WOW — the Northern Lights really danced for us! Definately worth booking a tour! - WOW — the Northern Lights really danced for us! Considering one can see the Northern Lights from nearby spots in Reykjavik, I wasn’t sure a tour was worth it — but being taken to pitch-dark, no-light-pollution spots and not having to worry about driving made it absolutely worth every second! Plus, our guide was great, taking us away from clouds and light pollution to the perfect spot. He shared stories and insights that made the experience so much more personal. I loved the small group vibe — cosy, unrushed, and intimate. And, you get to feel the awe with a group of fellow travellers. Highly recommend!

A passionate and expert guided experience - We went out with Solvi thinking we were unlikely to see anything due to cloud cover and lower solar activity but he expertly found us a hole in the clouds and showed us what to look for leading to a magical evening. We would not have been able to see the lights without him!

It was a beauty! - The tour was amazing, all the guides were so well informed about the weather and aurora forecast. With extremely heavy rains and the climate was not in the favour yet the guide could assess and shows use the best view of millennia. I had also made a request for some photos which Ingunn (Inga) made it happen. Inga was completely knowledgeable and knew each and every detail about Northern Lights, history of Reykjavik. She kept us entertained throughout the journey. Patrick was the best driver for our bus and

The bus never came. - We called before and asked where the pick up was. They said The hotel. We waited 20 min outside The hotel. We called again and they referred us to bus stop 9. No apologize Nothing. We waited again 20 min before calling them. They order us a pick up bus to the station in reyjkavik where we need to change bus. We waited 1 hrs. Freezing cold. No compensation not even a apologize. NOT OKAY. Do not choose this company.
