The experience

About this tour

Join us for an adventurous drive through the Icelandic countryside as we hunt the magical aurora borealis! Your guide will pick you and your group up from your accommodation in the early evening before sunset and you will set out in the direction of the clearest skies before nightfall. The Northern Lights can only appear wherever there is no cloud cover, so the places we go to will always vary but can include locations such as the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, the Reykjanes Peninsula, or the famous South Coast!

Throughout this tour, your guide will also be your photographer. Meaning that they will take photos of you during this magical experience. After the tour is over, we will edit your photos and send them to you for you to keep as a memory of your epic adventure!

Please note this tour is tailored to you and the daily conditions. Your guide may call you and adjust the pickup time accordingly to maximise your experience. If we do not encounter Northern Lights refunds or rebooking is not automatic as your guide will provide you with epic night photography in any conditions.
