Great Tour, from start to finish - Fantastic tour. A+ to our tour guide who was friendly, knowledgeable and entertaining. We had ideal weather conditions and our guide stopped so we could take pictures of the surrounding landscape. Would highly recommend this trip.

Katla Ice Cave Tour - The landscape looks out of this world. It's like going back in time. The tour guide, David, was excellent telling us about the geography and local lore tales

Totally worth it! - We took the Katla 3hr cave tour and it was really good. We had Gunner as our guide and he shared some great stories and provided a well informed tour. The tour was a hands on experience. Incredible scenery outside of cave. Totally worth doing.

Katlan Glacier, in and out of it - Mega Tour where we found Nemo in Rouge One and in a glacier were on the moon and the remains of a Wales with round trip in a MEGA Jeep

A FANTASTIC EXCURSION AND VERY INTERESTING - It was an amazing experience. Walking through a landscape that seemed lunar and listening to the explanations of our guide made us enjoy the experience a lot. We visited the ice cave and it took us to another one they had been visiting recently so we could see how the glaciers change. Along the way he was telling us stories of the volcanoes and gave us a lot of very interesting information.

Very good experience. - The experience is very cool, somewhat complicated access through wooden boards. The guide's fine. They should take Spanish speaking routes. But it's worth it.

Ice Cave Experience - The tour guide was lovely and did a great job. However, this excursion was not priced appropriately. First, when booking it said this would be a group with a max of 6 people, there were 12 of us. At over $200 a person, I expected we would actually be hiking through an ice cave, not just walking six feet into one and turning around. Very disappointed overall.

Not worth seeing and very expensive! - We booked the 3 hour tour by description and wanted to visit the famous Katla Ice Caves. In fact, the two caves shown were disappointing. The first cave was narrow throughout (1 person side by side) max 30 m long, the second cave I wouldn't even call that. Positively noteworthy is our guide David - he explained a lot on the transfer trip to the cave and made a detour to the beach. For us, the tour is not worth seeing - and that at a price of 183€ per person.
