The time for our tour was changed to... - <p>The time for our tour was changed to later in the afternoon than we had booked, which meant it had to be shortened a bit because we had a dinner engagement already planned. However, our guide was very good and covered the high points and history of the town in the time available. And since it ended up being a private tour, we were able to go fairly quickly. I do think it would be a good idea to add the "Ice Museum" to the tour, as most people who have been there think it adds a lot to understanding the glacial history of the area.</p>
