Fly over lava fields, colourful highland ridges and deep ice crevasses before stepping onto ancient ice, then witness geothermal energy at bubbling mud pits and fly over the tectonic rift at Thingvellir. 🚁 Key Details Duration: approx. 2 hours 30 minutes including ground stops Experience type: glacier landing and geothermal helicopter tour Departure: Reykjavik Domestic Airport, Nauthólsvegur 58d Group size: 4 to 15 passengers (minimum 4) Route highlights: Langjokull glacier landing, Skjaldbreidur crater, Thingvellir, geothermal mud pits 🗺️ Itinerary After check-in at the hangar on the east side of Reykjavik Domestic Airport, this two-and-a-half-hour expedition crosses volcanic lava fields and enters the highlands before landing on Langjokull glacier at a spot reachable only by air. Two ground stops and extensive aerial sightseeing connect fire and ice in a single continuous journey. The return route overflies deep crevasses, Skjaldbreidur crater and Thingvellir National Park before a second landing at a remote geothermal area, finishing with a city flyover of Reykjavik. Your pilot adapts each stop to conditions on the day while keeping the full arc of the experience intact. 📍 Location Langjokull glacier sits in the Icelandic interior northwest of Reykjavik, where ice caps, colourful highland ridges and volcanic craters create one of the starkest fire-and-ice landscapes in the country. The geothermal stop on the return leg lies in southwest Iceland's active volcanic zone, where steam and mud pits mark the boundary between frozen highlands and living earth. Thingvellir's rift valley, visible from the air on the return route, shows where the North American and Eurasian plates pull apart in a landscape that has shaped both Iceland's geology and its history. Together these three zones give you a cross-section of the forces that built the island. ✅ Prerequisites No flying experience is required. Passengers should be able to board the aircraft and walk on uneven glacier and geothermal terrain with minimal assistance, following the pilot safety briefing at each stop. Flights depend on weather and aviation conditions. Glacier and geothermal landings may be adjusted if conditions are unsuitable on the day, and this tour requires a minimum of four passengers to operate. 💙 Why Choose Us This tour delivers both fire and ice i… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Scenic helicopter flight over volcanic and glacial landscapes Langjokull glacier landing and geothermal ground stop Professional pilot, safety briefing and use of the aircraft ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point Food and drinks Personal travel insurance Hotel pickup or drop-off ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### How long does the tour last? The full experience lasts around two and a half hours including check in, two ground stops, the glacier landing and return to the airport base. Allow at least 15 minutes before your scheduled departure for briefing and boarding. Time on Langjokull glacier and at the geothermal landing site gives you several minutes to explore and take photographs. ### Where do we meet? Flights depart from Reykjavik Domestic Airport at Nauthólsvegur 58d, building 313, hangar 1, on the east side of the airport behind the Icelandair Reykjavik Natura hotel. The base is not at the commercial airline terminal. Taxis from central Reykjavik typically take around five minutes. GPS coordinates are available on your booking confirmation. ### What will we see on the flight? The route crosses volcanic lava fields and colourful highland ridges before landing on Langjokull glacier at a location accessible only by helicopter. On the return leg you fly over deep crevasses, peek into the crater of shield volcano Skjaldbreidur, pass Thingvellir National Park and land at a remote geothermal area with bubbling mud pits. ### What happens in bad weather? Helicopter flights depend on weather and aviation conditions. If conditions are unsafe, the pilot may adjust the route, omit landings or postpone the flight. Wind, low cloud and visibility can affect glacier and geothermal landing sites in particular. The pilot makes the final call on the day to keep everyone safe. ### What should I wear? Wear sturdy shoes, a warm jacket, hat and gloves for glacier and geothermal landing portions. The helicopter cabin stays comfortable during flight, similar to a car interior. Glacier tops can be cold and windy even in summer. Dress in layers and bring a camera with a secure strap for photos on the ice and at geothermal stops. ### Is the flight suitable for children? Children are welcome on scenic flights. Infants may need to sit on a parent lap depending on the aircraft configuration and local aviation rules. Contact us before booking if you are travelling with very young children so we can confirm seating arrangements and any age restrictions for your date. ### Is hotel pickup included? Transport to Reykjavik Domestic Airport is not included in the flight price. Taxis and private transfers can reach the hangar in a few minutes from central Reykjavik hotels. Free parking is available near the meeting point for those driving. Plan to arrive early as late arrivals may miss strict aviation slot times. ### Is there a minimum group size? This tour requires a minimum of four passengers to operate. If the minimum is not reached, you may be offered an alternative date or join another scheduled departure. Contact the team before booking if you are a smaller group to discuss availability and scheduling options for your preferred date. ### Do we land on the glacier? Yes, the tour includes a landing on Langjokull glacier where you can walk on the ice, make snow angels and enjoy panoramic highland views in complete silence. The landing site is at an exclusive location accessible only by helicopter, offering a genuine glacier experience without the crowds of road-based tours. ### How long do we spend on the glacier? You typically have several minutes on Langjokull glacier to walk on the ice, take photographs and enjoy the highland views before reboarding. A second ground stop at a geothermal area adds further time on the ground during the return leg of the tour. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/6a2d8d4e-4226-4c19-834e-25ef76b6fa27.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 3 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
