Summit Adventure Guides is a company that gives you the offer to take tours in caves glaciers and summits with the length of each tour ranging from 45 minutes to 5 hours and for the cave tour, the price ranges from 1500 ISK- 3750 ISK depending on your age as 5-11 year old go free. The cave you will visit is 8000 years old and is a lava tube created by a volcanic eruption from a nearby crater in the Purkhólar crater family. As soon as the eruption ceased, all of the lava beneath the crust began to drain. This finally left an empty tube with a roof on top that cooled down over time.
Although the cave tour operates all year round the glacier tour only operates from July-September. this is Iceland’s shortest glacier which totally lasts about 3 hours but only 1.5 hours will be on the ice. It is heavily suggested that you bring clothes that will keep you warm as it can get chilly but all the equipment they provide.
