Tour Description
This short tour takes you onto the iconic Jökulsálón Glacier Lagoon (also named: Breiðamerkurlón) in the South of Iceland. Here you will take an unforgettable boat ride on the strange “wheeled boats”. You will glide among the enormous icebergs that have broken off Vatnajökull, Europe’s largest glacier, and enjoy a site described as “A ghostly procession of luminous blue ice-bergs …” (The Lonely Planet). While drifting between the ice you’ll learn about the history and formation of the lagoon, as well as stories from the film productions of various Hollywood blockbusters, as scenes from films like James Bond and Batman were shot here.
