Charming 4-Hour Northern Lights Tour in Minibus with Photos and Refreshments

Embark on an unforgettable four-hour northern lights adventure from Reykjavik, where you’ll chase the aurora borealis in the comfort of a small group tour. This guided excursion will maximize your chances of seeing the auroras, complete with cozy refreshments and free photos to capture the magic of the evening.

The tour departs from Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland. You will enjoy a convenient pick-up from the nearest tour bus stop to your accommodation in the city. 

Iceland’s weather can be unpredictable, particularly in winter, when temperatures can drop significantly. To stay warm and comfortable, it’s essential to wear multiple layers of clothing, including thermal wear, a waterproof jacket, gloves, and a hat. 

The minibus will take you into the Icelandic countryside as the city lights fade behind you. You have better chances of spotting the northern lights away from light pollution.

Your local guide, an expert in locating the best spots for northern lights viewing, will lead the tour. Using their knowledge of weather patterns, aurora forecasts, and local conditions, they will take you to areas with the highest chance of spotting the aurora borealis. 

Whether by a remote lake, an open field, or a mountain backdrop, your guide aims to find the perfect location for this natural spectacle. Along the way, they’ll also share fascinating insights into the science and folklore behind the northern lights.

As you arrive at a prime viewing location to watch the sky, you’ll be treated to cozy blankets, a warm cup of hot chocolate, and a traditional Icelandic pastry. These thoughtful additions make the experience even more special to keep you warm and comfortable while you wait for the lights to appear. 

When the auroras begin to dance across the sky, you’ll enjoy a display of swirling and twisting lights. The most common color of the auroras is green, but they could appear in other hues like pink, yellow, purple, and red. 

To ensure your memories last a lifetime, your guide will also take free photos of you and the northern lights. This will allow you to focus on the experience without worrying about capturing the moment, although you’re also encouraged to bring your cameras.

With the beauty of the auroras and the cozy comforts of this small-group tour, this evening is sure to be one of the highlights of your Iceland adventure.

After a successful hunt for the aurora borealis, the guide will drop you off back in Reykjavik.

Please note that although Iceland is one of the best places to see the northern lights, its appearance cannot be guaranteed. The auroras remain dependent on weather conditions and sky conditions.
