Do this tour!!! - This was our favorite tour we did in Iceland! It's fast paced, so heads up to anyone looking for more of a leisure paced tour - this is not for you. We stopped at 2 waterfalls before heading to the glacier! Great tour guides, entertaining and knowledgeable! Great pictures and a great adventure!

Amazing experience, friendly tour guides, great customer service - My friends and I really loved this experience! Our tour guides were both very knowledgable about Icelandic history and very entertaining to listen to. This activity was definitely a highlight of our trip! Visiting the Katla ice cave was like entering a different dimension. On the way there, we also paused to get out of the van and take pictures of the beautiful snow-covered mountains, just taking in our surroundings. Great customer service as well. My group of seven had a last-minute request to adjust the date of our experience, and the company was able to accommodate this request. Overall, I cannot recommend this experience enough. It was high-quality and certainly worth the money.

Best day ever!! - Harold with Bus Travel Iceland was amazing. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide. He was knowledgeable and adventurous. He helped make our trip truly memorable. He even added a couple of stops that made the day over the top! Gunner with the Katla cave tour was a great guide through the winter snow land to the cave. He made sure we were safe and had plenty of time at the cave. He even took photos of us. And we were super excited to see an artic fox. I would highly recommend this trip. It was our favorite tour.

Addi & Gunnar were Awesome - I was on the South Coast and Katla Glacier tour. Addi was my tour guide for the driving portion from Reykjavik, the waterfalls, and back. He was very knowledgeable during our excursiones. He knows alot of history of island, and is really enjoyable to be around. The same for Gunnar, who was apart of Gravel Travel for the Katla tour. He was so helpful from the moment I got in the modified Mercedez, to helping me put on my crampers. These gentlemen made me feel safe as a solo traveler, and I hope to bring my husband back for a tour with them in the future.

Amazing, thanks to Monica - Monica was our tour guide for the day. She was very informative about where we were headed throughout the day. I was very entertained by all of the facts and history she knew. Also very funny. She also took us to a famous church by the black sand beach. We even had some spare time to check out the beach despite it not being included on our excursion. Do not forget to layer up..it is very important/cold. Ice cave was more about the journey than the ice cave itself as it’s rapidly melting. Nevertheless, it was still beautiful on the glacier and I loved it so much. Please do not forget to layer up it is very important. Ice cave was more about the journey than the ice cave itself, but it was still beautiful on the glacier and I loved it so much. The young man who took us off roading on the glacier kept us safe & very helpful with safety equipment. Please drink glacier water. Please do this excursion. Thanks again to the our guide Monica!!!
