About this experience

Embark on an exhilarating one-day Super Jeep tour that transports you to the enchanting South Coast, featuring an added and thrilling Ice Cave experience at Katla Ice Cave. The day's journey commences with a visit to one of Iceland's most picturesque waterfalls, Seljalandsfoss. For those with sure footing, there's an opportunity to venture behind the thundering cascade. Yet, caution is advised, as the trail is narrow and can become slippery, especially during winter. Sturdy footwear is highly recommended. Seljalandsfoss is renowned as one of Iceland's most photographed spots, and during the winter months, it's beautifully illuminated, allowing you to revel in its enchantment year-round.

Our next stop leads us to one of Iceland's grandest waterfalls, the awe-inspiring Skógafoss. This majestic waterfall sources its waters from the two surrounding glaciers, Eyjafjallajökull and Mýrdalsjökull. On sunny days, the spray often gifts us with vibrant rainbows, but be prepared to get a bit wet if you venture too close. The experience of standing near Skógafoss is empowering, and this area also serves as the starting point for those inclined to hike the renowned Fimmvörðuháls trail to Þórsmörk, one of Iceland's most popular hiking routes.

The grand finale of our adventure leads us to Katla Ice Cave, where you have an opportunity to have an extraordinary ice caving experience at this magnificent glacier adorned with its blue ice formations and ever-evolving frozen water world. Our expert glacier guide will accompany you, ensuring your safety during this icy expedition. We provide all the necessary equipment, including crampons, ice axes, and helmets, ensuring your complete preparedness for this frozen adventure.

Following this remarkable glacier experience, our journey continues with an exciting drive to the black volcanic beaches of the southern coast. Here, panoramic views unfold in every direction, with the Atlantic Ocean pounding the shore on one side and the captivating backdrop of glaciers and volcanoes on the other.

Cancellation for this tour

Free cancellation until 2 days before departure; no refund after that. If the operator cancels for weather or safety, you get a full refund or a new date.

If the weather cancels this tour

Iceland's weather is real. What usually stops this one is melt-water or unstable ice after a warm spell — the guide decides on the morning, and a cave can close for days. Here is exactly what happens to your booking.

1Amazing Tours Iceland decides, and tells us. Operators cancel when it is unsafe or pointless, and we back that call every time — we do not ask them to run anyway.
2We contact you by email, and by phone if your tour is the same or next day. You choose: another date if there is one you can make, or a full refund. There is no fee and nothing to argue.
3The refund goes back to the card you paid with, through Stripe, usually visible within a few working days. If this tour was one of several in your booking, the others are untouched.

What you do not get is the day back. If this is the only free day in your plan, put a spare day next to it — the planner leaves days free with the rest-day option. And if you want out because the forecast looks bad, that is your own cancellation: free until 2 days before departure, the operator's policy after that.

Who this is not for

Children under 10 cannot join this one.
Priced per vehicle, so it is poor value for one or two people and good value for four or more sharing.

We did the solar eclipse tour with Sven and Lisa and it was truly an amazing experience! We spent 13 hours hunting the best viewing spot and got to see the eclipse better than we expected. Sven is so knowledgeable about the history and geography of Iceland and I loved listening to his commentary. Lisa was warm and funny and gave us all hand-knitted hats to wear and take home. Spending the day with this tour was the highlight of our trip and we would highly recommend the company and particularly Sven for any adventure!

We personally had a great service (specifically Dominika ) from amazing tours. I emailed and dealt with them/her directly for a deal on 3 tours . Snowmobiling , helicopter and Northern lights. All were amazing! Northern lights are a natural occurrence and whilst seeing in bright green with the naked eye wasn't possible that night we did still see it faintly and the host was amazing and took some great shots and supplied some home made Coco 🤗the helicopter tour of the volcano area was so surreal! And the snowmobile tour was one of my favourite tours ever ! We got so lucky with snow the night before. Great tour operator and highly recommended !

My friend and I were looking forward to this tour the most for our girls trip to Iceland and we were not disappointed! This was one of the best tours I've done while traveling abroad and such a great value. Close out of any other tabs you have open for snowmobiling, this is it! Not rushed, fun ride up to the glacier where you change, and get on your snowmobile. After the first leg of snowmobiling, your guide will take you to a newly discovered ice cave...its truly beautiful! After that, you'll snowmobile back. Our tour was filled with laughs, jokes, and informative facts about the glacier, ice cave, etc. Please don't pass this one up!

Ice caves — questions people ask

When can you visit an ice cave in Iceland?

Natural blue ice caves open from around November to March, when the glacier is cold enough for the meltwater tunnels to be safe. They form under Vatnajökull near Jökulsárlón, and the caves change every year. Two exceptions run all year: the Katla ice cave near Vík, which is dark ice striped with ash, and Into the Glacier at Langjökull, a man-made tunnel. If you want the glowing blue photos, come between November and March.

Can I do an ice cave tour as a day trip from Reykjavík?

Only the Katla cave. The South Coast and Katla ice cave tour (/experience/22559/) is about twelve hours from Reykjavík and back. The blue caves at Vatnajökull are five hours' drive each way, too far for a day, so operators sell them as two- or three-day tours (/experience/6131/, /experience/7358/) with a night near Jökulsárlón. If you are self-driving, stay in the Höfn or Skaftafell area and book the Crystal Ice Cave tour (/experience/17337/) from there.

Is the Katla ice cave as good as the blue ice caves?

Different, not worse. Katla's cave under Mýrdalsjökull is black and white, layered with volcanic ash, and open all year. It will not give you the glowing blue tunnel photos from Instagram; those are the Vatnajökull caves, November to March only. What Katla gives you is a shorter super-jeep drive from Vík (/experience/22558/) and availability in summer. If you are here between November and March and can reach Jökulsárlón, choose blue. Otherwise choose Katla.

Are ice caves safe?

With a guide, yes. Operators inspect the caves daily and cancel when meltwater, warm weather or ice movement makes them unsafe, which happens most often in November and March at the edges of the season. You wear a helmet and crampons and stay with the group. Never enter a glacier cave on your own. If your tour is cancelled for safety, you get a full refund or another date, and most operators try to substitute another cave first.
