The standard lava tunnel tour with transfer allows you to explore the tunnel in an easy and enjoyable manner. The tunnel is covered in large rocks and is difficult to pass in many places. A footbridge and several paths have been built over the roughest terrain making the standard tour accessible by all. Impressive lighting in this part of the tunnel highlights the changing colors and clearly shows the powerful volcanic activity that formed the tunnel.
This tour, which includes transport, departs at 09:00 on select days from the BSI bus terminal. Pick up from other pick-up points begins 30 minutes before departure. Note the pickup is operated by Reykjavík Excursions and the bus is marked “Tour Pick Up”. Each tour takes approximately 3 hours with 55 – 60 minutes inside the cave.
Helmets and lights provided. Warm clothes and sturdy shoes are recommended and bear in mind that there is usually some water dripping from the ceiling so wearing a water-resistant or waterproof jacket/clothes is recommended.
Raufarhólshellir Lava Tunnel is an unforgettable experience.
