What To Expect

Come with us to live the thrilling experience of hiking on an Icelandic Glacier.

Your guide will meet you on the parking lot and take care of gearing you up with glacier equipment: Helmet, harness, iceAxe and crampons.

After a short walk, he will tell you everything about glaciers, and how to walk safely on them.

Doing this as a private tour guarantees you an intimate experience. Not being part of a bigger group allows your guide to take you to more remote places on the glacier when always walking at your very own rhythm.

This is the experience of a lifetime, that will leave you with your best memory in Iceland.
