Amazing Trip - Just had a fantastic experience with our guide, Oihane. She's warm, friendly and extremely knowledgeable:) Love her driving skills!!! Special thanks to Malek too, our hiking guide. He is an extremely experienced guide. He knows where we should tread carefully and where we can relax a bit - always watching out for our safety and ensuring everyone is okay :D :D :D

This was an amazing tour! - Your day starts off by your driver picking you up at your stop, which went perfectly. Our driver Sveinbjorn was excellent. Right from the start he makes you feel welcome, nice calm icleandic music in the background and talking about Iceland. Since everything is based on a schedule during the day, Sveinbjorn made sure that we had plenty of time at each stop all the while keeping us on schedule. When you get to the Glacier Hike he introduces you to your guide and makes sure you have all your equipment. They wait for you on their bus while you are doing the tours so there is no need to worry that they won't be there when you are done. This is a full day so it is best to pack a lunch and some snacks, you can also buy your lunch at the restaurant they stop at but the food in Reykjavik can be expensive. You also have a few coffee and bathroom stops along the way. This tour gets you back around 8pm so it is a full day and well worth it.

Thank you Bjorn and Tröll Expeditions from your Aussie friends Will, Henry and Henry - My friends and I from Australia had the most incredible day imaginable on the 4th of July 2024. Hosted by the entertaining, hilarious and kind Bjorn, we travelled through the Icelandic South Coast learning lots about Icelandic culture whilst also soaking in the beautiful sights. The Seljalandsfoss and Skógafoss waterfalls coupled with the Reynisfjara black sand beach and the Sólheimajökull glacier hike was absolutely fantastic! We would recommend this trip to anyone! Thank you again Bjorn for making this an amazing day we will remember for the rest of our lives. 🇮🇸🇦🇺

Perfect Day of Adventure in Iceland - We got very lucky with amazing weather, sunny, not too windy and beautiful views and attractions. The two waterfalls were amazing, and the first had a shop and coffee spot, the lunch stop at the black sand beach was delicious. The the glacier hike was unparalleled. We learned a lot, had a friendly guide and had an exciting day and we're back in town for dinner.

What a day! - What a day! Even though it was slightly overcast we had such a great day. The guide Slavi was great, friendly and knowledgeable - he shared some really interesting information and stories about Iceland but also his own life too, which really helped the past times. The scenery was incredible, Slavi recommended a secondary waterfall as well, which actually made for nicer pictures (and less people!). The glacier hike has been such a great fun trip so far, was great fun and some fantastic photos taken, including the team photo - thanks all for a great day out!

Just do it! - That was one of the highlights of my trip to Iceland. We had the opportunity to visit the most popular sights in south-west Iceland, including the waterfalls and the black sand beach. However, the most unique part was th glacier hike in Sólheimajökull. I would totally recommend. The tour guides were excellent and always eager to provide information.
