Awesome experience on the Glacier - We spent ages researching what to do in Iceland and for a family we decided this was the best glacier trip for us. We were not disappointed. The trip started in the car park at Gullfoss waterfall and we boarded the huge monster truck. This was very comfortable. There were about 40 people on our trip. We drove for about 45 minutes up on to the Glacier. Our tour guide Erkla ( I think) gave us lots of info and stories enroute. There was plenty to look at. When we arrived we were all given crampons to put on over our hiking shoes and then we went into the natural ice cave. This was awesome! They had put some lights inside so you could see. We had time to take photos and play in the snow before we headed back on the monster truck. Enroute we stopped at another amazing viewpoint to be able to take more photos and enjoy the views. This was a really great trip and one we will remember for a long time. Highly recommend it. Our boys 11 and 9 yrs really loved it. Don't forget your sunglasses, it is very bright on the glacier!

Great glacier experience - Great experience, guide was lovely and told us many stories. The ice cave itself wasn’t as stunning as i expected I am guessing because of the warm winter this year, however it is still definitely worth it! The views were stunning

Fun guides and beautiful view - We were a bit unlucky with visibility as it was cloudy but it did not stop us from being amazed by the scenery. Total whiteness has its charms. The ice cave was impressive. The guides are fun, very careful with safety and they make sure to entertain you with history and geography facts and folklore stories. They give explanations and you can ask them questions about the glacier, the ice cave and much more. The truck was comfy, safe and heated, perfect trip. Many cool photo spots.

Beautiful views and knowledgeable hosts & guides! - The views are amazing and the tour guides and drivers are incredibly friendly! My family and I booked the tour last minute when we saw the red monster truck-looking van and this was definitely a lucky addition to our trip! The company is family run and the tour guides are knowledgeable, telling stories of Icelandic folklore. The second stop on the glacier tour also offers hot chocolate and sledding!

Trip of a Lifetime - We had the adventure of a lifetime with Sleipnir Walking on a glacier has been on my “life list” since I was a kid. So this was the perfect tour. Our guide and driver were informative, professional, and fun. They made this adventure even more wonderful than we expected. Riding on the monster truck through rivers and up the glacier on 4 feet of new snow had us all thrilled. The views were spectacular and unparalleled. We were fortunate to have excellent weather: clear skies. The truck stopped at many points allowing everyone to disembark and enjoy the pristine snow and photograph the views. It was amusing to watch the handful of young children play in the snow. Many of the adults joined,too. We were able to enter an ice cave wearing the provided crampons. Very cool!! Our guide, Erla, loves her job and sharing her knowledge of a lifetime on the glacier. Overall we highly recommend this company and tour. And absolutely we would do this trip again.
