BEHIND THE SCENES

what are our guests saying?

The whole journey into the ice caves and the Falljökull glacier was awesome. Ryan is an excellent guide and very funny. Can’t wait to back to Iceland and do some new journeys and learn more about those places.

Ryan always knows how to pick a good ice cave for photography and he’ll get you at the spot at the right time. I got some of my favorite images from Iceland with him and his professionalism has made all the tours I took with him memorable. Thanks for being such an incredible guide Ryan.

Cath Simard

Ryan is a great guy who we enjoyed working with! Even with a special request (a slightly disabled woman) he found us a beautiful accessible ice cave that delighted everyone’s eyes! And all in safety and with a smile, I recommend!
