- Reykjavik - This tour invites you to explore Iceland’s fourth-longest lava tube and witness the enchanting Northern Lights!
Your journey begins with a convenient pick-up from your chosen location in a comfortable minibus. An expert guide will take you to the Raufarhólshellir lava cave, located just 45 minutes from Reykjavík. Here, you’ll spend an hour marveling at the cave’s stunning lava formations and vibrant colors, venturing up to 900 meters (2952 ft) into this underground marvel.
Following this, the tour continues to some of Iceland’s breathtaking landscapes in search of the Northern Lights. If spotted, guides will capture photos, providing you with a memorable picture of yourself with the Aurora Borealis. To conclude the experience, enjoy hot chocolate under the starry sky!
- Raufarholshellir - The first stop is the Raufarhólshellir lava tunnel, where a lava cave expert will join the group. After gearing up and receiving a brief safety overview, the descent into the cave begins. The walk is smooth and enjoyable, featuring a mix of well-constructed paths, footbridges, and some natural terrain to keep it interesting. Suitable for all ages, but be prepared for some uneven ground!
As the group ventures deeper, prepare to be amazed by the vibrant colors adorning the cave walls—emerald greens, fiery reds, bright turquoise, and soft lilacs, all created by volcanic forces. The guide will share fascinating insights into the geological wonders that formed this stunning underground world.
- Iceland - After the guided lava tunnel adventure, the group will board the bus to embark on an exciting search for the Northern Lights. Following the stars, the destination remains flexible based on the latest forecasts. Rest assured, the city lights will be left behind, possibly heading to Þingvellir, Reykjanes, or other hidden gems in South Iceland, where the skies are clearest.
With the convenience of a minibus, access to off-the-beaten-path spots that larger buses cannot reach is possible. To ensure a lasting memory, the guide will take a complimentary photo of you with the aurora. It’s a magical moment to cherish forever!
