The tour guide was awesome!! She gave such great info and made the keep ride to the glacier very informative and fun! I def def recommend layering up for this activity. We went in early March and it was still very windy. A balaclava is a must! The tour itself was BEAUTIFUL. A must have experience in Iceland above everything else! And you get GORGEOUS pics!

Bjorn was an amazing guide. She was entertaining, ensured everyone felt safe and was very informative. The ice cave itself was smaller than the photos, however we got to explore a lot more than just that (and got some awesome photos!). Definitely recommend!

I highly recommend visiting the ice caves of Vatnajokull Glacier to anyone who stays in Iceland during the winter. The tour wasn't very demanding so you don't need to be in a good shape :) There was no crowd so caves visiting was comfortable and without any rush. Our guide (I can't remeber his name) was professional, funny and very patient and he let us expierience a little bit of jeep off-road.
