Day 9: INTO THE GLACIER – PROCEED TOWARDS REYKJAVIK
Today post breakfast drive towards Hellnar. Enroute visit Barnafoss and Hraunfossar. Proceed for Into the
Glacier Activity.
INCLUDED ACTIVITY: Into the Glacier
Duration 4 hours
While there are a few man-made ice tunnels and ice caves in various places around the world, there is
nothing quite like Into the glacier as this tunnel is high up in a remote area of an ice cap glacier. Never
before has anyone been able to see the beautiful blue ice at the centre of an ice cap glacier. It is not quite a
Jules Verne journey to the centre of the earth, or even to the absolute centre of the glacier, but it feels like
an exciting and magical journey, deep within the glacier, and it is deep enough to reach another world, a
world of magnificent, stunning blue ice.
Drive towards Reykjavik. Proceed to Blue lagoon for an experience of a life time
INCLUDED ACTIVITY: Blue Lagoon Comfort Entrance
Duration 2 hours
At the Blue Lagoon, visitors have the unique opportunity to bask in geothermally heated water, surrounded
