You will get up close and personal with a vast glacial tongue of the great Vatnajökull glacier, the biggest glacier cap in Europe. We set out to visit the renowned Jökulsárlón Glacier lagoon, as seen in several movies such as Batman Begins and The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. This is trouly a picturesque location so be sure to bring your camera with you. Splendid icebergs of amazing shape, jostling one another in the huge lagoon before going on their journey to the Atlantic ocean. Many of the ice bergs wash onto the nearby Diamond Beach, where you will see them glittering like diamonds, as they rest on the black sand beach. Next you will go on and into the glacier along with a qualified guide. New ice caves are formed every winter after the glacier starts it's cycle of freezing again with the ever changing weather. The visit to the ice cave will be yet another picturesque moment and will give a great opportunity to capture the blue ligth which passes through the glacial ice. After visiting the ice cave we head towards Reykjavík again. We will stop at Skaftafell Nature Reserve located in Vatnajökull National Park, a green area in the midst of mountains and glacier peaks. On the way back to the city, keep an eye out for the northern Lights. you will arrive in Reykjavík at approximately 9pm.
