“Absolutely incredible. We debated doing the minitrekking because it was so expensive compared to just the boat ride but we are so happy we decided to do it. The scale is absolutely insane and the experience of walking on a glacier doesn’t come by often. I would highly recommend! We lucked out with weather and the guides were incredible.”

Overall, I recommend.”

“O rapel é bem legal. Pra mim que sou medrosa foi incrível mas para o restante do grupo, foi bem básico. Esse foi o único ponto bom da minha experiência. Eles não se organizam com tempo das atividades e pessoas disponíveis para fazer e você acaba esperando muito sem ter nada para fazer. Eu esperei de 14h até as 16:50 pelo trekking e desisti. A tirolesa é pífia. Se você escorregar de um corrimão da escada terá a mesma experiência. Realmente não recomendo.”
