Jökulsárlón is four and a half hours from Reykjavík, which makes it either a very long day or a reason to sleep in Vík. The 15 below cover the amphibian boats, the zodiacs that get close to the ice, and the day trips that pair it with Diamond Beach.

“If you want to maximize your sightseeing on the south coast, this is the right tour. Kristoff (Kiki) was a terrific guide and so incredibly accommodating.

Review of Iceland’s 14-hour Glacier Lagoon, Diamond Beach, and South Coast tour from Reykjavik, with practical tips on value, weather, and timing.
“First of all, this part of Iceland is gorgeous. Perhaps one should come down to southern Iceland and stay for a few days to enjoy everything. We were not prepared for a 15 hour day. We got on the bus about 7:15 am and got off the bus around 9:45pm. We then had to walk back to our AirbBnB. There were not enough bathroom stops, and when there was, there were too many people trying to use the facilities and stand in line (cue) to get something to eat, during the time we had at each stop. This was a big bus tour, not a small bus tour, so my…”
Review of the Jökulsárlón Crystal Blue Ice Cave tour, with Super Jeep transport, glacier guides, gear, pricing, practical tips, and drawbacks.
“The whole tour is an adventure. To get there you are transported by super-jeep closure to glacier. The road is not really the road but it is extremely funny. The guide was local, so ut was more interesting to get more information about the life of local people. We highly recommend you to visit. It is worth of money - the whole tour took us close to 4 hours and most of the time you are spending in the glacier.”
