The ride to the glacier was fantastic fun and comfortable. Highly recommended this for all but remember you need to meet in Gullfoss so you need to rent a car if in Reykjavík. Guides were awesome and fun! Being on a glacier has allowed me another check on the bucket list.

Great Experience

Richard_G, Jun 2026

A fantastic, unique experience Best ride in the snow I've ever had! Who ever thought you could golf on a glacier!

Response from Host, Jun 2026

Thank you for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the ride and had such a unique experience on Langjökull Glacier. Glacier golf is certainly not something you get to do every day, and we're glad you gave it a try! We hope to welcome you back for another adventure in our Monster Truck someday. Best regards, The Sleipnir Glacier Tours Team

Despite the gray weather,...

Julianne_A, Aug 2025

Despite the gray weather, we really enjoyed our tour. Kimberly was a great narrator and the driver was very competent.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Hi Juliann, Thank you for your lovely review! We're so glad to hear you had a great time despite the gray weather—the glacier truly has its own charm in every condition. Best regards, The Sleipnir Tours Team

A very special experience

MajBritt_M, Jul 2025

A very special and amazing experience to be on a glacier - if you’ve never tried it before, then go! The transportation by the monstertruck feels safe and fun - and both driver and guide was absolutely fine.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you so much for your kind words and for joining us on the glacier! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the experience and felt safe and well taken care of by our team. It's always a special moment to be out on the ice, especially for the first time. If there's anything you feel we could improve to make it a full 5-star experience next time, we’d love to hear it. Hope to welcome you back again someday!

Needs a full 10 hour, but...

Varun_G, Jul 2025

Needs a full 10 hour, but worth the experience and time. Adding snow mobil tour to it, should be an option..

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Thank you for sharing your thoughts — we’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the Glacier Monster Truck Tour and that you would have liked even more time on the glacier. With the beautiful weather you experienced, we completely understand the wish to stay out there longer — it’s truly special when conditions are that good! We appreciate your suggestion about adding a snowmobiling option. While we understand the appeal, this particular tour is designed to be a non-technical and family-friendly glacier experience, suitable for all ages from 4 years and up. That’s why we focus on activities like sledding, glacier golf, and the Glacier Café — all part of creating a fun, easygoing experience that’s accessible to everyone. For guests looking for more physically demanding adventures like snowmobiling, we do offer separate tour options that focus specifically on that. Thanks again for joining us — we hope to welcome you back for another adventure soon! Sleipnir Glacier Tours Team

Exhilarating

Mark_Q, Oct 2024

The only big truck experience to do!! Being on the glacier, with a truck driver with over 24 years of driving on the glacier was outstanding . His knowledge of the glacier, the way we travelled over the crevices was exciting. To not only drive and walk on the glacier, we were able to toboggan, play golf and of course drink hot chocolate with extras . Our guide also had many interesting facts and stories of the area.

Response from Host, Oct 2024

Amazing Glacier Tour

Meaghan_G, Sep 2023

We had a blast on the glacier monster truck ride. Once we were on the glacier it started to snow and was just amazing seeing white all around you. When we come to Iceland again we will definitely do it again.

Response from Host, Oct 2023

Thank you for sharing your exhilarating experience with us! It sounds like Mother Nature decided to add a touch of magic to your monster truck ride with that unexpected snowfall. There's truly nothing quite like being surrounded by a serene blanket of white on the glacier. We're thrilled to hear that your adventure was memorable enough to consider a repeat when you return to Iceland. Your endorsement is the best compliment we could receive. Thank you for choosing Sleipnir Tours for your glacier adventure, and we eagerly await your next visit! Warm regards, Kamil Jan - Marketing Manager
