We loved this tour! Steve our tour guide was brilliant! Great balance of taking time to take pictures and go at everyone’s pace, whilst using lots of humour and sharing his knowledge of the glacier structures… an absolutely superb morning out with the wild weather to compliment it!
We had a fab time! The tour group wasn't too big, and our guide, Basha/Borsha (so sorry), was great! She was patient, funny and catered everyone's pace. The hike wasn't too difficult at all, just some steep sections. It's such a unique experience and yes it was a little expensive, but very worthwhile. I'd highly recommend!
