Hi there, I'm a fully licensed outdoor guide based in Iceland. For the past seven years, I've had the pleasure of guiding people in various outdoor activities such as scuba diving, snowmobiling, glacier hiking, and trekking. My experience has given me the skills and knowledge necessary to ensure that each of my clients has a memorable time exploring Iceland's stunning landscape. Apart from the thrilling outdoor activities, I also guide easier driving sightseeing family-friendly tours. These tours are perfect for families with young children or those who want to enjoy Iceland's scenic beauty without undertaking strenuous activities. During my free time, I love to explore the beauty of Iceland by 4x4, on foot or on skis. I also have a passion for photography, both above and underwater. Capturing the essence of Iceland's unique landscape is something I truly enjoy and I always carry my camera gear with me, ready to capture those unforgettable moments. I have an insatiable appetite for adventure and have travelled to various exciting places such as Asia, the Alps, Patagonia and the Himalayas. Whether it's challenging terrain, cultural experiences or breathtaking views, I always find a way to satisfy my craving for exploration.

Overview of your Reykjavik tour

Begin your day with a prompt 8:00 AM departure from Reykjavik, embarking on a scenic drive to Hvolsvollur for a brief stop to refresh with light snacks and a bathroom break before continuing your journey. From there, we will drive to the remarkable Solheimajokull Glacier, where you’ll be equipped with premium gear for your ice cave experience. A guided 45-minute walk across the glacier will bring you to the entrance of the ice cave, where you will have 30 minutes to explore the pristine, otherworldly environment of ice formations and ethereal blue hues. This unique opportunity to witness nature’s frozen artistry is one not to be missed. Following your time inside the cave, we’ll make the 45-minute return walk back to the vehicle, and begin the journey back to Reykjavik. If time permits, enjoy a brief stop to admire the dramatic beauty of Skogafoss and Seljalandsfoss waterfalls, two of Iceland’s most iconic natural wonders, before returning to Reykjavik.
