Jökulsárlón – Glacier Lagoon est une merveille naturelle étonnante créée par le Vatnajökull, le plus grand glacier d’Europe. Le lagon calme brille d'icebergs flottants qui se déplacent doucement contre les hautes vues de montagne. Les visiteurs sont émerveillés par la glace bleu vif et le sentiment paisible de la nature sauvage qui les entoure. La lagune glaciaire de Jökulsárlón montre la beauté pure des paysages glacés d'Islande. La vue est toujours changeante, avec des couleurs et une lumière incroyables, surtout au lever et au coucher du soleil.
Diamond Beach est un endroit naturel merveilleux sur la côte sud-est de l'Islande. Cette belle plage est célèbre pour son sable noir et ses morceaux de glace brillants du glacier voisin, qui ressemblent à des diamants sur la rive. Les visiteurs apprécient le mélange magique de sable sombre et de glace claire alors que la glace fond lentement dans l'océan Atlantique.

What an incredible day. Adriana was lovely. This is a small group tour, and you will be in a 6 seater van or a 4 seat car with others, it was cosy but we loved the intimacy and found it better than being in a bus of 50 people. The drive to the glaciers and diamond beach is approx 2 hours,,, but extremely worth the drive!! The colours of the icebergs and the black sand were incredible. Highly recommended!! 10 out of 10
Very reputable and great experience with the family. They were always attentive and answered right away any questions about the tour.
The places we visited were amazing and diamond beach couldn’t have been more amazing so it was timed well. The only thing I feel I should point out is that it says the tour is in english but the drivers english was so broken we could barely understand anything he said so asking questions or him giving info while driving was out of the question. He did have a coworker who was driving a separate vehicle and she would give us instructions for the next stop before we pulled out. Took us a min to find them at the port because they were behind a building and it was rainy and cold so that sucked but we eventually found them and got the tour started. I still can’t say enough about how awesome glacier bay and diamond beach were though!
Adriana was a wonerful guide. We visited two glaciers at Glacier Lagoon plus stopped at Diamond beach. Plenty of rest stops and other stops along the way. Adriana knew which photographic angles to take and took many pictures of us at the sites.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure to spend the day with you. I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed visiting the two glacier lagoons and Diamond Beach, and that the stops along the way added to your experience. I'm especially happy that you appreciated the photography tips and the photos I took for you—it's always my pleasure to help our guests capture special memories of Iceland. Thank you for choosing Artistica Tours. I hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future! Warm regards,
We were very lucky to have a nice day. We could see the glaciers and diamond beach. The guide provided us with a lot of information, along with an audio that we found very helpful. The driver was very friendly and his English is enough to speak with us.
Thank you for your kind review! We're delighted you had beautiful weather to enjoy the glaciers and Diamond Beach. It's wonderful to hear that you found the audio guide informative and that our driver helped make your experience enjoyable. We truly appreciate your feedback and hope to welcome you back to Iceland again someday! Warm regards,
This experience went above and beyond our expectations. Seeing the sights of Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach are a must see while in this area. The drive along the was was so spectacular as well.
Thank you Erica so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that the tour exceeded your expectations. Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach are truly some of Iceland's most breathtaking natural wonders, and we're so happy you enjoyed experiencing them. We also agree—the drive along the South Coast is spectacular, with incredible scenery around every corner. It was a pleasure to have you on our tour, and we hope to welcome you back to Iceland for another adventure in the future!
We enjoyed the tour. We got to see the glacier lagoon, diamond beach, an Icelandic village and several viewpoints. I wasn't sure if the tour was offered just by the guide or whether it was a formal company since it was a 4 seater private car. She had a separate driver and they were both very friendly. Most of the educational part was from a recorded message playing on the radio. We also saw a few herds of reindeer and lots of sheep goats and Icelandic horses. The only frustration is they don't provide any food except for some Icelandic chocolates. For a 7 hour your that was a bit frustrating. We could have purchased food at the glacier lagoon but that was barely 2.5hrs in to the tour and we weren't super hungry yet. And it was nearly $400pp!
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed visiting the Glacier Lagoon, Diamond Beach, the Icelandic village, the scenic viewpoints, and that you were able to see reindeer, Icelandic horses, sheep, and goats along the way. We're also glad you found our guide and driver friendly and welcoming. Regarding the food, we completely understand your perspective. We make it clear in our tour description that meals are not included. We made this decision after previously offering food, as we found it was very difficult to accommodate everyone's dietary preferences and expectations. We frequently received complaints about the meal options, including requests for vegan alternatives or comments that guests didn't enjoy the food provided. To avoid these issues and give our guests the freedom to choose what they prefer, we now leave meal purchases up to each traveler. We truly appreciate your feedback, and we'll certainly consider whether adding another food stop later in the tour could improve the experience for future guests. Thank you again for choosing our tour, and we hope to welcome you back to Iceland in the future.
The destinations were great and as advertised. However the tour left much to be desired. We were crammed into a small car (2 couples unknown to each other). Other passengers were large and the whole trip was very uncomfortable. There was no WiFi. The driver was Spanish- and knew very little English. He played a recording of Iceland but could not answer any questions. The company did have a minivan but used it for others on a shorter trip. Would only book this if the trip is in the minivan and the driver can speak English and knows about Iceland.
Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the destinations, but we’re sorry to hear that you found the seating uncomfortable. The vehicle used for your tour was a large 4WD with 7 seats. At the start of the trip, we offered to open the two extra seats in the very back to provide more space, but the group declined this option. Our driver suggested that the largest passenger take the roomiest seat in the front, and that his wife, being petite, could move to the back next to you, so everyone would have more space. However, she preferred to remain in the front seat, which unfortunately made the ride less comfortable for others. The recorded commentary you heard was made especially for our tours and contains unique local stories and history that are not available online. While the driver’s first language is Spanish, he is able to provide safe driving, good hospitality, and access to the same quality information for all guests. We appreciate your comments and will continue working to improve both comfort and communication for future travelers.
The tour was very well organised, with timely pick up at the harbour. Comfortable minivan with excellent driver, convenient comfort breaks and well taken care of when we reached the lagoon and diamond beach. Would recommend
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the tour and appreciated the smooth organization, comfortable ride, and our team's care throughout the experience. It's wonderful to know the lagoon and Diamond Beach made a great impression. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you on another adventure in the future!
