This trip went ahead even though it was only us booked on for that day it was like a private trip. Our guide was fantastic giving us tips on other place to see and on the best things to do on this tour he also had very good taste in music! We where given plenty of time to see everything and he catered it specifically for us which was nice. The glacier was a great way to spend half the day with lots of things to do and see at the top of the cable car.
