HOW to visit ICE CAVES in ICELAND!

- In this episode I'll share all the information I have on Ice Caves in Iceland. How to get to the ice caves and how to photograph the ice caves. Ice cave season is from November until and through March. Out of season the caves are too dangerous to enter. Ice caves and glaciers are extremely dangerous and that's why you have to get yourself a glacier guide. Guide To Iceland and Iceland Photo Tours arrange these tours and I have links to booking the tours here:

That certainly answers the "Iceland has been done to death" business. Thanks Mads, my Icelandic bucket list just keeps on growing!
The geology is just so amazing you could almost be on an entirely different planet. I can see why the filmed interstella sequences there. Your very lucky to have that as your back yard .
Sadly it is not my backyard as I live in Denmark ;)
@@MadsPeterIversen oh right i always forget that... it would be cool to see more of Denmark I know very little about it.
Super video, I will probably never get to visit one of these natural wonders, but you made it come to life for me. Thanks again
I was completely captivated by your film and your story telling of Iceland for hours tonight. I can move again so I'm going to bed now. I may need to cry a little, the marvels on this planet have a deep effect on me. Thank you for so much for this. I feel educated, joyful and inspired. Very good content.
I am very happy to hear that. Iceland is indeed and absolutely gorgeous country!
We are planning to visit Iceland in February but Ice Cave was not on the must do list but your video made me change my mind. Thank you.
Such a majestic part of Iceland - not the most famous but definitely one of the most idyllic and memorable
Fabulous video mads! You did the caves justice and I can say first hand the guides are amazing and do such a fabulous job
Thanks a lot, Chris! :D Very good to hear ;)
The look amazing these Ice caves!!! I will definitely go on one of these tours, when I will go tot Iceland some day!!! Love the last picture!!!
Just so cool. I will have to go back in winter sometime. Thank you as always for the great information.
Excellent video Mads, and an amazing selection of images. Hoping to visit the ice caves next January so this was invaluable.
You are much welcome, Otto!
This place is absolutely nuts. ❤❤❤ Love your shots.
More beautiful than I could ever imagine...yes the human element how else could we ever show the grandeur of this ever changing planet ...
What a stunning place. It has to go on my bucket list.
Another fascinating episode Mads and I cant think of ever seeing a location series that has offered up so much variety as much as yours. Can see why the final images of the caves will be special when their structure changes due to the climate and the images will never be replicated. Great images and loved the contrasts and shapes
Thank you as always! :D
Fantastic vlog mads, stunning images in an awesome place, thanks for sharing
this video makes me want to visit Iceland
Perfect timing :)
Heading over to Iceland from here in Aussie around late January/early February so this info is much appreciated, thanks Mads :))
Have watched all your videos on Iceland too, great stuff and very informative, cheers :)
Thanks a lot, Richie and you're welcome :)
Awesome video man, always wanted to visit the ice caves!
Love your videos, man! I've always wanted to go to the places you've been, so it's awesome to watch!
Such an interesting and educational video, Mads. How you managed to take such lovely images in those conditions is truly amazing. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you ever so much, Tony! :)
Goosebumps seeing your final results.
Best feeling ever! :)
Just beautiful caves.
Wonderful video and great images Mads.
Just booked my cave tour for 1st March.... cant wait :))))
Sounds awesome! Good luck :)
Fantastic episode Mads. I really enjoyed watching this, thank you !
Stunning, Mads!! That photo if the two rounded holes with the guy in one of them is so cool!!!
Thanks for the video, mate!!!
Thanks a lot, Hugo! :)
Great videos. Iceland looks brilliant. Will put it on my list to see in the coming year. Keep up the great work. Thanks!
Beautiful - you obviously enjoy your work and have a keen photographer's eye...
It's a joy..👏...everytime you bring out a new video...thanks Mads....hope to meet you on one of your workshops in the future.
regards,
Ben👍
Great work again Mads. Thnx for sharring.
Thank you very much Mads, very informative and great advice on gear, settings and composition
You are much welcome, David :)
Amazing video Mads and on the right moment for me ....... the last week of november i will visit an ice cave in Iceland ...... again many thanks for your tips !!!!!!
You are very welcome, Mario! :)
very informative re:how to take good photos ! really appreciate the attention to detail and for the vistor experience ! will book in
Hi Mads. What a fabulous location ! I don't imagine it's an easy place to photograph but I guess that's secondary to the experience of being there. Would love to visit one day. Thank you for sharing Mads.
Brilliaant video Mads. Certainly an experience to treasure.
Fantastic as ever Mads. On my one ice cave visit it was flooded. To be fair we were offered a full refund prior to departing, but decided to visit anyway. The 4x4 ride was unforgettable. The flooded cave less so. I’ll be sure to book another next time I’m in Iceland 😊
Another fantastic, information-packed video, thanks!
So beautiful! The glacier tours are very expensive but one day I am sure we will go ! Great video!
Much props to you Mads, I didn't expect there to be anything as obviously dangerous until you said this, great call, wouldn't like to be flattened by some ice, then have my body appear on the internet embedded in ice...
Thumbs up for this one now I want to go!!
Another great vlog mate,they look spectactular,would be good to visit 1 day..
This was soooo helpful! Thank you so much for all the excellent tips, Mads!
Now THAT was a great episode. I would never actually go into one of those damn caves - it would scare the bejesus out of me - but they are absolutely spectacular.
As long as you go with experienced guides they're quite safe :)
I definitely want to see an ice cave again! cool view man!
Great locations and superb photos!
And another epic video, Fantastic!!!!
Absolutely stunning !!
Holy comoly...Superb mix of images and sounds in the end creatief that filming Epic feelings, great marketing!
