This is a tour for those who wish to enjoy outdoor activities in the fresh mountain air and experience the unspoiled natural beauty of Iceland at its best. Breiðamerkurjökull is a part of Vatnajökull, the largest glacier in Europe, and glacier hiking is the perfect way to get to know this magnificent natural phenomenon while at the same time enjoying the surrounding and majestic mountain views. We meet at Jökulsárlón and embark on a 30-minute jeep ride to where we start our walk, at which point all passengers receive necessary safety equipment and instructions from the guide, essential for glacier walks. During the tour, passengers will acquire knowledge about the glacier and view some unique ice sculpture and crevasse formations. Conditions for photography are exceptional in this unique landscape, and, again, there will be very few people around.

With an Intrepid tour that did the Glacier walk this afternoon with guide Michael. We were all knocked out by the landscape & the experience overall. Going down into the ice cave was a unique experience. Michael the guide was a true professional & he enhanced the experience for us. It’s a must do. A once in a lifetime experience.

We enjoyed the hike. Our group were 8 people and there was another family of 4, so we were a small group of 12 total. It is not too long to walk because some time is spent in the vehicle to get close to the glacier. We walked on the glacier and were pleased to find an ice cave which we explored. It was beautiful! Michael did a good job explaining and answering our questions, and gave us tips on how to get good pictures in the cave.

Stunning scenery and fabulous experience. The tour takes your some calories, takes your some time, and takes you to somewhere you have never imagined on the earth.
The ice is so natural and non-changeable.
The ice is so crystal clear. You feel you can see through it, actually you cannot see through its thickness, accumulated and compressed by snow and snow, years and years.
The ice and volcanic ashes are piled up layer by layer. Welcome to this world of ice and fire.
Freezing cold.
Full of physical challenges.
But NEVER forgetable.
Thank you, Pavel, our tour guide.

It was more fun than I expected! We met the guide and were driven about 40 min out to the glacier. It was in September so the ice was black and white. The guide said it’s more blue in the winter. Everything needed to do the walk was provided upon arrival.
Several notable spots were shown along with a walk through a small ice cave. The highlight of the tour was being able to drink fresh glacier water!
It’s a worthwhile experience while the glaciers are still there. It was interesting to learn about the glacier and how it has changed over the years. We definitely could not have made it out there ourselves.

Very cool experience but was a lot more physical than we thought it was going to be, definitely not just a walk, more like a glacier hike! Our guide was great and our group was small (only 6) so we got more personal time than larger groups would have had. I would recommend wearing some extra thick socks or something, because both me and my partner got terrible blisters on our heels afterwards. Hiking uphill in those crampons are no joke!

Per tour operator, Our trip was canceled. We were notified 2 days before the event and not able to reserve another excursion. Very disappointing.

Check glacier walking off my bucket list. What a fun and memorable experience. Was solo traveling and took a walk with Blue Iceland. Felt supremely safe in the hands of Michael who took the time to chat interesting facts and provided good humor into the conversation. Took care to ensure the group was together and provided clear instructions. Sorry Michael, you left before I could tip you, but if you see this, just know you were appreciated. 5 stars!
