The ice cave tour was an amazing experience! I was really impressed with the beauty of the cave. The guide was very knowledgeable and passionate about her job. If I had to say one thing, it would be that I wish the tour was a little longer. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend it.
