Short but exciting ride...

Short but exciting ride to the top of the glacier and back after landing for some pictures -- exactly as described. Had views of the ice underneath and the mountain. Would definitely recommend for those looking to get up to the top without delay.
It was awesome and well...

It was awesome and well worth every penny. The only issue was we were one booking away from being cancelled on a tight travel schedule. We happened to be the last flight that day as cloud cover was coming in fast. we would have been extremely disappointed if this happened (not sure if this was in the small print?). We understand that the safety of everyone comes first but were a little surprised at this.
Breathtaking

The whole process, from booking to landing, was smooth and well-organized. It was definitely a highlight of our trip, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and unforgettable adventure!
