Akureyri Northern Light Tour

Get ready for an unforgettable adventure as we whisk you away from your hotel under the cover of night, setting out on a thrilling quest to chase the legendary Northern Lights. Our journey begins in the comfort of a coach or mini bus, but the real excitement starts as we leave behind the glowing city of Akureyri and plunge into the wild, untouched landscapes of rural Iceland. Here, far from the city’s electric glare, the sky becomes our stage. Named after the Roman goddess Aurora, the Northern Lights ignite the heavens in a mesmerizing spectacle – swirling, twisting, and painting the night with vibrant colors and mysterious shapes. 

As we track down this elusive phenomenon, you’ll have plenty of time to capture the magic with your camera. Along the way, you’ll hear tales of ancient Greeks who called these lights the “Dance of the Spirits,” and stories from medieval Europe where they were seen as divine messages. Icelandic folklore whispers of angels twirling across the sky, their flowing dresses weaving these dazzling ribbons of light. Join us on this epic journey, and witness the Northern Lights as explorers and dreamers have for centuries – with wonder, awe, and a sense of adventure.
