What an adventure! Went as a family (my teens grumbled at first but loved it). The guides made everyone feel safe, even my wife who hates heights. The ice is so blue it doesn’t look real. Bring your own snacks, there’s nothing to buy. Would recommend this to anyone who likes a challenge.

Did Big Ice tour with my partner and wow, just…WOW. The blue colors in the glacier are unreal, like some kind of magic filter. Our guide Matias was hilarious and made sure we didn’t slip (much). Heads up: crampons take a sec to get used to, but by the end I felt like a pro. Bring snacks—my energy bar pretty much saved me halfway through. Totally worth the sore legs the next day.

Never thought I’d walk on a glacier! The guides are super patient, and the scenery is next level. Bring a powerbank if you take lots of pics.