Amazing Mads, congrats for your incredible work!
Wow just stunning I'm going to go when I get some time. Also thank you for the great video
oh man that looks so impressive! that is truly stunning!
always a pleasure to watch great videos like this!
thanks for sharing so much great content with us
Is really really amazind photography congratulations
Thanks so much for posting this video.
Another amazing video Mads, hope you're having fun over in the Faroes , i just booked my flights to there today for next year :-)
Having great fun thanks a lot, Mark :)
Truely Amazing!!
Informative video. I did like the idea of using a photo tour company that is amenable to photographers needs...Will consider this for February trip.
Amazing shots Mads! Always waiting for your epic videos...! Did you have to wait for some people to leave the place or did each person have their turn to take some pictures?
Most people had their turn :)
Really SPECTACULAR Mads!!! when your new journey?
This is just amazing
Amazing video and photos for start
Why did stop putting the settings in the photos, like you did in the early videos from Iceland?
The main reason is you can't really use them as I often mix and blend many exposures, secondary it doesn't look good in the presentation of the photo, thirdly I don't want the presentation to be about the settings but about the photo itself :)
Mads Peter Iversen But I could get an ideia of what settings you use to get a certain effect.
I am going to Iceland for Christmas holidays and are seeing your videos on a loop and always getting goose bumps
Thanks a lot for that
Great video Mads
Thanks a lot, Halli! You're a great model ;)
Stunning video
Superb !
Awesome !!
I guess I will never have a chance to do this but thanks to this great video I can follow the camera to somehow experience it. I'm making a video about Iceland food. Please is it OK for me to use 2-3 seconds of your video in my intro part with a clear link to this whole video? I really want to show how awesome Iceland is through this. Thank you 🙏
AWESOME Mads.
Awesome Mads!!
nice cave🙂
Hi Mads, Appreciate your vedio for this beatiful landscape, for the ice cave, would you kindly advise which one is the best if I could only visit one and kindly advise the link of company for the tour. Thanks
Wow Fantastic!!! :)
amazing!!
Hi Mads. Thanks for the great video. I have a window of time at the beginning of March 2022. Do you know if there will be enough daylight to do photos at the waterfalls and caves ? I plan on doing some Northern lights of course
You mention November to March for ice caves but how does that compare with the rest of Iceland locations. For example. if one visits in March, will the other Iceland locations outside the caves be very cold, rainy, not much water in the waterfalls, weak auroras... and the caves being too dirty because of all the ice melting/end of visit season? I'm trying to figure out one season/month where most locations that you show in your Iceland videos look their best and the weather is not too adverse to capture them :-) Unsure if this is possible but certainly would like to try.The cave/photo with the two exits is epic by the way:-)
Everything is always accessible all year round beside the highlands. I'd go for start of October. That's where you get most bang for buck :)
Mads Peter Iversen Tnx Man, Oct is also around the corner - but I don't think I can make it this October. Would you say 2 weeks are enough to do all locations (would you advise more or less?).
Haven't you been at the Grand Canyon? I can't find a video from about it.
Nope, haven't been there. Would love to, but it's a hard one to photograph ;)
Lol who does that one Dislike xDD so incredible video keep it up !!
Has anyone done a cave tour in mid-October? Trying to see if that is possible.
Hello Mad,
Is that true, that - ice cave visits are happening only in the colder seasons - from late autumn to early spring?
Thank You!
Mads, sorry for my typo... -_-
Yes that is true, that's what I said in the video ;)
Hi Márk, katlatrack.is/ offer Ice Cave tours year round, they operate closer to Reykjavík in Mýrdalsjökull.
ruclips.net/video/2MEFA3t57T4/видео.html
What is the best time of day to do a tour (for best photographs)? i would think mid-day with the brightest light above the glacier? Looks like their first tour is 08:30, and their last is 16:00
That would be my guess too. For the most part I don't think it matters too much. You'll just have to increase the shutterspeed :)
Might be a silly question, but when taking photo's in daylight, there is a strong white light presence in some shots, have you or is it possible to go to these caves either sunrise/sunset if the sky was say on fire with deep oranges/reds, could that then be captured in the caves the contrasts between a fire and ice look might be a potential shot with suck bold colour contrasts?
I am not sure about that, Carlos. Maybe you could contact Guide to Iceland for a private tour.
Hi, I would like to ask is this the crystal ice cave please?
Is it worth visiting in early September? Thanks.
@@saka2456 yes, but not for ice caves
Hi Mads, I'm a US based landscape photographer leaving for Iceland in early March and would love to do an ice cave tour. Can you suggest any tour guides that are specific to photography/photographers?
Hi, nope sorry. Don't know anyone. We always use Guide to Iceland on a special tour.
красота
I'll tried to download the map for Iceland, being block by my browser........... any idea ????
Great video as per usual, Mads i need to thank you for the advice you gave me a few weeks ago, i nearly changed the dates of my iceland trip because of the full moon when we were going. However you told me the northern lights would still be visable, and boy were you right, we witnessed the most amazing aurora at the eystrahorn, thanks again, and keep up the good work , here is a link to one of my pics

is early october too early to see any caves or tours?
Yes, from my knowledge
Which tour is this ? Which area?
This is footage from many different tours, check the links below :)
Possible to enter ice caves around 7th April?
Most likely not.
When visiting this caves wear the cloves that you want to be buried with because it can become your grave and nobody will be able to undig you.
Its probably all gonna melt soon...
Is it possible to visit ice caves in May?
Sadly not, the caves are way too unstable...
