Iceland’s Magical Lights - Northern lights Tour

Private Tour

Experience the Northern Lights like never before with our Premium Northern Lights Tour.

An experience like no other

Embark on an exclusive adventure with our Private Northern Lights tour, offering you the unparalleled opportunity to witness the Northern Lights on your own terms while benefiting from the expertise of our guides.

The Northern Lights Tour is not just a journey; it's a thrilling hunt for one of nature's most spectacular displays. Venturing into the frigid embrace of the winter night to witness this extraordinary symphony of lights and colors, it is akin to stepping into a fairy-tale world, brimming with enigma and enchantment.

We commence by picking you up at your Reykjavík accommodation, whisking you away from the city's luminous artificial lights and bustling urban soundscape. This private excursion empowers you to dictate the duration spent at each location, working in tandem with your knowledgeable guide.

As recommended added option, we could start our journey at Aurora Reykjavik - Northern lights Center. Here, you'd receive an informative introduction to the physics underlying the Northern Lights phenomenon and gain valuable insights into the art of photographing this celestial spectacle.

Our objective is not solely to locate the perfect photographic spots but also to savor this delicate and fleeting moment, a singular experience that may etch itself into your memory for a lifetime.

General tour description

No two northern lights tours are alike due to weather, activity, snow, luminosity of the moon etc., but the following is a general outline of how we normally operate our Norther lights tour:

Each day, we meticulously monitor the evening's weather forecast. Favorable conditions necessitate factors such as light to moderate aurora activity and a clear night sky. Once we determine that conditions are favorable, we promptly update our customers to confirm the tour.

Our journey begins at the captivating Aurora Reykjavik Museum, where we embark on an immersive experience, delving deep into the science and mythology surrounding the elusive Northern Lights.

Following this enlightening museum visit, we venture into darkness to commence our Northern Lights hunt. While we begin with a well-thought-out plan and specific locations in mind, it's crucial to remain adaptable, as conditions in the ever-changing night sky can swiftly evolve.

Once we escape the clutches of light pollution and find ourselves beneath the vast expanse of open skies, we eagerly scan for signs of auroral activity. If the Northern Lights grace us with their presence, we seize the opportunity to capture photographs and perhaps even attempt some striking portraits with the ethereal lights as a backdrop.

At some point during the tour, we take a delightful pause to savor some delectable hot chocolates and sweet pastries, adding a cozy and comforting touch to our enchanting Northern Lights adventure.

However, even with our exceptional guides and comprehensive forecasting, it's essential to understand that Northern Lights sightings are never guaranteed.
