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 Hotel Smyrlabjörg. Once everyone's arrived, the guide will give us tips on how to handle the kayaks and explain safety measures to follow.

We'll then head to the lagoon of the Vatnajökull glacier, one of Iceland's most important and famous glaciers. Upon arrival, we'll start our kayak tour and row through the icy water while admiring panoramic views of the spring and its surroundings.
