Hella awesome! - If you’re visiting Iceland, I highly recommend doing the Katla Ice Cave tour. It’s a truly unique natural wonder and something you won’t forget. The super jeep ride across the rugged landscape to reach the cave was an adventure in itself and really added to the experience. It was beautiful with all the snow. Our guide was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the glacier and the area. They explained how the cave forms under the glacier and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the tour.

Very fun experience. - The tour and Ice Cave was great. The Operators were fun but also professional. I'm glad I didn't decide to hire a car myself in these winter conditions. Big thanks to our guide Max.

Fantastic once in a lifetime trip - Fantastic day trip from Reykjavik! Our bus driver Egill picked us up directly in front of our hotel in a very comfortable sprinter van. He provided very informative and funny commentary during the ride to Vik. We stopped at a supermarket for snacks and a bathroom break. In vik we met up with Martin who drove us in a small group in a super jeep to the Katla ice caves! What an experience! Once in a lifetime experience. Martin was funny, informative and fun!! Highly recommend!! One of our favorite tours in Iceland

Caves are a must see IMO - Long day but wonderful! The ice caves were really incredible. Was about a 20 minute walk (not difficult) up to the cave. Took this tour because it included the caves- and it didn’t disappoint.

Amazing one day trip from Reykjavík in January 2026 - We had an amazing South Coast and Katla cave tour with Troll.is company. Our tour guide Bjorn was extremely kind and informative throughout the entire tour. He drove excellently, which is not easy in Iceland, and we felt completely safe the whole time. We learned a lot about Iceland, including local legends and about its stunning natural wonders. However, it’s important to note that if you choose this tour in winter, you should expect a slightly tight schedule due to the limited daylight hours — which is completely understandable. So it was not a problem at all. The Katla ice cave tour was absolutely incredible! Gabriele, who led the cave tour, was very friendly, helpful, and an excellent guide. We gained a lot of new geological knowledge thanks to him. Many thanks to both guides! Overall, my fiancé and I had a perfect time, and it was a wonderful experience exploring the South Coast and the Katla ice cave with Troll.is.

From Reykjavik: Katla Ice Cave and South Coast Day Tour with Bramanir! - We did a tour with Bramanir and it was absolutely amazing!!!! He’s super fun and always focused on giving us the best experience — from great tips on places to visit to stopping so we could take photos of the northern lights, the most beautiful we’ve ever seen! 100% recommended! The waterfalls felt like a dream, and the ice-cave adventure was unforgettable (the jeep ride over the bumpy road to get there was really funny)

⭐ 1 Star – Very Disorganized Tour and Poor Communication - Unfortunately this was the worst tour experience we’ve had while traveling. We understand Icelandic weather can change quickly and safety must come first. The issue was the lack of communication and organization throughout the day. Nearly 1.5 hours was lost due to repeated stops, phone calls with the office, and sitting pulled over on the side of the road with no explanation. Because of these delays, we were given only about 25 minutes to order food, see the stop, and use the facilities. With long lines, several of us couldn’t use the restroom and didn’t eat until almost 2pm. At one point the guide even mentioned that “maybe a more experienced driver will take you further,” which did not inspire confidence. We were picked up by different drivers on the side of the road but later placed back in the original van with the same guide. Later we were brought to the entrance of Reynisfjara but refused the short remaining drive to the famous basalt columns — the main reason many of us booked the tour — despite other tour vehicles continuing. We were told that “the beach is ruined anyway.” Adding to the confusion, during similar conditions on the drive back the guide had no issue passing other vehicles at high speeds in the dark. The entire experience felt chaotic and poorly managed rather than professionally guided. We also shared more detailed feedback directly with the company but never received a response. We hope they review how situations like this are handled in the future. The only positive part of the day was Ricardo, who was excellent and the reason we are giving this at least one star.
