If you've ever wondered what it would be like to kayak around a glacier, our Vatnajökull Glacier Kayak Tour is perfect for you. You'll row through the breathtaking Icelandic wilderness and have an unforgettable adventure.

Description

At your chosen time, we'll meet in front of the Gerði Guesthouse. Once everyone's arrived, the guide will provide tips on how to handle the kayaks and explain necessary safety measures.

We'll then head to the lagoon of the Vatnajökull glacier, one of Iceland's most significant glaciers. Once at the shore, we will begin our kayak tour, rowing through the icy water while enjoying panoramic views of the area.

Halfway through our journey, we will stop for a short walk on the Vatnajökull glacier to observe this impressive natural formation. You'll perceive its vastness as it covers 10% of Iceland's surface area.

The tour concludes as we return to the starting point after 3.5 hours of adventure.
