Amazing experience from gear fitting and instruction thru the amazing drive up the mountain in their Super 4x4’s to an amazing time on the glacier. Very professional and safety focused while experiencing every aspect of the park along the way including reindeer spotting and nature talks.
The whole experience was so cool. The tour guide was amazing- he was funny, charismatic, and knowledgeable. Everyone was very nice from the beginning to the end. They had all the equipment you need (bring gloves and sunglasses). It was everyone’s favorite item we did on our trip.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you had such a great experience and that it was the highlight of your trip. Your kind words about your guide mean a lot to us—we'll be sure to pass them along. It's fantastic to know that his humor, enthusiasm, and knowledge helped make your adventure even more memorable.
Had such an incredible experience snowmobiling on top of the glacier. It was a special adventure. Our guide Kari was excellent, relaxed and safe. To travel from sea level to on top of a glacier with thick snow in 35 minutes after an incredible drive was mind-blowing. Such a rush snowmobiling - highlty recommend. Easy booking experience, they had all the gear!
Thank you so much for your nice review! We're delighted to hear that you had such a memorable adventure and enjoyed the incredible journey from sea level to the glacier. We're especially happy to hear your kind words about Kári—we'll be sure to pass them on to him. Thank you for recommending us, and we hope to welcome you back for another Icelandic adventure someday!
Our snowmobiling adventure was one of the highlights of our trip. We had a beautiful day and apparently the first good day on the top of the glacier for this tour. The 40 minute ride up in the super truck was an amazing addition to the adventure. We enjoyed the views and also spotted some reindeer. The snowmobiles were top notch and instructions were clear and made the equipment easy to use. It has been years since my last snowmobiling adventure and it took no time to get back into the swing. The time on the glacier was amazing. The snow was fresh overnight which was perfect. We made a few stops and the views were stunning. The guide was great and provided information on the glacier, the area and life growing up in Iceland. I did learn one thing…. Snowmobiling is a bit different than ATV riding. ATVs you steer, Snowmobiles… you suggest where you want them to go and they may or may not decide to follow your wishes. A fun and exciting day. We enjoyed it immensely and would highly recommended it.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience! We're delighted that your snowmobile adventure was one of the highlights of your trip and that you were lucky enough to enjoy such beautiful conditions on the glacier. It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the Super Jeep ride, the fresh snow, the incredible views, and even spotting reindeer along the way. We're especially pleased that our guide helped make the day even more memorable by sharing stories about the glacier and life in Iceland. And we absolutely loved your comparison between snowmobiles and ATVs—it gave us a good laugh! Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Iceland someday.
It was raining and visibility was near zero. The operator suggested we change our tour time to get greater visibility. We disrupted our entire schedule for the day, missing some amazing stops along the way from Vik, and visibility was still terrible. The operator should have canceled, though they were only interested in collecting their $1100 in fees. Highly disappointed. Would not recommend.
Dear Katie Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry that the weather did not cooperate during your visit and that the visibility did not meet your expectations. We completely understand how disappointing that can be, especially when you have been looking forward to such an experience. Because the weather was poor, we suggested changing the departure time in the hope that conditions would improve. Unfortunately, Icelandic weather can change quickly, but on this occasion it did not. We sincerely regret that this affected your day. We would also like to gently point out that Iceland is located in the North Atlantic, not the Mediterranean. While we always do our very best to provide a memorable experience, the weather is one thing that no tour operator can control. We truly hope that the rest of your holiday in Iceland was filled with sunshine, beautiful scenery, and wonderful memories. Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you safe travels and all the best in your future adventures.
So fun, even in white-out, snowy conditions. My children (12yo, 14yo) considered it a top experience on our Ring Road trip.
Thanks so much for your kind review! We're delighted to hear that, even in white-out conditions, you and your family had such a great time. It's wonderful to know the tour was one of the highlights of your Ring Road trip. We hope to welcome you back to Iceland again one day!
We essentially had a private trip with MIKE on top of the ice field and it was a super fun experience. He was incredibly knowledgable about the area and Iceland in general and we had the chance for a very meaningful conversation. He was an excellent guide, very personable and we got along very well.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear you had such a memorable experience with Mike. He truly enjoys sharing his knowledge of the glacier and Iceland, and we're so pleased that you had the opportunity for such a meaningful conversation. We'll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in the future!

Had a nice and educational morning. The guide took all the time to explain everything calmly and clearly. The ride with the special big-wheel bus up was more challenging than expected. The weather also cooperated enormously.

I was traveling in Iceland with my son, what an amazing experience! They took charge at our arrival, no time wasting it was well planned. We drove up the mountain with a monster truck, we felt safe as the driver was experienced (sorry I don't remember the guide's name!). Same with the snowmobile, the guide was calm, confident and gave us clear instructions. We didn't feel cold, the equipment was perfect. We have snowmobiles at home, we can tell that their machines were new and well maintained. I would definitely recommend to friends and family. Thank you for that memorable day!

We hope that everyone leaves with a good experience and fun memories :) Thank you so much for recommending us :) Hope you had a fantastic time in Iceland Best wishes The Glacier Journey team
