Private Northern Lights Evening Tour

A tailored aurora hunt under Iceland’s winter skies

A winter night in Iceland feels magical, especially when the sky comes alive with shimmering arcs of green and violet. This private Northern Lights experience takes you far from Reykjavík’s glow and into the quiet countryside, where darkness, open horizons, and expert guiding give you the best possible chance of witnessing the aurora.

Your Personal Aurora Hunt

Expert-Led, Fully Flexible

Your guide picks you up from your accommodation and the hunt begins. There’s no fixed route, your guide follows cloud patterns, aurora forecasts, and weather changes in real time, choosing the clearest skies and most promising locations as the night unfolds.

Chasing Darkness & Big Sky Views

Within an hour, the city lights fade behind you, opening into frozen fields, wide plains, and silhouettes of distant mountains. You’ll make several viewing stops through the evening, each selected for ideal visibility and unobstructed northern skies. Your guide will help you capture the lights on camera.

Warm Drinks & Winter Comfort

Northern Lights watching can be cold, so we make it comfortable. Between stops, enjoy:

• Hot chocolate
• Icelandic snacks and sweets
• Soft warm blankets
• A warm, private vehicle

Everything is designed so the wait becomes part of the adventure.
