Sólheimajökull Glacier Hike – Adventure in a Small GroupZ6817JKrosieg, Sep 2026
Magical from start to finish!
I couldn't have asked for a better experience hiking the Laugavegur Trail with Gunnar Hall leading our pack. Gunni the Guide led with humor, safety, and superior knowledge. We were laughing the whole way through! Gunnar had clear expertise in the terrain and so much great knowledge on Iceland, the trial and history that he shared throughout. It was a truly magical experience that I would recommend to anyone!

Excellent off-road & ice cave tour!
The guide knew his stuff and we had an excellent experience. The drive on the beach at the end was great!

Totally worth it
The pickup was a little messy as one of the drivers was slightly late.
Our tour guide explained a lot of the landscape we drove through and also explained that the cave we were going to was pretty small. Still gave us all the time we wanted.
Overall, worth the money to have the experience!

Ice Cave Tour from VíkJames_S, Sep 2026
We had a great time...
We had a great time driving through and exploring an amazing, other-worldly landscape. Honestly, the cave was cool, but it’s small and you are done with it quickly. The real draw was walking to the cave and just experiencing it all.

Ice Cave Tour from VíkF5718DNbarbarab, Sep 2026
Great Tour!
Our tour guide was the best! I couldn’t remember his name but originally from Czech. He gave historical info about glaciers and Katla Ice Cave. He also gave specific northern asked. Would recommend this tour to anyone wanting to see inside an ice cave.

Black Sand Beach Horse Riding Tour from VikKaren_E, Sep 2026
Unique activity and once in a lifetime experience
This was a highlight of our trip and even though I have had limited exposure to horses and I’m in my late 50’s I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and felt that the instructions and guides were amazing

Black Sand Beach Horse Riding Tour from Vikgowris522, Aug 2026
Fantastic trip to the land of ice and fire!
It was an amazing and memorable trip to Iceland. The day trip to the diamond beach and glacier with the boat ride is definitely a must do! Our guide was Lina , she was our guide for the entire trip including airport transfers. She is very prompt in communication so it was very easy to connect with her on WhatsApp before we even landed in Reykjavik. She was very knowledgeable and narrated the significance and importance of each and every single site we visited. She was also very flexible and took us to some additional attractions as she drove us to the attractions

Great trip, wonderful guide!
We had a great time on the tour. Our guide Jagoda shared lots of info on Iceland, including thoughts about food and snacks. She also made adjustments to planned stops, so that we could see certain sites at the best times and made some bonus stops along the way to take in the scenery. I liked that she seemed to enjoyed seeing all the sites herself, even though it was probably the hundredth time she has been there. The transportation was roomy enough, with 10 people in a vehicle with around 16 seats in the back, although the empty seats were mostly stacked with bags.The Glacier hike and boat tour on the Glacier Lagoon were definitely the highlights. On the Glacier hike, I really like how she made sure everyone was properly equipped and also using the equipment properly.Regarding pickup, given the big window of 30-40 min, I'd recommend letting people know in advance how many stops there will be that morning and where they are in the order. Even better, it would be great if text updates could be given (e.g., pickup one done, on my way to number 2). We were the last ones to be picked up, so we were wondering at the end whether we were forgotten.

Sólheimajökull Ice Climbing and Glacier WalkH6135JYsarahs, Aug 2026
Experience of a lifetime
Beaty was a fabulous guide! She was incredibly informative and so friendly. We had a blast getting to see the glacier and experiencing it first-hand, all the while getting to learn all about its history. Would recommend to anyone visiting Iceland!

3 Hours Katla Ice Cave Tour/Meet in Víkelusivechic, Jul 2026
Great tour with Fricky...but 100+ ppl at the caves
Our guide Fricky was great...friendly, warm, very experienced...really made our trip! The truck ride was about 45 minutes there, of which 15 minutes on the highway and the rest on gravel road towards the glacier. We went to 2 caves (one small and one medium); each experience is different as the glacier is always changing. Once you get there, there are a LOT of tours and people all waiting to get in and out of the caves and you have to "queue". I would say easily over 100 people and 10 tour groups all there at the same time. Our group only had 9 people, but other tours had more like 15-20 people who would take a long time on the paths. I would rate the trip itself more like a 3 or 4 star due to the sheer volume of people, but since we had SouthCoast adventures and Fricky our awesome guide...I am giving this 5 stars because of him. Thanks Fricky!

Awesome tour on Sólheimajökull
We had a great experience with Michal on the Sólheimajökull glacier tour! We chose a private tour because my youngest is 7 and was not old enough to join up with the larger tours.It was a challenging weather day, but he kept us safe and led a wonderful tour! We loved the experience. It was one of the best things we did on our trip to Iceland!
