Unwind in Iceland’s most popular oceanside spa and chase the northern lights in the evening on this Sky Lagoon and northern lights tour from Reykjavik. Perfect for travelers seeking comfort and wonder in equal measure, this experience combines the peaceful warmth of geothermal bathing with the magic of the aurora borealis.
This 6.5-hour tour in Iceland brings together two memorable experiences without the need to plan anything yourself. With entry, transport, and northern lights guiding all included, it offers an easy and well-paced way to enjoy both relaxation and adventure in a single day.
Your journey begins with a scenic bus ride from Reykjavik to Sky Lagoon in Kopavogur, just 7.5 kilometers (4.5 miles) from the city center. This oceanside geothermal spa blends modern design with Icelandic nature, overlooking the vast North Atlantic.
From the infinity edge of the lagoon, you can admire sweeping views of Mount Keilir and the dramatic coastline as the water’s gentle heat melts away tension. At the heart of the experience is the Sky Lagoon Skjol Ritual, a seven-step spa journey inspired by Icelandic bathing traditions.
Move between the warm lagoon, a cold plunge, sauna, cool mist, and a mineral-rich body scrub before stepping into a steam room to seal in the rejuvenating effects. This holistic process refreshes both body and spirit, leaving you feeling centered and renewed.
Guests can also order a drink from the swim-up bar and light snacks from the cafe before the evening’s next adventure.
As night falls, you’ll return to Reykjavik, where a local guide will take you on a northern lights hunt.
Each night’s location is chosen based on weather and aurora forecasts, ensuring the best possible viewing conditions. You’ll travel away from city lights to a quiet, dark area where the skies are clearest and the chances of seeing the aurora are highest.
Watching the northern lights in Iceland is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. The shimmering waves of green, pink, and violet light dance across the sky as charged solar particles interact with the Earth’s atmosphere.
Your expert guide will share fascinating insights about the phenomenon and help you capture the perfect photos of this natural wonder.
If conditions prevent the aurora from appearing, travelers can join another northern lights tour free of charge, ensuring everyone gets the best chance to witness this unforgettable spectacle.
