Incredible winter nature on display - The monster truck made the trip so comfortable. Glacier is fantastic and ice cave had ash and rock suspended in the dark ice. Tour guide provided interesting information and took great care of us.

Absolutely brilliant! - The absolute best day out from start to finish. Freya was our guide and she was fantastic, friendly, welcoming and had a wonderful way of keeping the excitement going. We were lucky to have deep snow and a new glacier cave to go in. Honestly cannot recommend it enough, just book it!

An unforgettable “bus” ride in a red monster to the glacier - The sight of the unique Tatra Phoenix is gigantic. The trip from Gullfoss in cloudy weather up to the glacier through deep snow: unique and with an absolutely safe feeling. What was striking: despite the enormous engine power being used to its full potential, there was never even the slightest hint of a diesel cloud coming out of the exhaust. The driver and tour guide were absolutely confident and when we got to the natural ice cave, we were given ice claws for our shoes and an introduction, and they didn't promise too much. Narrow entrance, a short walk down a few steps carved into the ice and then you see your reflection in the ice above. Insane. Finally, the sun came out and there was enough time to take in the view of the glacier and the surrounding mountains. A successful tour at a really reasonable price👌

Recommended excursion - A fantastic tour. Going on the monster truck is amazing, and the round trip is very entertaining because the guide explains many things about the volcano, the glacier, and local stories. The ice cave is very cool, in a very beautiful environment. recommendable

Glacier Tour in the Red Truck - Absolutely amazing tour . My sons loved going up in this gigantic red truck . We drove through a white out. Great tour and commentary . Clean and just one of those Iceland experiences that you wouldn’t want to miss . My kids called it the red monster truck . It drove through piles of snow . The ice cave was awesome . Don’t think twice . Book it . They were very communicative when I checked about weather updates and a cancelled tour . The tours in Iceland are all weather dependent . I’m so happy that they took this tour out when we were there

Magic - Wonderful. I knew I was going to be dazzled but there. Our guide was a marvel even if I couldn't understand his name, let's call him, Vik! The super jeep ride was fun and nice with him, the discovery of the cave is an unforgettable experience also thanks to the guide.

Lesson learned - Bought the tour prepaid in 2023 to give my fiancée a dream come true to see an ice cave, there was never opportunity to go to the ice cave that winter due to many weather reasons and after many attempts I gave up and took the tour as summerversion with no icecave and 10% refund in November 2024. That included hot beverage and kleina, short drive upon the glacier edge, poor attempt on sliding on a plastic circular slide down barely slope and we did no golfing as was described as option but we drank water out of a creek. Not much view due to whiteout but we saw bits of blue glacier when the other tourists were not chopping at it with an iceax or disrespectfully kicking down the glacier sand cone formation, it takes long time to form one in nature. The guide was not a guide but someone from the office. But the driver was professional. I could have taken my fiancée out for romantic 3 course dinner twice for that amount. A lesson learned. Should have taken full refund and go out for dinner instead.
