About this experience
Words simply cannot describe the sight of this spectacular phenomenon. It is an experience you will want to savor, enjoy and remember for years to come.
With that in mind, we have designed our Northern Lights tour with a clear focus on the experience itself. We begin our hunt with thoughtful pre-planning, using the latest Aurora forecasts to choose the most promising direction before we set off. Your guide then takes you comfortably toward the best possible viewing location.
Once the elusive lights appear, we pull over, bundle you up in a cozy Icelandic wool blanket and let you take in the incredible swirling display overhead. This is also the perfect moment to enjoy a warm cup of hot chocolate and traditional Icelandic kleina pastries. And of course, we will take photos of you with the Northern Lights included in the tour price, so you can treasure the memory long after the night ends.
Could there ever be a better moment?
