  • “This was an amazing tour! One of the highlights of our trip. The caves were closed but that meant we got more time to hike closer to the glacier. Gorgeous views, a knowledgeable guide, and an overall very unique experience. Could not experience a glacier in the same way without a tour like this. Definitely recommend this as a must book!!”
