“Amazing sight to see! I was worried that in late May, most of the caves would be melted and not much to see. But we went through an amazing cave and hike through the glacier. Didn't quite need gloves or toques but hiking shoes helped. One person had running shoes and he managed fine since they gave out spikes for your shoes. Pricey for a whole family but definitely worth doing!”

But amazing scenery and we could take it slow, and the provided crampons were invaluable. Definitely needed fully waterproof jacket/pants that day, and I was happy I brought hiking boots. Our guide Natalia was fantastic—so much great information. Would highly recommend thus tour!”

Review of the Katla ice cave tour from Vík, with glacier access, monster-truck transport, practical tips, costs, safety, and honest drawbacks.

My husband isn’t the most agile and Simeon was very patient, helping him along the trickier spots. It is a pretty active experience and wouldn’t recommend for someone with issues with walking and agility. It was a blast!”
