A Definite Must Stop!
My husband and I went on this tour & in our opinion, it's a definite must! We saw the flags on our way to Vik & knew that we wanted to stop by & check it out on our way back to Reykjavik. Unfortunately, I do not remember the tour guide 's name, but she was the great grand daughter of the man who purchased the land. The history of these specific man made caves was incredibly engaging especially since this was our guide 's heritage, so it was very personal. It was so fascinating to learn more about Iceland & honestly step into history. One of the caves is thought to be an original church, it was incredible! We wondered why an Iceland historical society isn't trying to preserve and study these caves more, especially with the ancient writing apparent on the walls. It's definitely worth a stop. We saw on our trip a lava cave, an ice cave, and now man made caves. All worth it!

It was 100% worth the money. It was not easy, but it was a fun and rewarding experience. I recommend renting the shoes. I brought ankle hiking boots, but the toes were soft and when you climb the ice you will be kicking against it. Their shoes are more hard around the toes so it offers more protection. It was only $13 USD. Definitely carb up before and bring a sandwich with you to eat while you're waiting your turn to climb. It gets cold while you're waiting around and the wind can get strong enough to knock you over, so bring wind proof layers. Pay attention to the guides, it can be dangerous up there with the winds and possibility of slipping down the ice if you don't follow instructions.

Closeup with a Glacier
We were right there a foot away from the glacier! I have seen glaciers multiple times but have never been this close. Being in the lagoon with the icebergs around us is a cherished experience. Dorrie, our guide, was knowledgeable, informative, and patient with our inquisitiveness. A great guide enhances the adventure and he did just that!

It is a highly challenging, adrenaline-filled experience.
I didn't think I’d make it, but it is a wonderful hike with beautiful scenery.
I recommend wearing ankle-high boots; otherwise, you can rent them for an extra fee for greater comfort and safety.

Don’t skip this experience!
This experience was great! Alex was our guide - he was personable and we really appreciated his knowledge. It was more than just a cave tour. The bus made a few stops for incredible scenery pics. The meeting point was easy to find with plenty of parking and a restroom close by if needed.

Loved this experience! We...
Loved this experience! We had so much fun on this excursion and experience the ice caves. Our guide Thema was excellent and very knowledgeable! She told us the history behind Katla as well as lots of other geological information about the caves, the volcano, and the area. It was an easy hike up the mountain to where the current cave was. I will say that since it was the end of the summer the cave was definitely nearing the end of its tour life, as the walls were melting and there was a river flowing through it so we couldn’t go all the way in. But we are happy we still got to see the blue ice!

Jeep and Ice cave adventure
Amazing experience that captured adventure and beauty. The jeep ride was so much fun with great spots for nature photography. The glacier and ice cave constantly evolving and changing. Very impressive and beautiful to see up close. Our guide was so fun. Gave us relevant information and answered questions.

Something I never done before
An unforgettable glacier hike and an experience unlike anything I’ve ever done before! The views were absolutely amazing, and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, strong, and supportive throughout the hike. The hike was slightly challenging, especially with the rain, but that made the experience even more memorable.
If you’re going, definitely bring good waterproof rain gear—and make sure to cover your backpack! Despite the rain, we absolutely loved our hike and would highly recommend this unique experience

1000/10 see this show
This was such a cool and unique experience that can’t be recreated elsewhere. I was nervous that it was going to be overly touristy but it wasn’t. Quick fun facts about volcanoes and lava. Our host, Ann-Sophie, was phenomenal. She was energetic and funny and very very knowledgeable. Loved this experience!

Highlight of our ring road trip!
This experience was one of the highlights of our two week ring road trip. I have been on many atv tours all over the world but this one was the coolest. We went through many different terrains. Black sand beach and going through mud was fun but then we got to ride through a pretty big river which I had never done. But the best was seeing the abandoned plane. I had only seen in in pics but it was so cool to see in person and hear the story about what happened and why it was there.

Wonderful experience with young kids
We had a wonderful and unforgettable experience with the Ice cave tour by Katlatrack. Our guide Ines was very knowledgeable and amicable. She took her time to explain all the relevant details and any questions we had. Not every company conducting the Ice cave tour allows 7 yrs old kids. Katlatrack does and Ines, our guide, took great care of all the young kids in our group including my daughter. Highly recommended.

Hella awesome!
If you’re visiting Iceland, I highly recommend doing the Katla Ice Cave tour. It’s a truly unique natural wonder and something you won’t forget.
The super jeep ride across the rugged landscape to reach the cave was an adventure in itself and really added to the experience. It was beautiful with all the snow.
Our guide was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about the glacier and the area. They explained how the cave forms under the glacier and made sure everyone felt safe and comfortable throughout the tour.

Vik may not have an exciting name—it just translates to “bay” in Icelandic—but this town on the southern tip of Iceland is anything but boring. Sign a waiver, and within minutes, Vik tours will have you riding in a buggy along the black sand beach of Reynisfjara, exploring an ice cave under Katla Volcano, or snowmobiling above it on Mýrdalsjökull, the country’s fourth-largest glacier. Ziplining, paragliding, and kayaking (in a glacial lagoon) are all options if you go with a guide.
