Description
Experience the ultimate winter adventure in Iceland with glacier snowmobiling by day and a guided northern lights hunt by night. This action-packed small-group tour is perfect for travelers who crave excitement, stunning landscapes, and the chance to witness one of nature's most extraordinary phenomena.
The day begins with convenient pickup from Reykjavik, where your guide will greet you and escort you into the rugged countryside in a comfortable vehicle. As you leave the city behind, enjoy views of Iceland's dramatic terrain while heading toward the Langjokull Glacier area.
Upon arrival at the glacier base camp, you'll transfer into a specially equipped super jeep for an exciting off-road ride up to the snowmobiling base. The super jeep ride through in itself is a thrilling activity, traversing snowy and rugged terrain.
Once there, your certified guide will provide all necessary safety gear, including helmets, insulated overalls, balaclavas, and gloves, along with a briefing on how to safely operate your snowmobile.
Next, set out on an exhilarating snowmobile journey across Langjokull, Iceland's second-largest glacier. As you drive across snowy plains and icy ridges, you'll take in sweeping views of white wilderness and glacier-carved landscapes. Whether it's your first time or you're an experienced rider, this adventure offers the perfect mix of speed, scenery, and snow.
After your ride, you'll return to the base camp and stop for a break at a nearby bistro, where you can purchase lunch and rest before the evening portion of the tour begins.
When darkness falls, your northern lights guide will use local knowledge and up-to-date aurora forecasts to lead you deep into the countryside, far from light pollution. The destination is not set, so your viewing backdrop may be a peninsula, coastal area, or a snowy valley near Reykjavik.
You'll search for the aurora borealis under clear skies, and when conditions are right, watch as ribbons of green, purple, or red dance overhead. Vibrant green is its most common color, but the northern lights remain breathtaking regardless of the hues you see.
Your guide will capture a photo of the experience, which you can download for free after the tour.
Warm drinks will be provided as you take in the stillness of the winter night before returning to Reykjavik with memories of an unforgettable day.
