Wells it is a very nice place, you can hike and also climb. With Friends is much better charing, also with good guides along the way.

It was a bit confusing with my booking due to the miscommunication between the operator posting this tour and the operator actually providing the tour (they were different!). But I managed to sort it out by messaging and a phone call.
Despite the drama in the beginning, it was fun! They provide you with everything you need and teach you how to "climb" the ice. For a person spending the most time at sea level and not used to rock climbing, this was very challenging for me. But I had a blast! I will come back to have more!
Ice climbing is at 4900 meters above the sea level, so take it easy to avoid altitude sickness.
