Iceland · JOKULSARLON GLACIER LAGOON TOURS
The lagoon is a five hour drive from Reykjavik, which is the fact that shapes every trip here. These 15 run as very long days, overnights or add-ons to a south coast route, and most pair the icebergs with the Diamond Beach where they wash back ashore.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our day. It was a long day packed with so many stops . Our tour guide Kris was brilliant, outstanding history and landmark knowledge. Our driver Robert was excellent . We encountered snow, sleet, rain and very high winds- he was very focused on the road and his driving skills shined through and kept us safe ! We were fortunate and were able to make an additional stop at another glacier and the Aurora showed up for us at Skogafoss - perfect day ! You won’t be disappointed!!”

Review of Iceland’s 2-day Blue Ice Cave and South Coast tour, with waterfalls, glaciers, Diamond Beach, lodging, costs, tips, and cave caveats.
“Our guide Mika was absolutely amazing. He was extremely knowledgeable about Iceland even though he is originally from southern France. On day 1 the weather was not ideal for one of our stops, so he mixed up the itinerary to still give us the chance to see everything. We really appreciated that. Plenty of stops for bathroom and snack breaks. The Blue Ice Cave was unlike any place you could imagine. Definitely do this tour.”
Review of Iceland’s 14-hour South Coast tour from Reykjavik, with Jökulsárlón, Diamond Beach, Vik, waterfalls, costs, and practical tips.
“I booked this trip as it included Glacier lagoon and Diamond Beach, besides a tour of the south shore. However, due to high winds the main attractions of Glacier lagoon and Diamond Beach, could not be completed. I appreciate Bus Travel Iceland’s decision to keep us safe but it was very disappointing as it was our last day in Iceland so we had no scope to rebook. However, I must say our guide Johans (I think) made every effort to take us to substitute attractions but most of these we’d already done or seen elsewhere in Iceland. When I messaged the company they agreed to provide a partial refund as…”

Review of Reykjavik’s 14.5-hour Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach tour, with waterfalls, South Coast scenery, bus tips, costs, and Northern Lights chances.
“Know that it is going to be a LONG DAY on a bus with ~40 other people, but it is still the easiest way to get out to Diamond Beach, etc. which are beautiful. Just be aware that this is really booking transportation to different points of interest/photo stops and not so much a "tour" with insights/history/etc. When you get to Vik in the evening, 100% recommend going to Black Crust Pizza (a 1 min walk from where the bus stops) instead of the buffet the rest of the group goes to. Bring lots of snacks/drinks & headphones/book/etc. for the long stints on the bus.”
