5Great views and once in a life time experience!
This was a blast! Got to ride in a massive jeep that took us to the glacier. We walked across the glacier and went to multiple ice caves. Our guide Valentiñ was amazing!
5Amazing
Amazing experience! Our guide was great, very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly! I would highly recommend this to everyone
2Our driver and snowmobile...
Our driver and snowmobile guides were great! However once we boarded and got down the road the driver informed us that the ice caves were not going to be open that day, which was a huge disappointment as that was one of the main things we wanted to see in Iceland. On top of that, a vehicle got stuck which delayed our return significantly and the other activities we had planned for the day had to be canceled. The snowmobile activity was okay, it was slow going. I would have expected a partial refund of our 5 tickets for the ice caves not being open and for the delayed return, but there was no manager there to speak to.
1Read before booking
This excursion is very remote and also be aware that travel conditions by road can be unpredictable. Our family did not feel safe traveling the distance with 50 km/h winds and widespread road closures. We were in contact and felt confident that any reasonable person would understand the situation, however we were unable to cancel due to “24 hour policy”. That’s BS. Try a different tour group, no refund $1000 down the toilet. Thanks for nothing.
5Awesome time
Tour was delayed due to weather but they took us as soon as it cleared. Awesome experience. 5 caves. Great knowledge.
5Breathtaking Glacier Adventure
We did a glacier tour yesterday and it was truly unforgettable. Our guide was incredibly accommodating with our family, especially with our two kids (ages 5 and 8), which made a big difference. Shout out to “Benny” for the knowledge facts and tour! It was described as a “picture perfect” day—and while the views absolutely lived up to that, the winds and elements were still intense. This is definitely not a casual զբ stroll; as they reminded us beforehand, this isn’t Disney. Staying close to your kids and being prepared for real conditions is important. That said, for adventure-loving, well-behaved kids who don’t mind a bit of a hike, this experience is beyond worth it. Seeing the glacier up close was breathtaking and honestly life-changing. One of those moments we’ll be talking about for years.
