Wonderful - The tour was amazing, such a great experience. Our guide, Fernanda explained a lot about the glacier, the ice and the area. She also recommended places some must sees and places to visit before the end of our trip. Besides this she really knows how to take the most awesome pictures to remember this experience.

A day to remember - We did the combo tour of kayaking on the Sólheimajökull glacier lagoon and the hiking on the glacier! It was definitely an experience to remember, the scenery was breathtaking and having the chance to be there was amazing! Our guide for the kayak was Fernanda, so cheerful, experienced and thoughtful, we had so much fun with her! Our hiking guide was Sofia, also very experienced and kind! We are so thankful for both of them, they made our experience even better! I definitely recommend both of the tours!
