Amazing Northern Lights Minibus Tour

3 h
About this activity
Come and experience the incredibly beautiful Northern Lights with professional English speaking northern light chasers in a comfortable minibus; one of the world most astonishing natural phenomena! Our guides in N Iceland Tours have one of the best records in tracking northern lights as we are relying on our secret spots and we only decide to go out chasing when we know that the conditions to see the northern lights are favourable. We chase until we find them and rarely give up as no one wants to go back home with empty hands. But of course, one should not deny the strength of Mother Nature and how unpredictable it can be so despite our good record, not seeing northern lights on a tour can happen for everyone. Fortunately, this happens absolute rarely with N Iceland Tours and if you would be among the unlucky ones not seeing anything, do not worry! N Iceland Tours will make sure that you will be rescheduled on a tour without any extra charges.
The northern lights can only be seen from very few places on earth respectively the Northernmost and the Southernmost hemisphere, in which Iceland is considered being the capital city of Northern Lights. Many people from all around the world travel to Iceland to experience this mysterious phenomenon that appears in many different colors such as green, red, purple, yellow and pink. We in N Iceland Tour consider this tour being a 'most-try' adventure!
The tour includes:
• Icelandic treats
• Tea and coffee
• Taste of glacier water
• Blankets
• WiFi
• Pick-up and drop-off with no extra charges.
We will begin the pickup at 20:30 from the hotel and it can take up to 30 min for the guide to arrive depending on the traffic. At around 21:00 the guide will be driving in the Icelandic country side and as we have our different spots both North, East, West and South of Reykjavik, the guide will have decided which spot to chose depending on the clouds, the temperature, the wind direction, wind speed, road condition and light pollution; all being important factors when it comes to chasing the northern lights. The tour usually takes around 3 to 4 hours. You will be dropped off at the bus stops or the hotels when the tour ends. As Iceland is an island situated only few miles from the polar circle and situated in the North Atlantic ocean between to big continents where the Golf Stream runs, the weather can become very unpredictable. It is always an advice to wear very warm clothes. -5 degrees Celsius can easily feel like -20 degrees Celsius due to windchill effects.
N Iceland Tours operates in a minibus to allow better service and more privacy for our clients. It also makes it more easier to get to know people better and we in N Iceland Tours have gotten friends from all around the world! We are looking much forward meeting you!
