5.00Great for beginner hiker. My tour guide is great, she gave us great information about how different the ice and glacier was formed, also very nice and take her time to slow the speed when she saw some of us struggling. Great experience for beginner.

5.00Great day. Friendly guides, on time, great hike! Well worth the time. Our group varied in ages from 18-60. Need to have some physical fitness as the hike up and back down is slightly steep, but fun!

5.00This was a unique experience that was a highlight of our trip. The 4x4 transport to the base of the glacier enabled us to maximize our time there. The hike was easy for us because we are in shape, but it would be difficult for people who are not physically fit or who have bad knees or hips.
great experience on one of Iceland's largest glaciers

3.00Average. Very easy hike, very flat. Actual time on glacier is one hour (as it states) but there was a lot of stopping and talking, so it felt super short. Guide was very plesant and knowledgeable though. Very suited if you have some cardio/walking challanges, but too small/easy if you want even tiny bit of sweat 😅
We had an excellent time...

5.00We had an excellent time on this tour and our guide Kish was very knowledgeable. It was both of our first times walking on a glacier but felt very comfortable thanks to the guide.
Excellent trip

5.00We really enjoyed our guide Hanka, she was very informative and was able to answer any questions we had. We would definitely recommend booking with Local Guide!
The 5* is for the quality of tour operator not the scenery

5.00Our guide was very helpful, helped us put on the equpment, looked for the easiest path and even made it smoother for us. The scenery is not exceptional. The glacier is more beautiful looking at from a distance than by walking on it.
Great tour, small group- Disco was amazing!

5.00I had booked an ice cave tour with them, but unfortunately it was quite sunny when we were visiting and most ice caves were not viable. The company managed to find a tiny ice cave and combine it with a glacier walk to make it a good experience. We started the tour with some equipment and a short drive to the glacier. We were then taught to wear and walk in our crampons. Our guide Disco was lovely- he gave us a lot of information and fun facts about the glaciers, and natural processes. He also told us about great camera angles and we got lovely pictures. We were a total of 6 people plus Disco- and the small group experience was wonderful. I highly recommend them!
