Jökulsárlón Glacier Kayak Tour
Jökulsárlón Glacier Kayak Tour
We will meet up at the time of your choice in the parking lot of the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon. Once we are all there, the guide will give us the basic instructions to learn how to handle the kayaks and practice the activity in a totally safe way.
Then, we will get on the boats and start paddling around the lagoon. Along the way, you will witness the beauty of one of the most special places in Iceland. We will row among the icebergs coming from the Vatnajökull glacier, discovering the landscape of Jökulsárlón in a super fun way.
Also, if we are lucky, we will meet some of the animals that live in this area, including the friendly seals. And of course, we will not leave without revealing the films that have been shot in the Jökulsárlón lagoon. For example, did you know that it was the setting for James Bond's Die Another Day?
Finally, we will return to the starting point, where we will leave the kayaks after a trip of one and a half hours.
