Review the Vatnajökull ice cave tour from Jökulsárlón, with practical details on price, transport, crowds, safety, clothing, and value.
“The cave is breathtaking, there’s no doubt about that. (Well, based on what the guy said, they change and it also depends on which cave you visit). Our guide was also nice and knowledgeable! BUT, it’s really overcrowded with people. There were at least 10 groups inside (approx 15 people per group) and when we left there were 3 groups waiting to go inside. Cave visit itself is pretty short (45min.) based on description saying 3-3.5h trip you’re done in 2 hours. I’m not saying it’s not worth it as some people were amazed and loved it. But for us, who wanted a bit of space and not a huge…”

“We had an amazing time and experience with Boggi and his well equipped and secured off-road truck. The natural ice cave was spectacular. We visited it at lunch time which was on purpose as there were no other groups. Magnificent colours and walking and photo shooting under the ice of the glacier. It’s a must do thing with this small customer focused company.”

Review of Glacier Trips’ 5-hour ice cave and glacier walk near Jökulsárlón, with small groups, crampons, blue ice, pricing, and practical tips.
“My family of five (two adults, three teenagers) loved our glacier tour and ice cave hike with Stefen. This is the excursion that I did the most research for on our trip to Iceland. All of the options can feel overwhelming - but I chose it specifically because it was a small group tour and it was meet-on-location. After seeing the massive group tours lined up all around us, I knew I'd picked the perfect option for our family. There were only 9 of us and we were able to really enjoy and experience the glacier and cave closely without dealing with a huge crowd. Stefen is very knowledgeable, funny,…”

“This was our favorite experience in Iceland! Glacier + hiking is not something that sounded fun to me, but my husband really wanted to see the ice caves. 6 hours was the perfect amount of time for this tour, 3 hours would’ve felt too rushed. The ice caves were gorgeous! I don’t know where else in the world you could see something like them so 100% you should add this to your list of things to do in Iceland. Martin was such a fun guide and was always giving us information on the caves. We got to see 2 caves and a crevasse. Just be aware that this was somewhat…”
