Leave behind the bright city lights and immerse yourself in the untouched beauty of North Iceland as we venture just outside Akureyri in search of the mesmerizing Northern Lights. This winter holds great promise for spectacular aurora displays, and few places offer a better vantage point than the serene landscapes of the north, where the dark skies provide the perfect backdrop for this natural wonder.

Each evening, our expert guides carefully select the best location for the night’s excursion, using their knowledge of weather patterns and aurora activity to find the clearest skies and most favorable conditions for viewing. Whether we travel to a quiet fjord, a remote mountainside, or an open valley, the goal remains the same—to provide you with the best possible chance to witness the magic of the Northern Lights dancing across the sky.

However, it’s important to remember that the Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon, and while we do everything in our power to increase the likelihood of a sighting, we cannot guarantee that they will appear. Even so, the journey itself, surrounded by Iceland’s breathtaking winter landscapes, makes for an unforgettable experience.

This tour includes comfortable transportation in a 4×4 Jeep, a complimentary pickup service, and English-speaking guide to enhance your experience.

Escape the light pollution of the city and go with us outside Akureyri to see the amazing Northern Lights. The Northern Lights viewings for this winter are looking very promising and there are few better places to see them than in the north of Iceland.

Where we head each night depends on where we think it’s most likely to find clear sky and the best conditions to enjoy the lights.

This might be a long night so we bring hot chocolate to warm you up during the wait for the lights.

We limit the group size to approximately 8 persons per group to be able to give you a better and more personal experience.

The Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon. Sightings cannot be guaranteed even if the tour is operated.

Bring a hat and gloves and wear thick socks.
