Turmuligheder
Rejseplan
Kort pause for komfort, før vi fortsætter vores rejse til Glacier Lagoon.
Eyjafjallajökull er en stratovulkan beliggende i Island, berømt for sit udbrud i 2010, der forårsagede omfattende forstyrrelser af flyrejser over hele Europa. Vulkanen er dækket af en gletsjer, eller "jökull" på islandsk, hvilket giver den dens navn.
Skógafoss er et majestætisk vandfald beliggende i det sydlige Island, langs Skógá-floden. Skógafoss er et af Islands mest ikoniske og hyppigt fotograferede vandfald, der tiltrækker besøgende fra hele verden. Legenden siger, at en skattekiste er gemt bag vandfaldet, hvilket tilføjer dets tiltrækning og mystik.
Frokostpause
Jökulsárlón er en fascinerende gletsjerlagune beliggende i det sydøstlige Island. Den er dannet af den smeltende is fra Breiðamerkurjökull-gletsjeren, hvilket resulterer i en fantastisk flade af fredfyldt blåt vand oversået med isbjerge. En bådtur på Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon tilbyder en fængslende rejse midt i de flydende isskulpturer. Når du glider gennem det iskolde vand, får du et nærmere kig på de indviklede detaljer i isbjergene og de livlige blå nuancer, de udviser.
Diamond Beach er en fængslende kystlinje, hvor isbjerge fra lagunen skyller op på det sorte vulkanske sand og skaber en fantastisk sammenstilling af teksturer og farver.
Vík er en charmerende kystlandsby beliggende i det sydlige Island, kendt for sine fantastiske sorte sandstrande og dramatiske klippeformationer til din middagspause. Dette stop giver dig mulighed for at slappe af, nyde et lækkert måltid og nyde skønheden i denne charmerende landsby.
Seljalandsfoss er et fantastisk vandfald, hvad der gør dette vandfald unikt er, at besøgende kan gå bag ved kaskaden, takket være en hulelignende konkav klippeformation. Seljalandsfoss er et fortryllende syn, især i de lange dagslystimer i Islands sommer.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our full day excursion (approximately 15 hours). Our driver and guide, Dylan Kincla was excellent. He was very knowledgeable and shared information all along the route. We learned about the history of Iceland, main industries such as fishing, farming and tourism, interesting facts on sheep and lamb that roamed freely everywhere as well as facts on the many Icelandic horses that we saw along the way. We also learned about Iceland’s renewable energy sources and the incredible amount of geothermal and hydropower. We visited Skogafoss waterfall which is one of Iceland’s most beautiful waterfalls. There was time to climb 527 steps to the viewing platform next to the falls and enjoy the beautiful scenery surrounding the falls although most people just walked up to the base and saw the waterfall up close without climbing steps. We also visited Seljalandsfoss which was another impressive famous waterfall. It was quite an experience to be able to walk on the path that took us behind the waterfall. Recommend wearing a rain jacket because the mist and spray gets you wet. The highlight of the day was seeing the icebergs up close on the optional amphibian Jokulsarlon glacier lagoon boat tour. The huge icebergs were shades of blue and white. It was beautiful to see panoramic views of the massive Vatnajokull glacier, the largest in Iceland, from the boat. This could also be seen on land for those who chose not to go on the boat tour but it was more impressive by to see things up close by boat. The boat tour had an English speaking guide who was full of energy and provided commentary. She also had a small iceberg on board for the passengers to pass around and take photos. We went to the Diamond Beach but we only saw a couple of very small pieces of ice on the shore. We were told by Dylan that it’s a hit or miss, sometimes there are a lot of icebergs and other times there are none. Still lovely to see the black sand beach and watch the waves of the Atlantic Ocean.
What a joy — and how lucky we were: beautiful weather, a blue sky, and hardly any wind. In a small group, we crossed the lagoon by zodiac, at times cruising gently and at other moments speeding across the water. The guide explained how the icebergs and ice floes are formed, the different colors in the ice, and the glacier itself. Several seals were resting on the ice floes, and we were able to view them from fairly close by. It was fascinating, enjoyable, and very well organized. Highly recommended. If you still have time, take a walk along the shore of Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon. We found the western shore more impressive, with better and more varied views of the icebergs and ice floes. It was especially lovely to see several seals swimming and playing. And, of course, do not forget to walk over to the beach to admire the chunks of ice washed up on the shore.
Amazing tour, highly recommend! Our tour guide/driver Leifur was super sweet and guided us well through all of it. Heidi also helped us with the tour and was very knowledgeable. Highly recommend them for this tour. Also, the boat tour is a must-do.

Gudjon Jes was one of our favourite tour guides in Iceland. He was super knowledgeable, approachable, and has a great sense of humour. We learned a lot about the history, myths, and the geological aspects of Iceland. Absolutely recommend him and these tours. Would not have learned this much if we explored on our own.
