Amazing

As we walked into the entrance we were amazed with the beauty of the ice. The tour was more than we had hoped. It was absolutely beautiful.
Great tour with Bennie!!

One of the highlights of our trip! Super Jeep was cool, glacier and caves were amazing, and Bennie was charismatic and shared a bunch of interesting facts about Iceland. Would recommend!
Amazing experience

We absolutely loved our tour of the ice caves and our guide Olly- who was fantastic! Would do it again! Thank you Olly and Troll tours for a once in a lifetime experience x
Great unique ice cave experience.

The ice cave tour was fantastic and incredibly unique. Helmet and crampons were provided. Our guide was very informative and gave us good time at each cave site. Incredibly beautiful caves that are always changing, sometimes multiple times a season. Would highly recommend the tour. It is farther from most big towns, advise booking a hotel closer so the drive in the morning to the meet up isn’t far.

It was great. Once in a lifetime event! I am not a good writer. Please let it go if you need my review
Easy. Beautiful. Overall incredible.
Aaron_F, Dec 2022
Really great tour. It helped to know that the guides are really invested in the tours - they are maintaining the caves and access points way after hours. It was very easy - don't need to be in excellent shape. Had a lot of fun. One of the highlights of our time in Iceland.
Must See Ice Cave

Biggie was our tour guide. He was knowledgeable about the glaciers and ice caves. He shared some of the history along the walk and inside the cave. It was a great experience.
Ice Cave Adventure
Carole_F, Apr 2022
This was an awesome experience. Our Guide was like a 'Viking' with the ancestry to prove it and his commentary and care were beyond expectations.
The drive to the start of the walk to the Ice Cave was done in an all terrain vehicle through the glacial bed which of itself was cool.
The walk/hike to the Ice Cave was on uneven ground but not challenging if you are used to doing some hiking.
The cave itself was stunning and aided by the Guides stories and ice pick truely magical.
We would definitely recommend this trip and it is well worth the money.
Well worth it
Vanessa_N, Mar 2022
Awesome time. Highly recommend. Being able to navigate rough terrain is suggested but tour guides do a great job accommodating guests with mobility difficulties. Well worth the investment of time and resources. Our guide was fabulous. Wear waterproof clothing!!!!
Beautiful blue ice caves
Larry_R, Dec 2021
Thor was our guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. The ride from the parking lot to the cave was 15-20 mins. Then we walked about 25 mins to the cave. The cave changes daily. The day we were there a river was flowing through it. Beautiful crystal ice with blue color from the sun shining through.
