We had a great time with Kari exploring the glacier. It was just us on the tour with him, so we got to explore around in some other areas which was super cool. Definitely would recommend this to anyone visiting Iceland, was the highlight of our trip. Thanks again Kari!

We had a fantastic guide in Magdalena. She was very considerate of everyone’s needs and paced the tour just right. Experiencing the glacier and ice cave first hand is just awe inspiring and an absolute must when visiting Iceland.
Super Erlebnis
