Private Northern Lights Exploration tour gives you a unique opportunity to enjoy the spectacle of the Northern Lights on your own terms and gives you direct access to our expert guide.
The Northern Lights Tour is a hunting experience. To go into the dark, frozen winter night and observe an unbelievable display of color, light, and texture, is like waking up in a fairy-tale, full of mystery and magic.
We pick you up at your accommodation in Reykjavík and drive out to the countryside away from electric glow and city sounds. The tour is a private excursion where you control the time spent on each location, in collaboration with your guide.
