Top-Rated Family Rafting-Warm Drysuits, Volcanic Canyon, Epic Fun Discount Tickets

Overview

Early into the canyon we pull over and hand everyone hot cocoa brewed from a natural geothermal spring right on the riverbank. In a glacial canyon. In Iceland. That moment alone surprises every single guest. The West Glacial River runs through one of Iceland's most beautiful volcanic canyons — gentle Grade 2-2+ rapids, stunning basalt walls, and a cliff jump waiting at the final stretch. Our guides make the call and we rarely skip it. Every guest gets a full drysuit. Not a wetsuit. Nobody gets cold, nobody checks out early. The whole family stays warm and present the entire way through. No experience needed. Ages 6 and up.
