This is a super jeep adventure with the unforgettable experience of walking through caves made from ice on the Katla glacier.
To get to the glacier we use modified jeeps with huge tyres. This is part of the adventure. When we arrive at the base of the glacier in the middle of the Icelandic wilderness, we will explore ice caves, and hike around a little on the glacier. After that we drive to Hjorleifshofdi, a deserted black sand beach.
We only focus on small groups, with a more personal service. We spend as much time as is possible on the glacier giving you the chance to really take in this once in a lifetime opportunity.
Our guides know these areas very well and have been working in the area for many years.
All of our guides have experience and are trained in glacial exploration and are first aid certified.

James is such an amazing guide! He made the experience personal and made sure that we saw the caves at the best time possible (with no one else around)! He is very knowledgeable about not only the ice caves but about all of Iceland and this tour was definitely a highlight of our trip.
