Highlights
The Northern Lights are probably the most magnificent phenomenon that one can witness in nature. And if you came all the way to Iceland in the wintertime, it for sure needs to be on your bucket list. Just like any natural phenomenon, it can never be 100% guaranteed that the lights will come up when you are looking up at the sky. In order to maximize your chances, we will only conduct the tour if the conditions look epic.

Itinerary
We will drive far away from Reykjavík, to leave the lights of the city behind us and get the darkest skies we can find. Your guide will drive toward a place where weather forecasts are planning on having a clear cloud cover. This is the first thing you need to see the Northern Lights: No clouds. The next things you need are luck and patience: The luckier you are, the less patient you need to be! Fortunately, our guide will entertain you with nice Northern Lights stories and provide you with hot chocolate to keep you warm. This should help with the patience!

About Reykjavik
Reykjavik is the northernmost capital of any nation, a colourful, compact city of art and music that opens onto Iceland's volcanic landscapes.
The landmark Hallgrímskirkja church, its tower inspired by basalt columns, rises above streets of brightly painted houses. Down by the harbour, the glass-fronted Harpa concert hall shimmers on the water, and the Sun Voyager sculpture faces the sea toward Mount Esja. Laugavegur, the main shopping street, is lined with design shops, cafés and bars.
Top-ranked sights in Reykjavik: Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, Harpa.
