Mihai was an amazing guide—funny, personable, and made the tour feel truly special with his close, personalized approach. He made us feel at ease while sharing his deep knowledge. We can’t wait to return for another adventure with him!

Unforgettable Ice Cave Experience with a Personal Touch

Published on Jan, 2025

Thank you for an exceptional experience. Our visit to the ice cave with a small group was truly memorable. Our guide, Christina, provided insightful information about the cave, and we especially appreciated the intimate, almost family-like atmosphere created by the small group size. Thank you again for this unique and unforgettable experience.

Perfect amount of experience / learning

Fantastic small group adventure with a great guide

Published on Jan, 2025

This was a great tour into a Crystal ice cave that had several chambers. We particularly chose to go with Glacier Adventures as they are a local company who run small group tours - our group was 10 people - which we prefer to the bigger groups we saw. We really enjoyed the tour - the ice caves were spectacular and the views on the glacier afterwards were wonderful. Our guide, Guillermo, was fantastic - very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. He made the tour feel very personal and we learnt a lot about the cave and the glacier. It was easy enough to walk through the caves - we had to duck a few times to pass between chambers, so felt like we'd had a real caving adventure!

Excellent tour with Filip!

Published on Jan, 2025

Wow! What an amazing tour. This was by the far highlight of our trip to Iceland - our guide Filip was so informative and showed us all the nooks and crannies of the cave. We were able to spend 75 minutes in the cave and learned so much about it. I highly recommend this tour and company!
