What you can expect

See the majestic Northern Lights dance across the Icelandic night sky on this unforgettable tour from Reykjavik. Travel away from the city lights to a specially chosen viewing location, selected each night based on cloud cover and aurora forecasts to give you the best chance of seeing this natural wonder.

Rather than relying on luck, this experience is led by expert guides who track weather and solar activity daily. Their local knowledge significantly improves your odds of witnessing the shimmering ribbons of colour that make the aurora borealis a true bucket-list sight.

Same-day admission to the Aurora Reykjavik Northern Lights Centre is included. We recommend visiting before your tour to explore interactive exhibits, enjoy a virtual reality aurora experience, and watch a captivating time-lapse film — all of which will deepen your appreciation of the lights before seeing them in person.

Pickup is available if selected at booking; otherwise, you’ll meet directly at the tour departure point.

To stay warm under the stars, hot drinks and freshly made waffles are available for purchase at the viewing site.

And if the Northern Lights don’t appear, don’t worry — your original tour voucher remains valid for another tour, free of charge, for up to two years after your original date.

Please note: This tour operates only when conditions are favourable for aurora sightings, based on weather and solar activity.
