Went with my brother and we BOTH loved it. The glacier tunnel is literally chilly (bring gloves, I forgot mine, big mistake). Our guide, Olafur, cracked jokes the whole time so even the bumpy monster-truck ride was a laugh. Some bits felt a tad rushed, but honestly, standing inside that ICE cave…surreal. Coulda used more info about how they made it, but still—pretty EPIC.

So, the glacier ride is cool and all, but man, it’s a looong day. Pick up was kinda late and we missed proper daylight at a couple stops. The horses were cuties though. Not enough time at waterfall, imo. Guide was nice but seemed new? Meh, 3 stars.

Absolutely loved it!! My boyfriend and I did this as our splurge day and it was SO worth it. The snow truck is wild (giant wheels, felt like Jurassic Park), and the glacier tunnel is something I’ll never forget. Our guide, Maria, sang a little Icelandic song in the ice chapel, gave me GOOSEBUMPS. Couldn’t stop taking photos. Only tip—dress WARM and wear good boots. Would go again in a heartbeat!

Took my teen son and his friend. The horses were adorable (and shorter than I thought!), and the guide let us pet them. Glacier tunnel was the highlight, though the monster truck ride up is suuuper bumpy. Not for folks who get carsick. Staff was friendly, coffee at the base is okay-ish (not great).

Weather was wild—wind and sleet. But the guides handled it like pros, kept everyone laughing. The tunnel is like nothing else, blue walls, almost glowing. Felt safe whole time, even on the big truck. Saw a waterfall on the way back, too. Long day but def worth it.
