Experience the beautiful natural attractions on this Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon Private tour On our Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon Private tour, we’ll go for a drive along the south coast of Iceland heading to Europe’s largest glacier; Vatnajökull. As we drive along Iceland’s epic South Coast, we will visit Iceland’s most beautiful natural attractions. Vatnajökull is the largest ice cap in Iceland, covering more than 8 percent of the country. In total Vatnajökull covers 8,100 km2 (3,100 sq mi) which is about the size of Delaware! On this Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon Private tour, we travel along the scenic south coast and admire views of black sand beaches and dramatic rock formations before arriving at the extraordinary Glacier Lagoon. Marvel at a landscape comprising crystal clear water and floating icebergs as you explore the area. As we arrive at Vatnajökull National Park you’ll start to feel the true force of nature, which becomes apparent when we reach the large glacial lake Jökulsárlón on the south-east corner of Vatnajökull National Park. The lagoon developed after the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier started receding around the 1930s. The lagoon has grown since then at varying rates due to the melting of the glaciers. We’ll also explore other wonders of Vatnajökull National Park. Including the Diamond Beach, Fjallsárjökull, and Skaftafell National Park. Don’t miss an opportunity to witness the true force of nature. Tour Highlights Jökulsárlón/Glacier lagoon Diamond beach Fjallsárjökull Vatnajökull glacier Skaftafell Svínafellsjökull
