Enjoyed the Wilderness Walk

The wind was strong on the day, which made the jet boat ride a wee bit uncomfortable. But it was still fun, especially the 360 degree turns. The part I liked to best was the wilderness walk with our guide Ben. Stunning beautiful.

Great experience

Loved this trip. Was right on time and Sophie our van driver was friendly. Ben our jet boat driver was very informative and didn’t rush things and so the whole trip felt relaxed and easy going. Scenery was amazing and the glacier was spectacular despite the cloud covering probably half of it. Highly recommend this trip!
