About

Take on a full day's worth of adventure at some of Iceland's best South Coast locations.

Your first activity is our glacier hiking tour. You will meet your guide at Icelandic Mountain Guides Base Camp. You will meet your certified and expert glacier guide, who will lead you on a 2.5 hour long excursion through the fascinating features of Sólheimajökull glacier. After a safety briefing and a tutorial on how to use your glacier equipment, you will make your way onto the glacier, for a short and safe glacier walk around the deep crevasses, ice formations and tunnels on Sólheimajökull. No prior experience is needed for fantastic glacier adventure.

After you finish your glacier hiking tour, we head back to the base camp where you can take in the surrounding landscape of Sólheimajökull before your next adventure. You will make your own way to the next part of the combo tour, to our Mýrdalsjökull base, on road 222.  There you will meet our certified ATV guides who will gear you up and prepare you for the 2 hour ATV experience on the black sands and visit the DC-3 plane wreck.

Both tours are suitable for all skill levels and are led by professional and certified glacier guides, with all safety equipment provided.
