Great 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!

Our 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.

Read 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.
