What To Expect
Your adventure will commence at the Reykjavik Domestic Airport. Our experienced pilot will greet you with the warmest welcome and whisk you straight towards the Þórisjökull glacier for our first landing. During the journey towards the glacier we will fly you across the highest most bedazzled waterfall in all of Iceland; the famed Glymur.
This helicopter tour will save you hours of hiking and you will enjoy the panoramic view from your comfortable seat high in the sky. Once we reach our designated landing stop atop the vast glacier; you will have a chance to meander across the glacier, take photos and make countless memories! Throw snowballs, have a snowball fight! Build your very own snow angel and try making an snowman! Just simply enjoying the stunning view is enough in its own right as well! The crisp fresh glacier air is tantalizing to your senses.

5.00It was perfect. The guide ensured that we were all comfortable. I felt a bit nauseous, and he did everything to make sure it remained a great experience. I took the best photos! He took so much time to explore everything. Every cent was worth it.

5.00Getting in the hello was difficult for person with limited mobility (81 years) but was helped by pilot and was able to attend. The scenery is to die for. Our pilot was very informative and helpful. This is a great tour, completely different from the Alaska helicopter ride to a glacier

5.00I had the pleasure of experiencing two beautiful hours; everything was perfectly organized (I was picked up from the hotel). The pilot was very trustworthy, answered all questions, and gave the feeling of having plenty of time at the stops. A thoroughly good time. Thank you very much to the entire team
Worth every penny

5.00We had a fantastic, never-to-be-forgotten trip. We were lucky with having brilliant conditions, but it couldn't have been better anyway. Well organised, great pilot (Laura) and the highlight of our visit.
Very experienced

5.00Just exceptional, the whole experience was real bucket list stuff. Laura the pilot was both a skilled pilot and a geo physicist! The perfect combination for landing on a volcano then telling your all about it. Highly recommend.
Love, love, loved it!
