Favorite part of the trip! - This was an excellent adventure. Gorgeous scenery, the ice cave was good, not natural but man-made. But it was still super cool to see. My husband and I took our 4 boys. Ages 7-17 and they all absolutely loved it.

Snowmobile remains amazing!!! - The snowmobile was amazing. I would have liked it to be a little faster. The journey there was quite an experience. I don't like the cave. But a nice guide and I would climb on a scooter like that again!!

No fuss, all fun! - No fuss, friendly staff, transported and kitted up then straight on the snowmobiles. There was no long winded safety brief, just to the point and let's go! The heated handle bar grips were an unexpected bonus. The ice cave was basic but interesting at the same time. We had our 10 year old with us and would highly recommend this trip.

Good time - The drive to the glacier was very bumpy and took quite a bit of time. Once we were there we geared up and the snow gear (included) kept us super warm! They gave snowmobile instructions outdoors where it was cold and very breezy so it was hard to hear. Wish they did some of that indoors because we missed some very important details We had to follow the group when snowmobiling for safety reasons so we weren’t free to do our own thing, but still fun. It was a littler short though, and a little pricey for what we got. The ice cave was closed which was a bummer but they gave us a refund on that portion.

Exhilarating! - Staff was incredibly helpful and impressive! Snowmobiling was such an incredible experience; it made up for the ice cave. The ice cave is man-made and not exactly what I was expecting, but I still 100% recommend this tour!

Missed the cave - Did not get to see the ice cave. Was disappointing but understandable. Did not seem that our time was extended since we didn’t get to do the ice cave. On the contrary we actually felt more rushed for time than anything. The ride itself and time for pictures was fun. The guides were helpful and nice

Underwhelming ice-cave and short snow mobile drive - Unfortunately, the tour wasn't really what we expected and I wouldn't recommend it if you are expecting a natural ice cave. As many people have written before, it takes quite long to go to the basecamp (70-80min) one trip and the tour as such is quite short. In the tour description we got it wasn't clear that the ice cave is artifical / man-made - so that was underwhelming. However, our tour started and finished on time and the staff was really friendly and helpful. Due to the size of the group, everything took quite long, the overall Snowmobile driving experience was therefore quite short. We were lucky as our group to the ice cave was small and more agile. Overall, I think it is overpriced for what is offered.

Nightmare in Iceland - We booked the tour with the timing 2pm-6pm. We did not depart the pick up area until 2:45pm and returned at 7:30pm! There are more than 50 people in a group! Everything takes forever. You snowmobile in a slow line and then go in an ice cave that is not worth seeing at all. DO NOT RECOMMEND!
