Stellar Experience
Really great hike with stellar views. It is not for the weak. We had a few people tap out half way. I think they would have been fine had they hung in there, but it is a very long hike. My advice would be do a lot of walking before you visit and you will be fine. The hikes probably a little over 10 miles total. Our guide was Lucas and he was great. He kept a nice slow pace so everyone could keep up and was very knowlegable about the glacier. I can't wait to come back again.

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.

A must-do in Iceland!
We LOVED the tour. It was so mind blowingly cool to see, touch, and taste the glacier ice - though heartbreaking to hear how it’s changing every day due to climate change. Such a unique experience - we’re glad we picked this for our trip to Iceland. Gabriella “Gabi” was a fantastic and super knowledgeable guide.

Recommended Hike Tour
I went on an early 0900 hike. It was the only time slot open but honestly it worked out so well. The tour guide takes you in a beautiful hike to the glacier. The hike is beautiful where you get to experience valleys full of moss and berries, creeks and waterfalls. After we made it to the glacier and our tour guide named Ekla was such a great leader, adventurer, full of enthusiasm and just overall made the experience so amazing. From tips on how to walk with crampons, to taking us far into the glacier hike, to giving us information about Iceland and its history, it was just so good!!
Highly recommend early hike because when our group was heading back there were a lot of people in the trail and glacier

Super cool trip!
Super fun tour, within a nice 2-3hr window so not too long. We booked through Arctic Adventures. Fun drive in the jeep to the glacier - expect it to be bumpy :) ice caves were very cool - what you will see will depend on time of year and how much the glacier has melted etc.
We went in August-from what the guide was saying perhaps it is better a month before. But still loved it!

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.

Daniel - The Best Guide (From Eric Kong, Helen Yeung, Audrey Kong, Hanford Kong (Kong’s Family) and Dabbie Yeung)
Daniel is the best guide / coach I have ever met. He guided us through the whole ice climbing experience carefully, and teach us all the essential techniques, knowledge and skills on the whole exploring. He also gave us very tender care and emotional support which is utmost important for us to break through and be our best. He is thus the best. Salute to him and I will recommend this first-class guide / coach to all my friends and any others. ❤️❤️

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.

More than just a cave tour.
Our host was a total wealth of knowledge. They didn't just rush us inside; they took a bunch of extra time at the start and end of the trip to chat about the local area. We got a full breakdown of the volcanoes we could see right from the site, which added so much context to where we were standing.
Once we got underground, things got even better. Instead of a dry, scripted history lesson, we got passionate storytelling that really brought the caves to life. You can tell the guide isn't just reciting facts—they’re sharing a piece of their heritage. It made the whole vibe down there feel more authentic.
There is current works ongoing to open up some of the remaining caves, which I'll definitely return to see.

Fantastic once in a lifetime trip
Fantastic day trip from Reykjavik! Our bus driver Egill picked us up directly in front of our hotel in a very comfortable sprinter van. He provided very informative and funny commentary during the ride to Vik. We stopped at a supermarket for snacks and a bathroom break. In vik we met up with Martin who drove us in a small group in a super jeep to the Katla ice caves! What an experience! Once in a lifetime experience. Martin was funny, informative and fun!! Highly recommend!! One of our favorite tours in Iceland

Amazing!! Would definitely recommend
This was so much fun!! Highly recommend doing this before the glacier melts and you can’t anymore. Although me and my friends had never gone ice pik climbing or glacier hiking, we felt super safe since our guide was very experienced and made sure we were harnessed, had crampons, etc. Thankfully we all had plenty of hiking & skiing experience, which was good because this activity was quite the hike and definitely required some stamina and muscles. There were also folks in our group who had done this before, and they also enjoyed it, so I think this is good both for beginners and those with experience.

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.
