We had the best time with Rich and Kish on our canyoning tour! They first taught us how to safely rappel and use our gear before heading out to the beautiful, hidden canyon to splash around and have fun for the day. Everything was thought through to the last detail and we felt safe but adventurous on the tour, thanks to the professionalism of our guides. Even at the end of the season, we did not get too cold thanks to the gear that we were provided! 11/10, I would recommend Ice Guardians for all adventurous spirits who want a small-group adventure with the most knowleadgable guides in the country!

Literally AMAZING. Don’t be worried about being cold. I’m ALWAYS cold canyoning and today with them was the exception.
Kidding.

We had the absolute pleasure of taking two tours with Ice Guardians in Iceland—ice climbing and canyoning—and both experiences were nothing short of spectacular! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 From the moment we met our guides, we knew we were in the hands of true professionals. On the glacier, our guide Rich stood out immediately—not only for his skill and confidence but also because everyone else on the ice seemed to know and respect him. We later learned he had trained many of the other guides out there! That level of expertise gave us complete peace of mind as we tackled thrilling activities like rappelling, climbing, and lowering ourselves into deep blue crevasses. It was pure adventure from start to finish, and every moment felt safe, exciting, and unforgettable. Our canyoning trip was equally amazing. The day was a perfect mix of adrenaline and Icelandic beauty—from rappelling down cliffs and jumping into crystal-clear pools to sliding under waterfalls and even picking fresh blueberries along the way. It was the kind of experience that fills your camera roll AND your soul. Ice Guardians delivers top-tier service, unmatched expertise, and a genuine passion for adventure. They made us feel like friends, not just customers, and their knowledge of the area and the activities was second to none. If you’re looking for once-in-a-lifetime experiences in Iceland, look no further—these guys are the best of the best! We’ll be talking about these tours for years to come!
Ice Guardians for the win!

Kish and Rich exceeded our expectations for canyoning! We had the best time…rapelling into canyons, jumping off cliffs, sliding down waterfalls and zip lining! We really appreciated them sharing their knowledge of the geology and flora in the region. We truly had the time of our lives! Great guys, a lot of fun, very professional! I only wish we had gone ice climbing with them as well!
Unforgettable Canyoning Adventure in Vatnajökull National Park

Epic canyoning adventure with Ice Guardians and one of the top 3 highlights of our Iceland trip. Rich helped us book the experience weeks in advance and made sure it fit our tight schedule. On the day of, Rich and Kish were incredible guides, professional, funny, and supportive. We met at Haukafell Campground, suited up, and hiked in along a sheep trail with wild berries and arctic thyme. Most of us had no rappelling experience, but the practice session made us all feel comfortable. The canyon descent was unforgettable with rappels, slides, cliff jumps, and the “washing machine” finale down a roaring waterfall. It was thrilling but felt safe the entire time. If you’re in the area and looking for a truly unique adventure, do not miss this. We’ll be talking about it forever. Thank you, Ice Guardians!
Do NOT miss out on this adventure!!

Richard and Kish were truly fantastic guides. They were warm, easy to talk to, and shared so many fun and fascinating stories about Iceland — like how the whole community works together to round up sheep, or where to find the best wild blueberries. But being friendly isn't all that matters — canyoning can be a bit intimidating if you’ve never done it before. Luckily, these two were incredibly professional. The gear was high quality, and they adapted everything based on the weather and each person's comfort level. You could tell they’ve done this a hundred times — the route was smooth, well-organized, and super fun. We started by learning the basics in a safe area, and then moved on to the real adventure — rappelling down waterfalls, cliff jumping, ziplining — all the good stuff. During descents, they always worked as a team: one guiding from the top, the other assisting from below. You always felt safe and supported. This ended up being the highlight of our entire Iceland trip. If you’re looking for something thrilling, personal, and unforgettable. Don’t miss this experience. We’d recommend it to anyone.
An absolute must!

Our half day canyoning trip with Kish and Richard was exhilarating! What a fantastic way to see hidden parts of Iceland where no big tours go! We repelled down waterfalls, jumped into glacier pools and zip lined down another waterfall! Pure fun! One off my bucket list! An absolute must! These guys are fantastic! ES
First time canyoning, lots of fun!

It was my first time canyoning, ice guardians did a great job! They helped me get through a “why did I let my friends sign me up for this?” moment. They made everything safe and fun.
