Private Northern Lights Tour

Summary Description

On this comfortable private tour, you can admire nature’s phenomena without the crowds of people. Our experienced guide will find the best spot, far from the light pollution, to maximize your chances of catching the Northern Lights!

Highlights
  • The Northern Lights
  • Hot chocolate and Icelandic pastries
  • A very comfortable luxury vehicle
Description

It is no wonder the Northern Lights are at the top of many people’s bucket lists; they are quite the sight. Icelanders themselves never tire of seeing them.

As the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, we sadly cannot guarantee their sighting. Apart from solar storms, we need clear skies or at least semi-clear.

If the Aurora forecast is ok based on our judgment, our expert guides will take you on an exciting hunt for the Northern Lights if the conditions are right. You will be picked up from your hotel in a luxury car, and then we will take you to the best possible location to see them, away from the city’s light pollution and preferably in beautiful surroundings for our photos.

We ensure to warm you up with hot chocolate and a taste of Icelandic pastries. Please get in touch with us if you want to visit the Aurora Basecamp during your tour.
