Full description
For ships with a port window under 9 hours, this streamlined version delivers the glacier experience without the geological stops.Transfer from Grundarfjörður directly to Húsafell, where modified monster trucks ascend Langjökull glacier. One hour of guided snowmobiling on open ice — altitude, views across the West Iceland highlands, and all equipment provided at the staging area.Lunch follows at Húsafell Resort (pre-arranged set menu) before the return coastal drive to the ship.The itinerary carries a 35-minute buffer before ETD — larger than the v3 buffer, making this version more suitable for ships where schedule discipline is critical or port times are tight.Maximum 24 guests.

Reviews
My wife, adult daughter and I booked this tour with “Your Friend in Reykjavik” through Viator the during the afternoon we arrived in Iceland. Our tour guide, Cristin, was excellent. She met the group at the designated meeting location ahead of schedule. She was very friendly and informative about everything Reykjavik. Iceland is a fascinating place with so much history, and she did a great job of bringing it to life. We would definitely recommend this tour and guide to anyone new to the city.
Ester E was our guide today on our Iceland Women walking tour and the group LOVED her and the tour. We enjoyed hanging out for conversation after the walking portion as well. I would highly recommend doing a tour with Ester E!
The local food tour was amazing. We had a goupt of 9 of us and a few others along. Our guide Palli was very informative, helpful, attentive, and so much fun to have lead us through Reykjavik. A great was to kick off our vacation. The food stops were all great. Lots of fish and lamb and stews and sweets.
