This tour was absolutely perfect from start to finish. Adam, our guide, made the entire hike safe and fun, and our group was chatting and laughing like old friends the whole way.
The pace was perfect, with periodic stops to take pictures and learn about the glacier. The comfort level of everyone in the group was taken into consideration and we all felt safe the entire time.
The glacier itself is incredible, and walking across it was a once in a lifetime experience that I’ll never forget. The sheer beauty and magnitude of the ancient ice is definitely worth experiencing!

Our tour guide could not have been better. Our group of 4 had all different glacier walking abilities and Eric/Ric was amazing for all of us. My older son needs no help and could keep up with any guide, his girlfriend is of average ability and this was a work out for her. My younger son is a heart transplant recepient and did fine, Towards the end he needed to stop a few times. And I am a 63 year old non active mom and Eric was amazing moving me to the front of the line, so he could be close at hand if I needed help. It was an amazing experience, and totally gave me bragging rights. Thank you Eric!!

The glacier hike was fantastic, offering stunning views of the glacier sights. Our guide, Philip, was highly experienced and managed the pace expertly, ensuring that everyone could stay together as a group and have ample time to take in the breathtaking surroundings. His guidance made the hike enjoyable for everyone, and we were able to fully appreciate the natural beauty of the glacier without feeling rushed. It was a memorable adventure with perfect timing to capture the beauty of the landscape. Highly recommended.

The hike was amazing! We had a great time and got to see amazing views. Our guide was friendly and kept us safe on a very windy day.

Adam and Portuguese ’John’ / (the unicorn) were fantastic! Made the experience fun, enjoyable, inclusive. Both were passion about the glacier and you could tell they loved it. It felt safe and all equipment was provided. A slightly bigger group than I was expecting for a small group tour but this was fine with the 2 guides. Taking us right into the glacier for pictures was just a wonderful experience and hiking up onto it was stunning. 100% recommend.

This was a fantastic excursion! Our guide, Malek, was knowledgeable, friendly, and patient. He was great with our kids, and kept everyone safe. I am a nervous person, but I never felt concerned for our safety on this tour. Our guide taught us how to use our crampons, and the walk was not too difficult for us. Fantastic, educational adventure for families with teens and teens! Thank you for a lifelong memory!

Our guide was Joao and he was amazing! He did a great job explaining how glaciers work and why the landscape looks the way it does. He answered questions, was patient with me (I’m a slow walker uphill) and was so enthusiastic about the glacier. He really wanted us to understand their beauty and the science behind them.
I especially like how he had us take a minute to ourselves on the glacier just to take it all in. It was incredible and I’m so grateful he was our guide. I felt absolutely safe - he made sure to explain WHY to step in certain spots and not step in others, which was interesting and reassuring.

I recently went on a glacier tour in Iceland, and it was absolutely unforgettable. Our guide, Jake, was fantastic—super knowledgeable, engaging, and full of adventurous energy. He shared fascinating details about the glacier’s history and made sure we explored the most stunning spots safely.
The glacier itself was breathtaking, highly recommend this tour—and especially Jake as your guide!
