Description

Maximize your chance of seeing the aurora on this private northern lights tour in Iceland that takes you into the dark, open countryside in a powerful super jeep. This winter tour from Reykjavik is a wonderful choice for anyone dreaming of a quiet, cozy night of aurora watching with their friends or family.

Leading your northern lights super jeep tour is your driver-guide, who is also an experienced aurora hunter and a professional photographer. They track cloud movements, study the forecast, and choose viewing stops based on the strongest conditions of the night.

With a capable vehicle and a knowledgeable guide, you can reach quiet, hard-to-access areas around Reykjavik. This gives you an advantage and excellent chances of seeing the aurora far from the crowds.

The roomy super jeep keeps your group comfortable, and the private setup means the northern lights tour moves entirely at your pace. This relaxed pace also makes the photo-taking experience better, as your guide has time to help you pose and capture beautiful images when the lights appear.

Pick-up from Reykjavik is smooth and easy. The quiet drive feels like part of the adventure as you drive past snowy plains, lava fields,  and mountains. 

Your guide picks a quiet, dark viewing spot based on live forecasts and aurora trackers, making sure you stand under the best sky of the night. Once you arrive, you settle in with hot chocolate and hand warmers as everyone looks up at the stars together.

Listen as your guide shares both the science behind the aurora and the old Icelandic stories connected to the lights, showing how they have shaped local culture through the centuries.

With the aurora overhead, your photographer captures beautiful photos of you enjoying the moment. Take your time to savor your own little private viewing of the northern lights as you share stories and laughs with your group. 

After your viewing, you travel back to Reykjavik. The return journey is calm and peaceful, with moonlit mountains and quiet winter scenery surrounding you. It’s the perfect ending to a magical night in Iceland.

Sightings are not guaranteed, but this northern lights tour runs from November to April, aligning with the best season for aurora viewing. Your guide plans the experience around the most active hours of the night to give you the greatest chance of seeing the lights.

Good to know

The northern lights are a natural phenomenon, so sightings can never be guaranteed. To enhance your chance of seeing the aurora, your guide follows trackers and forecasts. If conditions look poor on your selected date, the tour may be moved to a better night, depending on availability.

Restrooms can be limited outside the city, so it helps to plan ahead. Dress warmly, as it can get very cold while watching the sky, and feel free to bring snacks or drinks for the 4-hour tour.
