This was our favorite tour (on par with our Blue Lagoon experience
Einar our tour guide and glacier guide was great, made everyone comfortable and dispelled any fears with his confidence and knowledge making this a thrilling experience.
He took us to restaurant, where my girlfriend thoroughly enjoyed the Turnip soup, she is a Veggie and thought she would be surviving on Yoghurt for our whole 9 day trip….Do not fear veggie’s there is a lot of options
We also visited 2 waterfalls on the way home.
As we getting off the bus Einar made a suggestion to make sure to take all our belongings, it might be a problem. I thought “well of course” who wouldn’t and later found I had that I had left my phone on said bus 🤣🤣
We communicated with the company through the evening and it was found. We were leaving for Akureyi the next day, but the company arranged for it to be returned to us on Saturday morning on Einars day off. Best customer service ever !!!!
Thankyou Glacier Hikes and Waterfalls
Best
Yvonne and Ian
And somebody was getting married at the black sand beach, so hoping they had the best day ever like us

The tour was excellent overall and I have to say the Glacier Hike was the highlight of our entire trip. We also learned a lot about geology from our tour guide - he was the best! The Black Sand Beach and all the waterfalls just combined to give us our best day in Iceland.

An absolutely wonderful tour where we had an excellent hike on the Glacier first up as our guide Einar picked the weather perfectly and we had completely dry hike then got some hail and rain as we got back to car. Then Black Sand Beach and lunch followed by 2 excellent waterfalls.
Excellent day and 100% recommend!
Thanks Einar

This is an excellent day trip with our guide Thomas being top notch. He was super well informed, and made sure we were not only safe on the glaciers but also got the best experience. The waterfalls stops were excellent as well, and the van had excellent wifi.

Towards the end of the trip, Thomas gave us some recommendations on how we can see northern lights and it ended up being super helpful. Following his advice we saw incredible northern lights that night! We would not have seen any without Thomas’ expert advice. Fantastic trip with a fantastic guide!
