The tour departs from our Skaftafell Base Camp, right on the Skaftafell campsite next to the visitor center. 20 minutes prior to departure, you will meet your experienced glacier guide, who will gear the group up with crampons, ice axes and harnesses. When everyone is ready, you will take our glacier bus up to the glacier for an amazing adventure.
We head to the glacier on our Glacier Bus. After a few minute's drive from our Skaftafell Base Camp, there is a short hike up to the roots of the glacier.

Brook Woodman took us on an absolutely incredible tour that was completely tailored to just the two of us, making the experience feel truly special. He taught us how to ice climb and guided us up the glacier, sharing fascinating knowledge about the landscape, glaciers, and everything around us along the way. Brook was genuinely lovely, extremely helpful, and made us feel confident and safe the whole time. To top it off, he even brought his drone and captured some amazing footage, which made an already unforgettable adventure even more epic. Could not recommend more, definitely the highlight of our trip, do not miss out on this adventure. Thank you Brook, you legend! Wawawiwa

This is long overdue but during our trip we had a wonderful experience thanks to our knowledgeable guide Óskar Magnús Hardarsson. We would highly recommend this tour as this would be impossible without a certified guide.

A lot of fun to do! First a walk there, about 1.5 hours on the glacier itself. There were four of us and guide Paz; she showed and told a lot. Highly recommended!!

We had an amazing time on the Glacier hike and ice cave tour with Icelandic Mountain Guides. The tour was perfectly designed to accommodate anyone in moderately good physical shape. We were on the ice for about 3 hours which is longer than I expected. Some of that time was spent waiting for other tour groups to pass but it was a welcomed rest and the glacier didn’t feel crowded at all. Our tour guide, August, really made the experience for us. You could tell he LOVES what he does, he was so funny and made us feel super safe the entire time. 10/10 time no notes!

It was a fantastic experience. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. A wonderful icing on the cake at the end of our study trip. Especially under the guidance of August Atlason: humor, safety, a wealth of knowledge, and good English speaking.

We had the best time up on the glacier with Agúst. Very friendly, very knowledgeable, and he took mighty good pictures! It was truly awesome to experience this Icelandic scenery on our last day, the sun made it even more special. Thanks Agúst for putting up with us, come to Holland anytime you want!

This was such a cool experience to do with my fellow contiki travellers! Our guides were super friendly and very knowledgeable. I think the price is very reasonable considering Iceland prices. I wish we could have hiked for longer but we only had the short hike opportunity with a busy itinerary. Would 100% do this again.

Going regularly with them in the context of a student tour. All guides are skillful, friendly and can adapt to local conditions easily. They operate safely, know their surroundings and the workings of a glacier, and are great company to be around. For a safe adventure use them!
