Book Your Magical Once in a Lifetime Experience!
Stunning - but Dress Warm! - Absolutely stunning. I cannot use any other words. Great communication from the company - we were given a window of 10 minutes for our pickup time so that... read more we did not have to stand in the cold any longer than necessary. Pick up was on time and right where we were told to be.
We headed out into the country with Tomas. He explained how the Northern Lights are formed and measured. It was an easy drive to start the night.
Make sure to dress warm and when you think you have enough clothes, take more because once the lights start you won’t want to go back inside.
Our tour moved 3 times and we all got amazing pictures! The Northern Lights were stunning but we got our picture with the Northern Lights - something I had never seen before. 5/5 isn’t high enough of a rating for this tour!!

Cold but wonderful experience - We had a great evening with Siggi on this trip. The lights were dancing over Reykjavik as we left the city, they toyed with us for a while then disappeared.... read more Siggi’s knowledge and skills in reading all the data meant we stayed put and at 11:30, just when he said they would, they came back and treated us to a super display. The lights looked like white rolling clouds in the night sky and you didn’t really see the colour until you took your photos, but watching them roll and move above us, even in monochrome, was fantastic and then the photos brought them to life.
Be aware it gets REALLY cold out of the city at night, we got to -9 and it was bitter, the minibus is available for warm ups and Siggi always shouted when there was something to see. The hot chocolate he provided at 11:30 as we watched the lights dance above us was heavenly, a great experience and we learnt a lot about the lights too. He takes loads of photos with slow exposure and sends them after the trip, so you get some great professional shots as well as your own efforts. Wrap up super warm and enjoy!

The Best Northern Lights Tour - The guide was highly knowledgeable about the Northern Lights phenomenon and very enthusiastic. He was also an excellent photographer, using the very best equipment. During this trip I used... read more three different companies for Northern Lights tours, and this was the best. Another thing that set this tour apart is that it started at 9:00 pm, while the others started at 8. The Northern Lights are likely to be strongest starting around 11:00, so later is usually better. I would definitely choose this company again.

Spectacular service, spectacular auroras - Our guide Thomas picked us up from the appointed bus stop in Reykjavik on time. We drove east toward the national park in search of a good viewing spot. Luckily... read more the sky was cloudy free. Our first views were modest but after several spots we were treated to amazing views of gray-green auroras spanning the sky in an arc and slowly moving over time. After a lot of trial and error we were able to capture images even on our phones. Thomas however went above and beyond to set up his own camera (on a tripod to facilitate the long exposures) to take images of each group at several sites. These were shared with us several days later via Dropbox and were absolutely amazing! At the last stop we also enjoyed hot chocolate ! I would suggest preparing for this trip by wearing many layers of warm clothing as it was bitter cold and windy. I highly recommend this trip - it was fantastic in all respects. While someone could drive on their own it was so nice to have an experienced guide to find optimal locations and to provide expert photography !
