Good morning,
All too often, letters and e-mails are written and sent to voice
one displeasure with goods and services. This is certainly not the case.
I had the great fortune to book the Fire and Ice Tour on April 1, 2010
which was scheduled for Thursday, June 24, 2010. My tour guide, Atli,
picked me up as prescribed and we headed off to see the Hengill
Geothermal area. Since we were scheduled to pick up three others for the
afternoon portion, the morning was just Atli and I. Atli was so well
versed in the area and he conveyed that wisdom upon me. The 2 1/2 hours
seemed to fly by.
Then, came the afternoonportion - the walk on the glacier
Myrdalsjokull. Needless to say that after looking at what lay ahead, I
was a bit apprehensive. Atli was able to teach us the correct way to put
on crampons, walk up and down the glacier, and use the ice axe. Yes, we
were all somewhat timid at first, but Atli's knowledge and patience
made this experience one that I will never forget.
Thnak you for two things: offering this chance to do things which
most people will never have the pleasure and privilege in doing and
second, having a man such as Atli to take people to enjoy the beauty and
magnificence in Iceland. He is a true professional and one who is
personable and extremely knowledgeable.
Thank you again for the experience and rest assured, I will
definitely promote Mountain Guides to all.
Best regards,
Arthur Zucker
