Why Travelers Love This
We specialise in full day adventurous glacier hikes and ice cave visits with a focus on delivering a more immersive experience on the ice. •Our guest to guide ratio is the smallest in the industry (4:1), •Minimum moderate fitness requirement, means more adventurous opportunities. •We're naturalists, so you'll hear facts and stories of the geological forces that produced this surreal part of the world. As well as the opportunity to get detailed explanations through the day of any questions you may have about glaciers and their impacts. •Even though it is not a requirement to have been on a glacier before, maybe this time you want to go further and 'do more'. •Expect to be outside all day in the wilderness ready to face wind, rain, snow, be lost in clouds and more. Icelandic nature at it's finest.
