5.00Brilliant experience, so glad we did it. Per, our guide was funny and knowledgable and read the group so well, to ensure everyone enjoyed it. Reasonable level of fitness / mobility needed, but nothing too strenuous. The three hours went so quickly!

5.00Absolutely fantastic. Such a unique experience. The guide was great, informative and really added to the experience. The glacier itself was such an incredible experience. The group was small and while there were others in the glacier we were alone and just able to enjoy the experience without it feeling touristy.
