Highlights
  • Reykjavik Outventure - After being picked up in the Reykjavik Capital Area, we will head out of the city away from any light pollution to the best location , chosen on the day, for visibility of the evening. We sometimes need to wait for the Northern lights to appear, and even change location over the evening. The guide is always in contact with our office and other locals for details on where the visibility is best each evening in case they need to change location. We always try to go where the crowds are not, but can not always guarantee that others looking for the Northern lights will not show up at the same spot.

  • On-board WiFi
  • The best cinnamon buns in Iceland
  • Accommodation pickup & drop-off service

Amazing Northern Lights trip - Fantastic night hunting for the Aurora with our very friendly guide John. We really thought we would not see anything, but John didn't give up, and eventually we were so lucky and found them, which was AMAZING! It was soooooo cold, and I thought I would lose my fingers to frost bite from holding my camera for so long in the biting wind, but the amazing light show was worth it. We watched them for probably about 45 minutes, but the time seemed to go so fast. To see the Northern Lights was one of our bucket list wishes, and we were not disappointed. Great trip and highly recommended. Thank you John

Amazing tour - Loved the tour. Guides, Jón & Kamil, did an amazing job at getting us the best spot for the lights. Great activity that night. And that hot chocolate and cinnamon bun were some of the best we’ve ever had. You’ll have a blast.

Going again! - Palli was such an excellent guide! We were lucky to have good activity and fortunate that he made “one last quick stop” for us to see our best aurora of the night! I woke up so excited that I booked a second trip with them again for tonight!

10 out of 10! - Do this tour! It was great, not on a huge bus which was nice. Our driver John spotted the lights about 10 minutes in and quickly found a dark spot and we got amazing photos. We were really lucky with the weather and the hot chocolate was really good. You can tell the guides care and were really patient with everyone’s photos.

Guides enthusiasm for finding the lights is extraordinary - We had immediate success in finding the lights. Our guide was extremely helpful in coaching us on how to see the lights and photograph the lights. Guni’s enthusiasm for the lights we found made the experience. Tip make sure your iPhone is well charged , as the camera is very helpful in spotting the lights and capturing them.

Determined to see the northern lights! - I did not see the northern lights my first night, so I was feeling really discouraged due to the weather not being the best for them while I was visiting Iceland. Thankfully, on my second night we went out and even though the weather was looking worse than the day before, our gude was DETERMINED to find them for us. Magnus the Viking, yes VIKING, originally informed us that he could not promise we would find them, but after being parked and seeing a little glimmer of hope, he told us that we were going to see them (bold move, but it was true!! LOL). It was not the strongest northern lights, but I also went in March and the weather was very cloudy that week, so I am soooo thankful I got to see them!

Northern Lights Tour - John the driver was great, very enthusiastic as we chased the right spot to view the Northern Lights. Would have been a five out of five had the mini bud been cleaned. Looking out the windows was dire. Hot choc to die for!

Denied Refund when not seeing the light. - We did not get to see the Northern Light on the trip. Despite the low KP value and cloudy sky, the tour still proceeded to drove 3 hours in the wilderness as opposed to cancel the trip. We trusted their professional judgment but they disappointed us. I agree there are factors out of their control and they did offer another trip the next day. We did not take this option because we are leaving the country the next day., When we requested a refund it was denied. Very disappointed of the experience.
