Chase one of nature’s most magical displays on this northern lights tour from Reykjavik, where expert planning and careful forecasting give you the best possible chance to see the aurora. This 4-hour experience is perfect for families and small groups who want a relaxed and well-organized aurora borealis tour.

The group travels on a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter minibus with onboard Wi-Fi. Guides speak Spanish, English, or French, making the experience easy to follow for many travelers.

This small group northern lights tour from Reykjavik offers a more personal and flexible experience while chasing the aurora. With fewer people around, everyone has more space to take photos, stay comfortable, and truly enjoy the magic of the night sky.

When the evening looks right, your aurora borealis tour begins with a comfortable pickup in Reykjavik. Soon, the city lights fade behind you.

The drive leads into darker countryside areas where the sky is clearer. These quiet landscapes offer excellent conditions for viewing the northern lights.

During the journey, your guide continues to monitor the sky and forecasts. They choose viewing spots that offer the best chance to see the aurora.

Waiting for the lights becomes part of the adventure. Everyone looks up at the quiet night sky while enjoying hot chocolate and cookies. Icelandic blankets are also provided, creating a cozy atmosphere outdoors while everyone watches for the first glow of the aurora.

Then comes the magical moment. The aurora borealis begins to move across the sky. Ribbons of green light ripple above Iceland’s dark winter landscape. It’s a breathtaking sight and often the highlight of a trip to Iceland.

Your guide is also a professional photographer who will help capture photos of you beneath the northern lights, giving you a special memory to take home from Iceland. 

Throughout the evening, the guide also shares stories and local legends connected to the aurora. Feel free to ask questions, learn something new, and enjoy the peaceful glow of the lights together with the group.

Instead of heading out every night, this northern lights tour from Reykjavik only operates when conditions look promising. Each day, experienced guides study the weather forecast and aurora activity.

Only when the outlook looks good does the tour go ahead. This thoughtful approach helps maximize your chances of seeing the northern lights.

After this unforgettable experience, it’s time to head back to the city. The drive back to Reykjavik is calm and comfortable. Once in the capital, you say goodbye to your guide and fellow travelers.

Good to know

The northern lights are a natural phenomenon, so sightings can never be guaranteed. However, the team uses expert weather and aurora forecasts to give you the best possible chance of seeing them.

The minimum group size for this northern lights tour is 7. Infants aged 0 to 4 years are not recommended for this nighttime tour due to the late schedule and conditions. If you require a booster or infant seat, please request one in advance.

Restroom facilities are limited outside urban areas, so it’s best to plan ahead. Make sure to dress warmly, as it can get quite cold while watching the sky.

You’re also welcome to bring snacks and drinks for the 4-hour trip.
