What to expect
Leave Reykjavík behind and head into Iceland’s winter wilderness on a Northern Lights hunt designed for travellers who value comfort, space, and a more thoughtful approach to aurora chasing. Travel aboard a modern, full-size comfort coach equipped with Wi-Fi and an onboard restroom, allowing you to relax as our team actively tracks cloud cover and aurora activity in real time to select the most promising locations each evening.
Instead of following a fixed route, this tour is guided by real-time conditions. Our team carefully selects viewing locations throughout the evening, aiming for quieter surroundings whenever possible. While some stops may take place at established viewing points, the focus is always on finding the best available conditions for a comfortable and rewarding northern lights experience.
Throughout the journey, your guide will explain how aurora forecasts work, what conditions influence visibility, and the reasoning behind each stop, giving you a deeper understanding of the experience beyond simply “waiting for the lights.”
To make the evening even more special, enjoy complimentary hot drinks during the ride, along with a distinctive Icelandic Surprise Experience – a small cultural tasting inspired by local traditions, adding a personal and memorable touch to your journey.
When conditions are right, you’ll step outside to watch the sky for shimmering green arcs, soft glows, or full aurora displays. Your guide will also share practical tips on how to observe and photograph the lights, helping you make the most of every opportunity.
As the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, sightings cannot be guaranteed. If they don’t appear during your tour, you’re welcome to join one additional departure free of charge, subject to availability. For the best chances, we recommend booking early in your stay.
Combining real-time decision making, a comfort-focused experience, and a unique local touch, this tour offers a warm and memorable way to explore Iceland’s night skies.
