Terms & conditions

ONLINE BOOKING
When you book a tour online, you will see a Booking confirmation page with a Confirmation code, stating tour departure time and date as well as your name and number of participants. You can write down the confirmation code, and that is all you need to show at check-in.

VALIDITY OF PRICES AND DEPARTURES
Prices are in Icelandic Krona (ISK) and are including VAT as shown on our web site. Prices and departures are guaranteed after full payment has been made.

WEATHER AND CONDITIONS
All our trips and outdoor activities are weather, and condition dependent. Glacier Adventure reserve the right to cancel your trip with your safety in mind.
The tours can be canceled due to safety reasons or other natural conditions, with short notice. In such cases, a full refund is provided.

Glacier Adventure reserves the right to alter routes, itineraries, departure times and or cancel your trip without prior notice with your safety in mind, should the necessity arise.

We don’t repay the fee if the client is late or doesn’t show up even if the weather is very bad, in case we can do the trip. We recommend that participants stay in a hotel or guesthouse close to Hali the night before the tour because sometimes the road to us can be closed so clients have to do some arrangements in time.

CLOTHING
Appropriate footwear and suitable outdoor clothing must be worn at all times. Glacier Adventure reserves the right to refuse participation if not correctly equipped since this will put the clients at risk. In case of refusal, a refund will not be possible.

CANCELLATION POLICY
All cancellations of tours must go through our office by email to [email protected]
