The contrasting nature provides the perfect backdrop for your next incentive. Groups can enjoy adrenaline fuelled activities such as snowmobiling, caving, ice climbing and 4x4 self drive experiences, before relaxing at the world famous Blue Lagoon or enjoying the wonders of the Golden Circle tour. Of course there is always the chance to chase the Northern Lights! This small list of ideas only scratches the surface of what is possible in Iceland; why not turn wild ideas into real adventures?

The Langjokull Ice Cave has a 500 meter long tunnel that has been excavated into the heart of the glacier. The tunnel is well lit with LED lights that have been custom fitted under the ice walls, giving a turquoise bluish light along it's corridors. There are two small event spaces, 1 for 35 people, the other for up to 65 people, that can be set up for a private gathering, presentation, meeting, or other form of happening you would like!
Incentives
Iceland offers world class incentive possibilities. Alongside the adrenaline pumped activities that come in conjunction with the nature of this destination, there is even the option to offer your groups the once in a lifetime experience of camping on the Glacier. Fully kitted out, luxury tents, provide the chance for your group to have a gala dinner under the northern lights before residing for the night in comfort. Even begin your glacier experience in style by taking a helicopter there and embarking on a 4x4 jeep drive to your camp.
