The trip of a lifetime - Thor was exceptional to work with for this adventure. He is knowledgeable and honest and made our trip a lifetime memory. I cannot thank him enough nor recommend him any higher. This is the trip you want.

Go with Thor! A true expert and delightful person. - I did A TON of research before selecting Iceland in Motion as our guide to search for the Northern Lights. Here’s why you need to go with Thor- quite simply- he’s a pro. He studies the various scientific models and KNOWS what conditions produce the best likelihood of you seeing the lights. He also knows where to find the best opening in the sky to see them. He’s very fair- if he doesn’t think they will show- he lets you know- great communication. We thought our cloudy night would be a failure so at our time to leave, he was not sure it would be worth it. We opted to cancel. But 2 hours later he emailed me and said he thought maybe south of the airport we would find them. We said no thanks. Too late. But then quickly changed our mind and he picked us up at our hotel 30 minutes later! Let the adventure begin! He is so knowledgeable and wants you to have a great experience. He is as excited to see the lights as you are! After a drive, we peeled off the highway to a side road and then to the beach. He set up my son’s new canon camera on a tripod- Thor is an expert photographer too so he knows how to get your settings straight for the best results. And they appeared!!!! We were the only hunters out that night and we cannot thank Thor enough. He is the most thoughtful talented guide. I would recommend him again and again. Our photos are of the lights on a night when the chance of the Aurora appearing was a 1 out of 10. It looks like daylight due to the full moon which really helped the camera with the lighting. My iPhone was able to capture shots too but if you don’t have a “real” camera, Thar brings his for the trip. Thor’s experience, knowledge and perseverance delivered!

Fantastic photos and knowledge of the northern lights! - This was a once in a lifetime experience, and I’m not sure it would’ve been without the help of Thor! He is extremely knowledgeable about the precise timing of when the lights will show, and it shows. He’s so knowledgeable and we’re very grateful we used him for this tour. Also, the pictures he took of us were jaw-dropping. It’s really worth the price to have both the memories and the photos forever. Thank you so much, Thor!

I want to do it again !!! Thank you Thor ! - Thor was simply amazing, the chances were so low, cloudy night. Yet, Thor managed to find a nice window of opportunity where the lights and vista opened up to me and my wife. He went out of his way to make us feel comfortable, the wind doesn't feel so cold anymore. Thank you Thor ! p.s.: There is even a song about Thor and the northern lights !!

All hail Thor, the king of the northern lights!! - We came to Iceland specifically to see the northern lights. Our first scheduled tour with another company got cancelled. And based on what we learned from other travelers, pretty much all tours were getting cancelled every night due to weather. Then we found Thor!! He let us know that chances of seeing lights were low, but if we still wanted to go he would take us. SO glad we did! He is a true light hunter and methodically checked the forecast, radars, etc to figure out where to take us for the best chances. And he found them!! We watched a spectacular show in the sky, and he took incredible photos for us with his professional camera. We ended up seeing the lights in three different locations and he stayed out very late with us to ensure that we saw as much of the lights as possible and got all the photos we wanted. If you are going to try and see the lights drop everything and only book Thor!!

Excelent - Just want to share my experience as might help. We just returned from Iceland. My dream was to see the Northern lights since forever so as you imagine was very important for me to see them. Our chances were kind of low as was cloudy almost every night. We took a bus tour, but not only we didn't see anything but was not what we were hoping for so did not rebooked it. Our last chance of seeing was the last night so we decided to go with a more private tour, although more expensive but when you think how much you spend to see the lights and disappointment of not seeing them is not worth it. So we took the tour with Iceland In Motion and we had the most amazing time. Thor knows what he's doing and if there is something on the sky he'll find it for sure. He took us to a very nice area and moved like 3 times every time they faded for us to see a bit more. So, don't go cheap on NL tours, do on everything else but follow your dream😁

Hunting for Northern Lights - We had a fantastic adventure with our Guide Thor who was so knowledgable in everything to do with the Northern Lights. He explained very clearly why the lights appear and then made sure that we were in a place to take photos of them. Thor had a deep knowledge which he imparted to us which allowed us to learn so much about how to photograph the aurora Borealis. Loved the trip and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone looking to experience magical moments under the Aurora.

Northern Light! Must See! - Our guide was amazing, friendly, knowledgeable about northern lights, patient, well informed and extremely patient.

Don’t waste your time with other companies, BOOK THOR! - We used Thor for two tours: Northern lights and Small Group Valley of Tears. I cannot recommend Thor enough. Specifically for the Northern lights, Thor is knowledgeable, funny, and knows where to find the lights. Thor is local, so it feels like you’re getting a personal tour rather than from a big company that just wants to get you in and out. Although he is more expensive than some other Northern lights tour, he is absolutely worth it. On a night where it was harder to find the lights due to cloud cover, Thor found an amazing spot and we saw a full show. The Hot Chocolate and Rum were the icing on the cake. Do not waste your time on other cheaper bigger group options, Thor is the way to go. I also cannot suggest Thor’s Valley of Tears tour (it was the highlight of our trip), but will post a review on that on that actual tour page!

Fantastic Northern Lights tour - Thor and Iceland in motion were truly excellent. His communication was great and honest. He kept in touch prior to our arrival and when we met him he was exactly as expected, friendly and knowledgeable about the all important northern lights. He managed expectations but also needn’t have worried as the lights we saw were absolutely amazing! We had a very very lucky night. He also took professional photos and sent them out that very same evening/next morning so we had them straight away. He had hot chocolate and Icelandic spirits to keep us warm and we could sit in the vehicle when we got too cold with furious knocking on the windows for when we should jump outside again. We were on a small group tour and he takes a maximum of 6 in his jeep. We only had 4 of us and it felt like a very personal tour. I can’t imagine anyone better for these trips and we felt both lucky to have seen such amazing lights dance across the sky and to have found such an incredible tour guide! Thanks Thor for being such a great host and for a great great evening.
