"Wonderful tour guide, great experience!"
We had a fantastic tour in early September with the very friendly and knowledgeable Elin- she made the tour so interesting! It was an amazing experience to walk on a glacier in the morning and then speed around the Jökulsárlón Lagoon in the afternoon, I recommend it to anyone coming to Iceland's South Coast. We had enough time at the sites and were able to relax during the lunch break in between the two excursions, very well organized!

"Glacier Hike"
The tour was really great. At the start, we all sat down in chairs to get the correct crampons for our shoes. After that, we hopped into a mini bus to drive to the glacier. Our tour guide, August, was really informative, engaging and very friendly. The views were amazing so make sure to bring a camera.

"Unforgettable adventure"
This was truly an incredible experience and worth every penny. Started the day with the hot springs, then heading to the magnificent waterfalls on the way to the glacier, which was otherworldly. Our guide was great, he had so much knowledge and experience and I felt safe and in good hands. Highly recommend the Walk through Fire and Ice day trip.

"Review of the IMG31 Landmannalaugar - Þórsmörk trek, September 2015"
Very nice group, excellent guide, fantastic landscapes. A real pleasure. The huts were a bit of a letdown: most were old, shabby and cramped... And not a single natural hot pool in sight when one would think that all they have to do is bore a hole in the ground. Apart from that, it was a marvellous trip.

"Safe Experience"
Walking the glacier fulfilled a dream. With the team of Icelandic Mountain Guides I always felt safe, learned a lot and gained experiences for life. Also they do care about nature and try not to harm it. They respect it.

"Best way to really get to know Iceland"
The only way to see the uninhabited and stunningly beautiful interior of Iceland is to go on a trek. We did a supported trek with Icelandic Mountain guides in July 2015 and it was the highlight of our trip. Even though spring was late arriving and access to the trails was challenging, Icelandic Mountain guides were able to get us safely through our trip and keep us well supplied. Our guide, Robert, was exceptionally informative and entertaining. The trek (a Category 3)is physically demanding, but not overwhelming, and the sense of accomplishment you get at the end of the day,as well as the comraderie with other hikers make this a fantastic experience. The food we were served was plentiful and delicious, by far the best of any other hiking tour groups we saw. Trekking with Icelandic Mountain Guides will exceed your expections.

"Simple, no frills but a great time"
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, my guide was engaging. Tours are book back to back so when your session is done you have to quickly make your way back, its best to consider your physical level and stamina. It's important to note they only deal with equipping you, educating you on the do's and don'ts and guide you on the glacier. They are not affiliated with the facilities at the base of the site so things like food/water and bathroom may or may not be available.

"Professional, friendly, knowledgeable"
I would recommend Icelandic Mountain Guides, I walked the Laugavegur Trail in August. The weather was very mixed, but mostly cold and wet but this did not dampen our experience. We had a wonderful time with our guide Siggi and the man who transported everything (sorry - can't remember his name). We learnt much about Iceland from these two, their enthusiasm and knowledge was inspiring. They were also very professional and worked hard to make sure we got the most out of our stay.
I also went glacier walking with Icelandic Mountain Guides, this was well organised and a great experience, our guide Kris was again knowledge and interesting.

"glacier tour in June"
We had an excellent tour with IMG. We made our reservation on-line the day before the trip, and were able to talk to the staff to address some questions prior to the trip. I had previous glacier experience but my wife did not. The tour was enjoyable for any level of experience. The staff was excellent with explanations, very safe, and well informed about local geography, climate, and history. I would highly recommend the tour and company. I only wish that we had time for one of the longer tours/climbs.
The only recommendation would be to address the lack of adequate toilet facilities near the trailhead. This is not solely IMG responsibility, but perhaps could be a collaborative effort among all the businesses there.
