Glacier Lagoon Helicopter Tour 

You will never forget the day you got married, your child’s birth, and the day you did this tour. It’s as simple as that.

From Reykjavik, we fly East along the dramatic South Coast of Iceland. En route to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, we follow the never-ending stretches of black lava sand beaches past the famous Eyjafjallajökull glacier volcano and tumbling waterfalls. Once we reach the glacier lagoon, we stop for 30-45 minutes to give you time for a boat ride (not included), iceberg exploration, and seal watching. As we head back on a westerly heading, we fly over the countless Vatnajökull glacier tongues, past the highest peak of Iceland, and to the remote and rugged Fjallabak nature reserve.

You’ll see parts of the island that are hidden to all but a few and get access to highland lakes, braided rivers, glacial-hewn valleys, towering mountains, and majestic and primeval volcanic scenery. We’ll explore the colorful mountain ranges around Landmannalaugar geothermal area and Hraftinnusker before we fly past Hekla volcano en route back to Reykjavík city.

During the whole tour, we will make three landings. One is at the glacier lagoon, but the other depends on your interest. Usually, we land on Fimmvörðuháls by Eyjafjallajökull glacier volcano and at the Hraftinnusker geothermal area. Included in the tour is a packed lunch.

Your pilot will choose a scenic location to stop for a picnic. This tour is bound to exceed even the highest expectations!

Important informations

After you complete the booking, we will inform you about the exact starting time for the tour. We will ask for additional information; if you can, kindly provide us your phone number, email, and approx. weight on each passenger.

Please note that this tour is weather dependent, and if the weather forecast is not promising at the time of your booked tour, we always try to:

A) change the time on the same day (e.g., go in the afternoon instead of the morning)

B) offer to go on a different date (e.g., the day before or the day after)

C) if we are fully booked and can not offer options A and B, we always give a full refund!

We recommend wearing good shoes, warm jackets, hats, and gloves. It does not get cold inside the helicopter (similar to sitting in a car), but it can get cold and windy on Icelandic mountaintops.
