What are people saying about Skaftafell

Great experience! 3h is...

Great experience! 3h is perfect for elderly like my parents! We saw several blue caves and the hiking was very easy. Our tour guide has a beard braid, he is very knowledgeable and funny

Jenny_S, Apr 2026

Ice Cave Tour - Very unique!

Signed up for a 9:30am tour. Got an email 2 days before asking if we could change to 11:15am or offering a refund. We made it work. Meeting parking area was easy to find —it took a little bit to figure out which exact van to go to. 13 in our group. They provided crampons and helmet. The 25min ride out was bumpy but the local guide driver was skilled. It was a short windy walk over the glacier to the caves. We visited 6 caves of varying size, shape and depth of color. Beautiful and unique.

Kenneth_V, Mar 2026

Great experience. Worth...

Great experience. Worth it! There was 10 of us total. The tour was a great experience. They provided us with helmets and crampons. We got to try a piece of the ice which the tour guide said was 1000yrs old. Would definitely recommend.
