaftafell. Upon arriving 3.5 hours later, we... More

In July 2008, my family (husband and two young adult daughters) and I visited Iceland where we all agreed we had the most wonderful experiences of our years of international travel. The most memorable day was spent on the south-east coast near the Vatnajokull Glacier, the largest of northern Europe. To get there, we caught a plane from the small... More
