Julian and our private tour were incredible! Truly the most incredible experience! Julian was our guide and photographer for the all day glacier hike, diamond beach, and lagoon tour. He truly made the experience for us! His knowledge, photography skills and overall demeanor were unmatched! In addition he made us feel extremely safe during the glacier hike. We did the entire ring road during our stay in Iceland and went on several tours. Although they were all great, this one was by far our favorite. Book it, you won’t regret it!

Julien gave us the best once in a lifetime adventure! Couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide than Julien! We were so lucky to be the only 2 people on the glacier hike, diamond beach, and glacier lagoon because we got his full attention! He’s not only incredibly knowledgeable, but he made the whole day really comfortable and honestly the best guided tour I’ve gone on. I’ve been to a lot of countries and done many tours and I can definitely say it was my fav! Jaw dropping scenery at every turn, great pictures, and a ton of laughs as well. Cannot miss this experience

A unique experience which you should not skip I've booked the early bird photo tour and it was definitely worth it. We had the complete ice cave for our 6 person group. Krysztof was a great guide. He made amazing photos from us, and all my questions were answered. Thank you.

Ask for Krzysztof! Wonderful tour! We had originally booked the zip line but they called me a few days prior to let me know the zip line would not be operating this week due to something about the national park. We changed the tour to the early bird ice cave tour instead and we were so happy with it. The ice cave was neat and beautiful, even though it’s nearing the end of the season when it can often be dirty and not as nice. Krzysztof was AMAZING! He was so upbeat and excited to show us the cave, and he was very helpful when it came to posing/choosing photo spots. We could not have had a better experience with another guide. We appreciate him for going above and beyond. Thanks for making it a great day, Krzysztof!

Great cave and glacier hike with small group sizes! Our guide, Julien, was excellent. After a short 4x4 ride to the starting spot, he took us along the glacier to a bowl that we climbed into. The scenery was amazing. We went into a few caves. Had a great time!

Nice ice cave excursion. Great experience with this company with a very professional team that give you a general information about the cave and glaciers formation. Safety inside the cave was great.

Amazing views, great experience Julian was a great guide, it wasn't the trip we originally booked as the weather meant the zipline wasn't running but really good alternative. Only didn't give 5 stars as several time changes we had to work around

Très agréable expérience de promenade sur glacier et grotte de glace. Bien organisée, petit groupe de 7 personnes, guide sécurisante. Rythme de marche pas trop rapide, bien adapté aux différents participants. Les haltes photos bien reparties tout au long de l'excursion, pas trop longues. Bref, à recommander vivement !

Expérience magique ! Les yeux ont du mal à accommoder tellement ça semble irréel. Krzysztof a su prendre son temps pour fournir un maximum d’explication et répondre aux questions avec intérêt. Merci beaucoup !

It was one of the best views I had ever seen in my life. Krzysztof – our guide and photographer – was very kind, cheerful, and always gave me good answers when I asked questions. These photos were taken by me (the ones taken by Krzysztof will be much better – I’m still waiting for them).

A surreal and wondrous experience on and in the glacier! We did the 12-5pm tour on 27/04/2025. There was 4 of us on the tour, plus our guide, Claudia, who was a true expert! We managed to avoid the crowds, saw everything we wanted to, and even hiked further than the typical tour! Claudia was extremely knowledgeable, engaging and interesting! 10:10!! Highly recommend.
