Very Cool Night!

I did the tour with BusTravel Iceland and the guide's name was Odysseas / Ody. It took some time to see the lights but with some patience, and our guide's instict about where to go and where to stop we manged to see them! Great experience and Odysseas was just a cool person to talk too. Thank you man! - Writing this here also to make sure I reviewed the right tour.

Northern Lights Tour

We saw the Northern Lights. The guide was amusing, amenable and slightly crazy. Great fun and his photos came through by email the following day as promised.

Book this now!

Absolutely amazing tour!! Daniel was extremely knowledgeable, hilarious, and willing to truly chase the lights. Other tours we tried days earlier went to 1 location and gave up. Daniel sought out the best locations based on current conditions & even let us stay later when more lights came out. He also provided hot chocolate and took everyone’s photo making sure they were good pics! 10000/10 tour. If you want your best chance seeing the lights - book this!

Magic 🪄💚

Daniel our tour guide was amazing. He was so knowledgeable. You can tell he loves the northern lights just as much as us tour guests. He took some perfect photos of me and my husband under the lights. It definitely helped that we had the best light show we could have hoped for. We stayed out so much longer because the lights just kept dancing! Thank you Daniel 🪄💚
