Skaftafell National Park
The tour departs from our Skaftafell Base Camp, right on the Skaftafell campsite next to the visitor center. 20 minutes prior to departure, you will meet your experienced glacier guide, who will gear the group up with crampons, ice axes and harnesses. When everyone is ready, you will take our glacier bus up to the glacier for an amazing adventure.
We head to the glacier on our Glacier Bus. After a few minute's drive from our Skaftafell Base Camp, there is a short hike up to the roots of the glacier. After a short introduction on how to use the glacier gear, we step onto the glacier and into a frozen wonderland. The guide will lead the group through deep crevasses and majestic ice ridges. With about 2 hours on the glacier, we have plenty of time to take pictures and make memories. After the wonderful adventure, we head back to our Skaftafell Base Camp.

Best guide and phenomenal climbing experience

5.00Our Skaftafell glacier walk and ice climbing was the highlight of our trip to Iceland. We were blessed with good weather but the most incredible part of our trip was our guide Ágúst. We had no prior ice climbing experience and Ágúst made it both a challenging and approachable experience. An excellent blend of humor, education, and encouragement, we would happily go on any expedition led by Ágúst. The duration of the adventure was also excellent ~4.5 hours. We were tired but fulfilled by the end. 10/10, Ágúst was 12/10.
Amazing Intro to Ice Climbing

5.00Our guide, Agust, was fantastic. He gave good instructions on safety & the process for ice climbing. Our tour was called Skaftafell Glacier Hike and Ice Climbing. We were able to do a couple climbs at an easier location soon after getting on the glacier. The glacier was beautiful. After we enjoyed a bit of walking around, we found a more challenging ice climb location. Some of our group did that climb twice. I highly recommend this tour if you are new to ice climbing and want a fun experience.

5.00An extremely professional guide who took into account the requirements of a quite diverse group of participants with great commitment and knowledge. Despite the poor weather, the trip to the glacier was an interesting experience with lots of interesting and useful information. The group of participants was small, and the tour itself was significantly longer than promised. I highly recommend it.
An unforgettable day on the glacier

5.00Mark is a great guide. He led us this sunny day, caringly and carefully up the glacier. He taught us how to move and survive on a glacier; about the formation of glaciers in general and specifically about this geltser. He led us past spectacular ice fissures in all shades of blue, glacial crevices and rivers. Overall a great guide and experience! Fee provided a pleasant round trip in the 4x4 bus.

5.00We are a young married couple from Singapore and went on the glacier adventure a bit worried we will struggle due to unfamiliarity. However our guide Brook was very patient in explaining everything about the landscape, explaining the equipment and giving plenty time to take pictures and soak in the environment. 11/10 experience in Iceland no question.
