Where to meet us
Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon main parking lot — the lot closest to the lagoon. Parking is operated by Vatnajökull National Park and a parking fee applies.
Meeting point
We meet at the main parking area of Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon — the lot closest to the lagoon itself. Look for our Super Jeeps with the green Glacier Trips logo.

Arriving from Reykjavík
About 5 hours' drive along Route 1 (the Ring Road). Most guests stay overnight nearby — Höfn, Hali, or Hof — the night before the tour.
Parking
The lagoon parking lot is operated by Vatnajökull National Park, which charges a parking fee — this is paid to the park, not to Glacier Trips. Arrive at least 20 minutes before departure (30 minutes for Adventures Dream) so you have time to find the Super Jeeps and use the restrooms.
While you're in the area
Visiting in summer, outside our October–April ice cave season? The local operators we trust run day tours nearby — a guided glacier walk on Breiðamerkurjökull 13 km east of the lagoon, and a kayak among the icebergs on Heinabergslón midway between here and Höfn. See all the local tours we recommend.
