Very good experience! The guide had clear explanations. We visited a “mill” then 2 ice cellars.(..) The 4×4 journey with the crossing of several fords and the crampon ride to access the cellars are a plus! A background of music in the 4×4 could add to the “adventure” atmosphere of this expedition! 🙂
Skaftafell: Ice Cave Tour and Glacier Hike

The whole day was outstanding, from the 0800 pick up to the 1830 drop off. Our minibus driver, Gudrun, was great.The cave was a highlight, but overall just standing on a glacier, enjoying some glacier ice water, and seeing the view from up there was all well worth it. (..)
