Explore one of Iceland’s most breathtaking natural wonders with our immersive Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon Package. Situated in the southeast of Iceland, Jokulsarlon is a glacial lagoon filled with luminous icebergs that have broken off from the nearby Breiðamerkurjökull Glacier. This magical destination, often called the “Crown Jewel of Iceland,” offers a surreal landscape of floating ice sculptures, mirror-like waters, and a close connection with Iceland’s glacial and volcanic power. This tour package is designed for travelers who want to experience the full beauty of Jokulsarlon, along with iconic stops like Diamond Beach, the South Coast, waterfalls, and more—all while enjoying comfort, expert guidance, and optional accommodations.
Jokulsarlon is one of the most photographed and iconic locations in Iceland. Formed by melting glaciers and fed by glacial runoff, the lagoon is a deep blue expanse where icebergs of varying shapes and sizes drift slowly towards the Atlantic Ocean. Visitors are often mesmerized by the contrast of the sparkling white-blue ice against the surrounding black sand beaches and snow-capped peaks. Whether you're a nature lover, a photographer, or simply a curious explorer, Jokulsarlon offers an awe-inspiring environment that's hard to match anywhere else on earth.
Begin your journey by heading east along Iceland’s scenic South Coast. Your guide will take you to iconic waterfalls such as Seljalandsfoss, where you can walk behind the cascading water, and Skógafoss, a powerful 60-meter waterfall that often produces vivid rainbows. Continue past black sand beaches and charming villages until you reach your accommodation near Skaftafell or Hofn (if choosing a multi-day option) ..

Wake up and head straight to Jokulsarlon, where you’ll have time to explore the lagoon, take photographs, and enjoy an optional boat tour among the floating icebergs.

If you're traveling in winter, this evening could also be your chance to witness the magical Northern Lights in this remote, low-light location.
