About This Tour
This is a strictly private ascent. Unlike group tours that move in convoys, our pace is dictated solely by you. Whether you wish to focus on the technical aspects of ice walking, the photography of volcanic ash layers, or simply the silence of the glacier, your guide curates the route to ensure separation from the crowds and a profound connection with the landscape.
