It was an amazing adventure! Basia, Steven, and Michele were exceptionally well-prepared and knowledgeable, which made the entire experience incredibly enjoyable. The climbing portion was the highlight, and the guides were supportive and patient with everyone. The entire group was well taken care of. I would recommend this experience to anyone seeking something a bit more special while exploring the beauty of Iceland.
