The highlight of the day is the visit to Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon. Watch as giant icebergs float serenely in the glacial lake and, in summer, take an optional amphibian boat ride among the ice. Just across the road is Diamond Beach, where shards of glacier ice rest on the striking black sand, offering one of the most photogenic landscapes in Iceland.
Our Jokulsarlon Day Trip Package is ideal for travelers short on time who still want to witness Iceland’s crown jewels in a day. With a small group format or larger coach options, you can choose your comfort level and price point.

We recommend booking the Jokulsarlon day trip in advance, especially during summer and holiday seasons when tours fill up quickly. Choose from economy group departures or small group luxury options.
