    My trips were cancelled and I’m very glad.

    This trip was cancelled twice by two different tour operators that I booked through Viator. The second booking was cancelled the evening before!!! They said there was not enough take up. I now know why. They were charging over £300 for 3 people when we got the same deal for £120 by booking with olden experiences directly. Luckily my husband found them online after I was so upset about the possibility of missing out again. No wonder no one was booking. What a rip off. Glad I got a refund and saved money. The glacier hike was amazing and I had money in my pocket to get a coffee !! I would recommend the experience but not through Viator.

    Excellent Tour to Briksdal

    Nice tour, well organized, plenty of time at the glacier. Good commentary. The hike to the glacier is moderately strenuous.

    Beautiful! Order troll car days before

    Great views of the glacier. The walkway is gravel and does have a pretty good incline there. Wear layers as you will shed some during the day. If you want to take the troll car - order days ahead because there were none available when we got there. The complete hike (to/fro) took us 2 hours with brief stops. The guide gave us some history but I would have enjoyed more. It was just a lovely day.

    Our excursion to the Glacier was perfect! We met our tour operator Elisabet right at the terminal. We took a very comfortable bus to the base of the glacier where we then hiked for about 45 mins to the glacier. The walk was not too strenuous and very beautiful. Elisabet was very knowledgeable and ensured that we had a very enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend this tour with Elisabet!!

    Lovely Day!

    Beautiful hike. Be prepared for hills by layering. You will get warm, but up top it’s cold by the glacier.
