4.00We ended up missing this trip but the company was nice enough to fit us in on their other tour that excludes the snowmobile. Therefore, we can’t comment on the snowmobile part. However, for the rest this is a must. All sight seeing stops are amazing. The only recommendation is that you manage your time wisely at each stop. I would start at the part where the least people are exploring and work my way back to the busy areas.
Fun activities with golden circle

5.00It was so fun, worth money and cool experiences ever. You don’t have to drive to golden circle, they let you off car enough time to view the golden circle. The snowmobiling is highlight of the trip. So fun, I would do it again.
Amazing experience

5.00This excursion was a fabulous adventure! It was well organized and managed. Our driver, Benedict, was very pleasant and knowledgeable. The snowmobile guide, Gabriel was awesome. Snowsuit is provided but a word of advice- do not underestimate the cold! Wear all the layers! It’s very windy on the glacier.
Amazing experience
