Tourist information center located in Kirkjubaejarklaustur. Get all the information you need about the area, check out our exhibition about moss and see a film about the Laki eruption.
Very helpful staff at visitor centre- so a very good place to stop if you need a rest on Route 1. We watched a film about the Laki visiting eruption in 1482-83 and how it had really affected Iceland- it killed 20% of the population immediately- and that was 10,000 people, as population then 50,000. People also dies all over Europe immediately - about 1 million people in all! I felt bad, as we were affected as a family by the 2010 Icelandic eruption of Eyjafjallajökull. Although relatively small for volcanic eruptions, it caused enormous disruption to our family's air travel, as all flights were stopped by it, across western and northern Europe in April 2010, when our family were trying to fly back from Lisbon after an Easter holiday! People in Iceland also dies after the Laki eruption, as the acid rain and ash caused by and from the eruption, caused livestock to die after becoming emaciated due to insufficient food, because nothing could grow due to the acid rain.

The tour far exceeded our expectations. From the beginning our guide ENNO was helpful, engaging and knowledgeable. It was such a great experience and my favorite of my time in Iceland. The water is beautiful and what you see is beyond belief. DIVE.IS are a fantastic company, with great guides, communication and easy to deal with. I’d definitely do it again and would recommend this tour highly.

a very special trip into the langjokull glacier is a once in a lifetime experience. An experienced guide went with us through the tunnels carved out. The enterance to the tunnels are at 1200m height.
