Amazing guide and incredible experience! - Pepe was a really awesome guide, he was funny, knowledgeable and told many great stories, he also made me feel really comfortable on the glacier. This glacier walk was amazing - one of the best experiences I have ever done! It’s an incredible experience walking on a glacier that is ever changing and may never be there one day, highly recommend!!

Had an amazing time!! - Walking on the glacier was a new and amazing experience we’ll never forget. Our tour guide, Stephanie was very knowledgeable and engaging and made sure we were safe at all times. Since we were a small group, we had a wonderful opportunity to see an ice cave up close, which would probably be unlikely if we were in a large group. I would definitely recommend this glacier hike with Between Continents.

Glacier walk, super fun - I went with Paulina from Between Continents for a glacier hike on Solheimajokill glacier in July last year. We met at the parking lot and got prepped for the hike. The walk to the glacier is 20 minutes. We learnt how to put the crampons on,got iceaxes,helmets and harnesses and went for an hour and a half glacier walk. we had plenty of stops to take pictures and learned about the glacier too. at some point Paulina set a rope and we could have a look into one of the holes on the glacier. Super fun
