About this experience
↓
Witness Iceland's most iconic natural spectacle on a fully private aurora experience departing from Reykjavík. This tour is designed for groups of any size — from a solo traveller to a party of 57 — with the vehicle matched to your exact headcount, whether that means a car, minibus, or full-size coach.
Your professional guide speaks Chinese, English, Polish, or Spanish and tracks real-time aurora activity and cloud cover throughout the evening. Rather than following a fixed route, the guide selects viewing locations dynamically based on conditions, steering clear of crowded spots to keep the atmosphere intimate and unhurried.
Along the way, enjoy warm drinks — hot chocolate or hot water — while your guide explains the science behind the Northern Lights. At each stop, the guide is on hand to help you capture the aurora on camera, offering practical tips for both smartphones and dedicated cameras.
The entire experience is exclusive to your group, giving you full control over pace and atmosphere. Should the aurora fail to appear, you receive a free re-try on the next available evening at no additional cost.
