Fabulous! - The whole trip was awesome. The wee helicopter was amazing. But the views were spectacular. We got off into the snow and were floundering about. Great fun! The hot springs were fab too. The pilot was very knowledgeable, patient and helpful.
A wee point though - it was difficult to find the starting point and I got lost in the airport. Maybe more precise directions to the starting point would be good?

Well worth it. Be sure to communicate clearly to avoid issues. - This was awesome. Highly recommended way to get a sense of Iceland's geography and see some amazing sights. Our pilot was great, and Iceland did its thing and was spectacular.
Some tips:
* Dress warm: Cold up on the glacier especially if the wind is up at all.
* Not "private": You have to pay more for a "private" flight. We knew this and didn't care but the other party booked on the tour thought they had booked a private trip and were a bit miffed.
* Swap seats: This tour lands a couple times, which, in addition to being great, gives you a chance to change up the seating. The two seats in the front have a better view so be upfront and fair about swapping seats for each segment.
* You have a say: Turns out that the "Fire" part of "Fire and Ice" does not mean volcano. I wasn't paying attention when booking and thought it did. In the end, our tour-mates were also more interested in volcanoes/lava than geothermal, so we voted, and the pilot took us wherever we wanted. Not sure what the geothermal area is like, but we really enjoyed the lava fields.

Mind-blowing unforgettable experience - It was my favorite tour in Iceland. You can see so much in a short period of the time, and we were separated from the crowds, I was able to connect to nature during our stops. Our stops were unique and curated. It was personal and private.
You can’t do that during your standard bus tour, you will have a tone of people running around. Sure, you can have a little more serenity to yourself when you renting a car and driving, but won’t get those mind-blowing bird-eye views.
It is all about experience and connection to the divine, I highly recommend this tour to be #1 on your activities list when you come to Iceland.

Glacier Mountain proposal - The most surreal amazing experience! My partner proposed to me at the top of glacier mountain, i was so shocked and the flight crew made it so special with champagne and drone video capturing the whole thing! The most special moment of our lives we will never forget!!

Fire and ice by helicopter - A fantastic experience. The flight, the landings on the glacier and in the volcanic area. Incredibly beautiful. Our pilot flew very gently and told us a lot about the area. The tour is definitely worth the money. We are grateful for this great experience.
