Loved this experience! - Had an amazing time on this tour, we you walk into the reception area you are greeted by an amazing team who assist you in getting fitted with all the equipment needed to continue safely. The drive has amazing views up to the glacier and the guys give you some cool fun facts! Driving the snow mobiles, our guide Omar was an absolute angel! Answered all our questions on how to work it and kept track of every single member of our party and even when we flipped he quickly assisted and made light of the situation and was very patient and kind.
100% recommend this tour

The best excursion yet - The drive was a bit long but it was definitely worth it. Our guide, Ryan kept everyone engaged with his storytelling and was very knowledgeable on the history of the country & kept us entertained with good jokes. The glacier tour was one to remember, 10s across the board for the whole team for getting us to and from the glacier safe & sound!
