Glacier Guides is an internationally recognized guiding operation in Iceland that prides itself on offering the most enjoyable, incredible in depth glacier experience possible. Our base of operations is located in Skaftafell, an oasis under the giant Vatnajökull Glacier in South Iceland.
Glaciers cover approximately 11% of Iceland and exploring these ancient rivers of ice is undeniably one of the most unique and memorable experiences Iceland has to offer. Before you leave the island don’t miss the opportunity to stand on and explore such a natural wonder as Vatnajökull, the largest ice cap in the world outside of the Polar Regions.
Our experienced guides combine top of the line equipment with their wealth of mountain knowledge to help you safely access the awe-inspiring outlet glaciers of this ice cap, terrain normally only visited and seen up close by experienced mountaineers.
We are committed to providing experiences using the best ecologically sound practices available. Vatnajökull National Park is a perfect example of an area that is extremely fragile and sensitive to human traffic. It is our sincere intention to always treat nature with the utmost respect and we kindly ask that you follow our example.
Thanks in advance… Enjoy the endless beauty Iceland has to offer and join us for your next adventure.
