I 100% recommend Icelandic Mountain Guides! I was looking at the brochure and thought if I can do the glacier walk and iceclimbing on one tour, why not do it?!... I'm so glad I tried this out!! The views are amazing on the glacier and would recommend this tour for anyone looking for an adventure/workout/great views, this is for you!
