Leave the city lights behind and search for the Northern Lights on a private and flexible evening tour from Reykjavík.

Your driver-guide monitors cloud cover, weather forecasts, and aurora activity, choosing the most promising locations based on current conditions. With no fixed route and no large group schedule, the tour can adapt throughout the evening to give you the best possible opportunity to experience the aurora.

What to Expect

The route is selected on the day of the tour according to cloud cover, road conditions, and aurora forecasts.

Depending on the conditions, the journey may take you toward mountains, coastlines, lava fields, or quiet countryside locations away from Reykjavík’s light pollution.

The experience is private, allowing your group to travel at a relaxed pace, spend more time at promising locations, and change direction when conditions require it.
