Iliana was a great guide! - Iliana did a wonderful job making everyone comfortable with the equipment and the water! While definitely tourist adventure, totally glad I did it. The photos do not do the visibility justice. It’s beautiful. Oh. And giving customers free GoPro photos via Google Drive is super appreciated.

Amazing. Do it…!! - A bucket list experience. We’ve done a fair bit of driving around the world but this experience is on another level. Unbelievably clear water and to swim between the walls of the fissure was mind blowing. Our guide Nail was fab, she made the experience fun and made the whole group feel at ease with the challenge of being in 2degC water!! Amazing. Do it….

Snorkelling adventure - Bus pickup was over an hour late for collection. However, Will and Jenny were friendly and helpful whilst we were snorkelling. We would recommend this activity7

The experience you absolutely must to do in your entire life - We booked through the platform “guide to island”: it’s an excellent service. Artic adventures are organised very well with all the equipment you need for this wonderful experience. The guide Will taught us very well what to do in every situation, especially the tricks that you need for the snorkelling: it seems simple but it isn’t, and helped us to wear the equipment. The instructions on website are written very well because are precious to do this experience in safety and warm, of course. I really appreciated the quality/price ratio too.

Fabulous experience, sensational guide! - Had a fantastic experience with Francesca as our guide! The experience itself was out of this world - having not snorkelled very much before, we were a little apprehensive about doing it in 2°C water but it was sensational! Weirdly not that cold with the dry suit and layers on. Yes my lips went numb but it really didn’t feel that bad! Our guide Francesca was amazing - a really joyful person, she was professional and reassuring whilst also being really good fun and enthusiastic. I’m not the most confident in open water or with dry suit/snorkel kit but loved it, helped by my friends and Francesca. We would most definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a new experience that pushes comfort zones with a huge sense of reward at the end.

With all your senses and just fantastic - It was an incredible experience with all your senses. Hernan, our guide, was fantastic. Very attentive and super friendly. It was like a trip with a friend. I was worried about the tight suit, but he could take away any fear. I've been able to enjoy it from start to finish.

Strongly recommend!!! - Unique experience. It was very cold, snowing outside, and the water wad almost freezing but thanks to the drysuit you don’t feel the cold so much. Our guide, Jampi, was very knowledgeable and took great care of us, which makes a big difference to this type of experience.

Great day in the water! - We had a great time on this trip. We were worried about the cold, but the water temperature is about the same in February as is during the summer months. The company took good care of us. Guillaume was a great guide, patient, kind, a good sense of humor and he kept everyone safe. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend this trip and I am 71 years and had an absolute blast. I mean, where else can you do this??

Cold but beautiful! - So, I have to say that this was not on my bucket list, but it was on the rest of the group's bucket list, so I went along with it. Despite my hesitation, I have to say that Valentina was wonderful and reassuring and helped me really enjoy myself on the tour (which once you are in the water is easier than you think!)! I don't think I could have done it without her!
