Please note that there are multiple operators utilizing the same cavern, hence we cannot ensure exclusivity. For a less packed adventure, we suggest considering our blue ice experience - glacier trekking missions.
This is an intimate group trip to the Sapphire ice cave present in Vatnajökull, the biggest glacier in Europe. This excursion is run by a small, indigenous company.
You will converge with your certified guide at Jökulsárlón. Then, a roughly 30 minutes drive in a 4x4 vehicle will get you to the glacier’s parking lot. It’s an approximate 20-minute hike to the glacier’s rim where the Sapphire cave lies. We typicaly allot between 30-45 minutes for cave exploration, providing ample time for photo ops and investigating the cave’s different structures.
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
