Reykjavík: Northern Lights Super Jeep Small-Group Tour
Pickup included · 4 hours
Chase the Aurora Borealis on this intimate evening tour from Reykjavík. Groups are capped at 19 guests, with hotel pickup included, complimentary hot chocolate, Icelandic pastries, woollen blankets, and free photos if the lights appear.
The Aurora Borealis is one of nature's most spectacular displays, and this small-group evening tour from Reykjavík gives you the best possible chance of witnessing it in comfort. With a maximum of 19 guests per departure, the experience stays personal and unhurried, far from the crowds.
Each tour is planned around the latest weather and aurora forecasts, so the guide selects the most promising viewing locations on the night. Routes adapt in real time — part of what makes chasing the Northern Lights an adventure in itself.
On board the minibus you will find complimentary Icelandic wool blankets, hot chocolate, and traditional pastries to keep you warm between stops. Free WiFi and USB charging ports are also available throughout the journey.
If no aurora is visible during your tour, you are welcome to join another departure free of charge, subject to operator availability. Note that sightings can never be guaranteed regardless of forecast conditions.
Hotel pickup is included from designated meeting points across Reykjavík. On the day of your tour, check your email in the afternoon for confirmation that the tour is operating.
Final available pickup options are selected during checkout and may vary by operator.
Your evening begins with hotel pickup from a designated meeting point in Reykjavík. Your driver-guide monitors aurora forecasts and weather conditions to choose the best viewing locations for that specific night.
Once you reach a dark-sky location away from city light pollution, you will have time to watch, photograph, and simply take in the Northern Lights if they appear. The guide will assist with camera settings where possible.
The tour runs at night. Dress warmly in layers, and bring a hat, gloves, a scarf, and waterproof outer clothing. Restroom facilities outside urban areas are very limited.
This tour stands out for its small-group format — no more than 19 guests — which means your guide can be flexible, choosing quieter and darker locations that larger coaches cannot access.
The included hot chocolate, pastries, and Icelandic wool blankets mean you stay comfortable even on cold nights, while free onboard WiFi keeps you connected throughout. Complimentary photos are shared after the tour when conditions allow, so you can focus on the experience rather than your camera settings.
The operator's free-rebooking promise — another departure at no extra cost if no lights are seen — reflects genuine confidence in the experience they deliver.
