The nature never disappoints, so do the guides! - The guide and the tour are amazing! We experienced a heavy snow during the tour but the guide (also the driver), David, had great driving skills to keep us safe and send us to the destination. Really appreciate his kind service and detailed explanation along the tour. Moreover, Bayda (sorry if the spelling is wrong), a guide from Switzerland who led us in the glacier hike certainly made my day! He’s experienced and patient with a lot of “dad” jokes. So fun and exciting to walk the glacier with him! Btw he got good photo taking skills. Ask him to take pictures!!

Unforgettable Hike!! - Bjorn was a great guide! Very knowledgeable and an excellent driver! He prioritized everyone’s safety throughout the entire trip, and checked in with the group after the glacier hike since it was raining the entire time and he could see we were wet from head to toe! This was such an unforgettable experience in Iceland that we would likely recommend!!
