What to Expect

Scenic Flight: You’ll board a small plane for a smooth, low-altitude flight over Iceland’s glaciers, such as Vatnajökull (Europe’s largest glacier), Langjökull, or Mýrdalsjökull, depending on the route.

Aerial Views: Expect to see crystal-blue crevasses, glacier tongues, volcanic craters, and possibly active geothermal areas.

Photography: Return home with stunning photos of wild nature. Aircraft’s panoramic windows offer great photo opportunities.

Expert Commentary: Enjoy an informative commentary by your pilot about Iceland’s geology, glacial movements, and the effects of climate change on these ice caps.

Tour Details

  • Duration: Approximately 1–2 hours.
  • Departure Point: Usually from Reykjavik Domestic Airport or a regional airport closer to the glaciers.
