    Vacation in Iceland

    Great experience. This was my first trip to Iceland but not the last one. David the Guide, was magnificent. I really would like to thank everyone on their team. Always in time, fun trip. Hotels were great. Highly recommended.

    No ice caves on this trip!!

    There is no ice cave tour on this trip which was why we purchased this trip so we were very disappointed that they advertised falsely!! But our guide Ega was the best! We did hike on a glacier and boated among glacier icebergs. Saw amazing waterfalls and fun beaches. There is a lot of driving so be prepared to see a lot of the South Coast on your drive.

    exceptional

    You need to know that plans change. Our enite trip was reversed. Fortunately everything worked out. Iceland is a very unusual countyr. The terrain is all Volcanic rock and moss, with lots of waterfalls, mountains, glaciers, hot springs. We loved every minute of this trip

    Excellent trip itinerary and experience!

    The 3-day trip exceeded our expectations in terms of attractions visited and the arrangements with little need to bring extra equipment beyond a rain jacket and camera. Rodrigo was our guide for the last 2 days and he is great in the trip!

    3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.

    How much does 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights cost?

    +

    Prices start at $925 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reykjavik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights take?

    +

    Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reykjavik is not rushed.

    Is 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 82 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights?

    +

    Around 29 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reykjavik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reykjavik and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reykjavik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Reykjavik?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Reykjavik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland, Silfra Snorkeling Between Continents Photos Included- Self Drive, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Reykjavik?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Reykjavik?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights?

    +

    Included: Local guide; 2 nights accommodation with private bathrooms; Breakfast; and Hotel pick-up and drop-off. Not included: lunch and dinner; Hiking boots (optional extra); and Additional luggage (optional extra). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 1 listed pickup location in and around Reykjavik. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.

    What do travelers say about 3-Day Iceland Tour: Ice Cave, Glaciers & Northern Lights?
