Description

Set out on a hunt for the northern lights in a super jeep by booking this incredible guided excursion. Those eager to see the beauty of the aurora borealis and embark on an adventure in a super jeep should book this tour now.

Your tour begins when you are picked up in a super jeep from an agreed meeting point in the Lake Myvatn area. You will then meet your expert English-speaking guide and the other guests on the tour.

This excursion is a small group tour, so you can get to know the other people on the tour and enjoy a personalized experience. During the evening, you'll have plenty of opportunities to ask the guide questions.

In Iceland, super jeeps are specially modified vehicles designed to handle the country's rugged terrain and harsh weather conditions.

Equipped with oversized tires, enhanced suspension systems, and robust engines, these jeeps can navigate snow, ice, and rocky landscapes that regular vehicles can't. They are essential for exploring remote areas like glaciers, highlands, and volcanic regions.

A super jeep is an excellent option for a northern lights tour as they can go off the beaten track and find the best places to see the northern lights, away from the tourist crowds.

Once you're comfortable on board the super jeep, you will head out into the night, searching for the northern lights.

The northern lights, or aurora borealis as they are also known, is a natural light display that occurs when charged particles from the sun collide with the Earth's atmosphere, creating vibrant colors in the sky.

Iceland's long, dark winters and clear nights offer excellent northern light viewing conditions. The best time to see them is during the winter season, from September to April.

Many tourists visit Iceland specifically to witness this stunning phenomenon, ranging from subtle glows to dramatic light shows. Seeing them is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and a bucket list item for many.

The northern lights are a natural phenomenon, and there are no guarantees you will see them. However, your expert guide has access to weather and aurora forecasts, which will tell them where the best places to see them are, away from the light pollution of the towns.

If and when you find the northern lights, you can enjoy watching them dance in the sky from outside the super jeep. Be sure to wrap up warm, as the temperatures at night in Iceland can fall below freezing.

Your guide will help you photograph the aurora borealis and tell you which settings to use on your phone or camera.

At the end of the tour, you will be dropped off in the Lake Myvatn area, ready to continue your adventures in Iceland.

Enjoy this exciting excursion, hunting for the northern lights on a super jeep adventure in North Iceland. Check availability now by choosing a date.
