Blue Ice Discovery – Randonnée guidée sur glacier au départ de Skaftafell

This was seriously one of the best tours I have ever been on! Our guide Przemyslav was funny, knowledgeable, and truly made the hike along the glacier a unique experience. It was breathtaking and I learned so much along the way. I would highly recommend this guide and this tour to anyone visiting Iceland!

Our family loved this tour, mainly because we enjoyed our guide, Przemyslav! He made the trek out on the glacier interesting, informative, and added humor that made it fun! It was one of my favorite adventures in Iceland!

I HAD THE BEST TIME WITH PRZEMYSLAV AS OUR LEADER. He made the glacier hike funny and informative. I felt safe because he knew exactly what to do and helped everyone no matter their skill level. Couldn’t have had a better experience. Thank you Pzemyslav!

We went with Przemyslav and he made the experience amazing!! We had so much fun with him and it was truly a once in a lifetime experience thanks to Przemyslav.

Weather forecast was for rain and it didn’t look promising but the reality was that despite a little rain it was an amazing experience. Guide was great and didn’t feel crowded or rushed with adequate time on the glacier for a beginners tour. Couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you

Przemyslav was a fantastic guide! He gave us great information about glaciers I never would've known about. They took pictures of our large group and made us laugh many times! I would recommend going on this tour.

This was a fantastic tour. The company was wonderfully helpful and responsive as we prepared for our trip and the glacier itself was stunning, but I must say that it was really our guide, Przemyslav, who made this experience truly memorable. He was genuinely enthusiastic and gregarious, was very knowledgeable about glaciation and local geology, interwove tales of Icelandic lore and mythology, and gave us experiences that we’ll remember forever. The group included people of diverse ages and athletic abilities and all of us felt safe, challenged and engaged. This is a real testament to his mountaineering skills. Bottom line, this was one of the great highlights of our Iceland trip. Thanks Icelandia, and thanks Prezemyslav!

BEWARE - if you arrive even 5 minutes late for this tour, they will leave without you and not refund your money! We were delayed due to a bridge closing. We called multiple times to let them know that we would arrive 6-10 minutes late for a 1:30 pm tour. They informed us that we should have arrived 20 minutes early (which they only state in the fine print of your ticket), and that they could not hold the tour. We arrived at 1:41 and they had already left! I am still fighting to get my money back for this expensive tour, not to mention the hours we drove to get to Skaftafell National Park. We ended up going with a competitor who was wonderful and accommodating, but these are expensive excursions, and I was definitely not counting on paying twice for the same trip. Extremely frustrating and disappointing, to say the least!!

Awesome tour guide! Awesome experience!!!!!

Apple maps did not recognize the Skaftafell Base Camp, and instead took us to the wrong place. We eventually found it by putting "Icelandic Mountain Guides" into Google Maps. I see now there are GPS coordinates on the website, but the directions and coordinates weren't included in the emails sent to us. As a result of getting lost, we arrived around the start of our tour instead of 30 minutes early as we had intended. The guides were very brusque about it and rushed us through getting the equipment, which left us wondering if we would be safe doing the hike. It ended up being ok in terms of safety, but the hike itself was very strenuous and not as picturesque as we had hoped. My husband was under the impression that it was a family-friendly, relatively easy hike, but it definitely isn't appropriate for kids below 12 years of age, and it definitely wasn't easy. My husband and I are in our 50s and in decent shape, but we felt like were holding up the group and did not feel very supported by the guide during the hike.
