About this tour
Of all glacier trips Iceland offers, Breiðamerkurjökull has the best-known neighbour: this outlet glacier flows down from Vatnajökull — the biggest glacier in Iceland, the largest in Europe — and calves the icebergs that fill Jökulsárlón lagoon.
The three guided hours put you on that ice with crampons and helmet provided. Glacier excursions here change with the ice itself; the route is chosen fresh each day.
