Trip of a Lifetime - We had the adventure of a lifetime with Sleipnir Walking on a glacier has been on my “life list” since I was a kid. So this was the perfect tour. Our guide and driver were informative, professional, and fun. They made this adventure even more wonderful than we expected. Riding on the monster truck through rivers and up the glacier on 4 feet of new snow had us all thrilled. The views were spectacular and unparalleled. We were fortunate to have excellent weather: clear skies. The truck stopped at many points allowing everyone to disembark and enjoy the pristine snow and photograph the views. It was amusing to watch the handful of young children play in the snow. Many of the adults joined,too. We were able to enter an ice cave wearing the provided crampons. Very cool!! Our guide, Erla, loves her job and sharing her knowledge of a lifetime on the glacier. Overall we highly recommend this company and tour. And absolutely we would do this trip again.

This tour is a MUST! - What a fantastic experience it was to climb a glacier in a monster truck! Riding in that bus felt like we were on a ship gliding in the sky. Our guide Karen had facts and folklore that accompanied the surrounding mountains along the way, and even sang us a chilling Icelandic lullaby that gave me goosebumps. Helgi is an exceptionally smooth driver. He even took us off-roading a bit. When we got to the ice cave I had almost forgotten that the cave was the point of the tour! 😋 We got to go inside the beautiful ice cave which was filled with water only last week. I learned so much about the power of nature, and can’t wait to do more traveling around this country. Thank you Sleipnir for an unforgettable experience!

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.
