Come Jump In A Volcano In Iceland
Why don’t you go jump in a volcano? That sounds more like an insult than an invitation. But believe us, it’s worth it. In this case you don’t exactly jump, but are slowly lowered into the bowels of a, hopefully, inactive volcano. With each metre down, your inner geology nerd awakens, until words like “igneous” start showing up in every conversion. The photos of you in spelunking gear are social media gold, but photos alone can’t do the experience justice.
Join us as we take a journey into the depths of one of Iceland’s volcanoes and explore what exactly makes this attraction an unmissable part of any trip to Iceland.
Here’s our best try:
