Magical experience with breathtaking photos--highly recommend! - Sincere thanks to Ice Pic Journeys and our guide Marcos for a fantastic private Summer Glacier and Ice Cave Tour a couple of Fridays ago! Absolutely unbelievable experience with breathtaking photos. This tour exceeded all expectations, and we'd recommend to anyone who wants a unique, up close and personal view of the glacier with photos you'll treasure forever. We also appreciate the team's willingness to offer transport to/from Port Djupivogur so we could participate within a defined time schedule. This was above and beyond service, and we can't thank Marcos and the Ice Pic team enough!

Glacier hike - Suzanne did a great job showing us around the glacier and ice cave and taking pictures. She was very knowledgeable and they gave us a good idea of the lifecycle that is relevant to this process. Also stunning views and environment.

I like it very much, recommend it to everyone - It's a great activity. We like it very much. The glacier is really beautiful and the blue light of the ice cave is also indescribably beautiful. In addition to walking around and taking a look, there are also professional photographers to take photos for us. I highly recommend everyone to sign up for this. Activity

Ice cave and glacier Zipline - This was an amazing once in a lifetime experience. I'm so glad our guide Adam talked me into the Zipline when I was about to back out. He was very knowledgeable and entertaining to talk to on the walks between places.

Remarkable experience! - We did the ice cave tour and zipline with our amazing guide Adam! I highly recommend booking this tour for anyone coming to iceland and looking for some adventure on the ice! The views were breathtaking and Adam went above and beyond to make sure each person in the group is well taken care of and made comfortable. He took great effort in capturing each moments with every individual in the group. Overall it was great experience!

Ice Cave with beautiful blue ice, photos and fantastic guide! - Excellent private guided trip across the glacier to an ice cave off the beaten path. We were the only ones there! Mike, our guide and co-owner, is very safety conscious and an excellent photographer! This was our first time in an ice cave and the blue ice was simply incredible! This has definitely been our favorite thing in Iceland!!

Highly recommended!! - Had an excellent time on this tour. We did another glacier hike and this was by far the best excursion. They communicated well, the pickup was seamless, the tour guide was friendly, and the tour was informative. We were able to zipline on the glacier and visit the ice cave. The tour guide ensured everyone's safety and it was an easy enough hike that anyone should be able to accomplish this. Not only was the guide patient but he is a photographer, and the photo package we received was timely and well edited. I would highly recommend this for anyone visiting Iceland! Although a little pricier than other activities, the photo package and small group offered a personalized approach, so it's well worth the cost!

Fantastic Tour with Ice Pic in August - We took a private glacier walk and ice cave tour with Ice Pic Journeys last week and it was fantastic. Our guide/photographer, Rich, was fantastic and Ryan, who coordinated our trip, was super accommodating throughout the process. The cave was melting a bit because it is August and it has been quite warm in Iceland so we couldn't go too far into the cave. But the experience inside was phenomenal. Nothing like filling your water bottle up with fresh glacier water for the hike back to the 4x4 from inside a glistening ice cave with a "river" running through it. Can't wait to get the pictures back from Ice Pic and cannot wait to book another adventure (maybe ice climbing! or chasing the Northern Lights) with them when we return to Iceland in the winter. The country is magical and Ice Pic takes your experience to another level.

Incredible company, wild adventures! - Ice Pic Journeys was a fantastic experience! From the ease of booking, to the expertise of the guide, to the photos we received, everything was exceptional. Our guide Adam was super knowledgeable about Iceland and was kind, funny, and also worked with my boyfriend to plan an epic proposal! The zipline he set up also looked totally safe and secure, and of course he tested it himself before letting us go haha. And then the ice cave was beautiful. We ended up getting to drink fresh glacier water too! We ended up being the only 2 on the adventure and it truly felt like a personal experience. I can’t recommend this company enough. They made our time in Iceland unforgettable!
