All of the above is computed from Glacier and Volcano Expeditions's own 1 product records, not from a questionnaire. Fleet size and typical group sizes are the figures a comparison table usually shows; Bókun does not carry them, so we would be guessing, and we would rather leave a gap than fill it in.

★★★★★★★★★★5.0
We went on a glacier kayaking tour with Guðný and Rowan on May 17th. And we had so much fun! They both are amazing guides. They told us about glaciers, about Island and it history and people. Kayaks itself were easy to use. Even that we have 0-1 experience.
We can highly recommend booking through Glacier and Volcano Tours. You’ll support small Iceland businesses and get the best value for your money.

Rowan and Guðný were awesome! Our family did the Kayak and Glacier Hike trip and had a blast. Both guides were quick to adapt plans to our interests and abilities and Rowan is also a great photographer. We were even able to sneak in a little bit of ice climbing for me Andy 2 boys in the middle of our glacier hike. I would highly recommend booking any guide trip with them!

THIS is who you need to use if you plan on doing an expedition in Iceland. My husband and I did the kayak-glacier hike-ice climb and it was a once in a life time experience. Our guide Rowan was amazing. He had a great personality and great knowledge about the glaciers. Booking and communication were easy. 10 out of 10 for sure!

I went on a glacier kayaking and hiking tour with Rowan and Guðný on 5/8 and had an amazing time. They were both amazing guides and made sure we had the best time. The trip felt both very exciting yet still very safe. The views were incredible, and even though we had to cut our kayaking time short due to high winds, Rowan and Guðný made sure we still had some amazing experiences but teaching us a little impromptu ice climbing! Highly recommend booking through Glacier and Volcano Tours and supporting small Iceland businesses! You won’t be disappointed
