Description

Look for the northern lights from the sea on this boat tour from Reykjavik's Old Harbor, with expert guides, a free hot chocolate, and a free retry if no lights are seen.

Once on board, you wear warm flotation overalls.

As you sail out, you have panoramic views of the Reykjavik skyline from the sea. You can watch for the aurora from the deck or stay in the heated indoor cabins.

Experienced guides lead the tour and tell you about the northern lights. A complimentary hot chocolate is served on board, and you can buy snacks and other drinks.

The northern lights are a natural phenomenon and depend on the weather, so sightings can't be guaranteed.
