Description

Make your dream of seeing the northern lights come true on this private tour from Reykjavik. Designed for travelers who want a front-row seat to one of nature's most breathtaking displays, this northern lights tour combines expert guidance and comfortable transport for a seamless Arctic adventure.

On this private northern lights tour, you won't need to track forecasts, navigate icy roads, or guess where to go. Your guide will handle everything, from driving to finding the best viewing locations far from light pollution.

Your evening begins with a hassle-free pick-up from Reykjavik, where you'll meet your experienced local guide. Travel in comfort on a cozy, heated vehicle, ensuring you stay warm as you explore Iceland's remote landscapes.

Unlike large group tours, this adventure ensures an intimate northern lights experience in Iceland. There are no crowds, no stress, just unforgettable skies and the full attention of your expert guide.

Your guide will monitor the forecast, adapting your itinerary to maximize your chances of seeing the aurora borealis. Feel free to ask your guide if you're curious about the science, stories, or anything about the northern lights.

As you wait for the lights to appear, you'll be surrounded by the peace and tranquility of Iceland's stunning wilderness. Warm up with hot drinks and snacks, including traditional Icelandic cookies, as you enjoy stargazing in the crisp Arctic air.

When the aurora appears, your guide will help you seize the perfect shot. With expert tips on angles and settings, you'll capture stunning photos that will let you relive the magic of the experience long after the lights fade.

As you line up your shot, the sky may suddenly come alive with vivid shades of green and even hints of violet and pink. Many guests describe this moment as surreal, feeling awe as the aurora dances above.

Since the northern lights are a natural phenomenon, sightings cannot be guaranteed. To maximize your chances, we recommend booking early in your trip.

If the lights don't appear on your first night, you can rebook the tour at no extra cost, giving you another shot at this awe-inspiring display.

Be sure to dress warmly for this northern lights tour. Wear layers, including thermal clothing, hats, gloves, and sturdy boots, to stay comfortable in the chilly Arctic air.
