About this tour
Our Northern Lights tour will take you on a hunt for this spectacular natural phenomenon. During the winter months the Northern lights, also known as Aurora Borealis, can appear on the nights sky. The guides on this tour have much experience in predicting weather conditions and will do their best to provide you the Northern Lights experience you are hoping for. To increase our changes of finding Northern lights, the tour will be operated by Super Jeep
Join us on a 3-4 hour private Northern Lights adventure, where the magic of the Icelandic sky comes alive in breathtaking displays of swirling lights. Departing at 8 PM, this exclusive tour takes you far from the usual tourist routes in a powerful and comfortable Super Jeep, offering you a unique opportunity to chase the Northern Lights in style. The journey begins as we drive into Iceland’s wilderness.
Our Super Jeep allows us to reach remote areas that larger buses cannot access, giving you a front-row seat to one of nature’s most awe-inspiring phenomena. Whether it's a vast open field or a hidden spot tucked away from the light pollution, we’ll find the perfect location for viewing the Aurora Borealis in its full glory. As you gaze up at the starry sky, the vibrant colors of the Northern Lights will dance overhead, creating an unforgettable moment.
Your experienced guide will not only navigate the best locations to maximize your chances of seeing the lights but also provide fascinating stories and insights about the Aurora Borealis. You’ll learn how this incredible phenomenon occurs, as solar particles interact with the Earth's magnetic field, lighting up the sky in brilliant shades of green, pink, and sometimes purple. These electrically charged particles create stunning patterns of swirling light, and our guide will explain how different factors, like solar activity and the Earth's atmosphere, contribute to these displays.
For photography enthusiasts, this tour is an excellent opportunity to capture professional-level photos of the Northern Lights.
The solar winds that create the auroras are unpredictable, but with our expert team and high-tech Super Jeep, we’ll do everything we can to give you the best chance of seeing them. Even if the conditions are difficult, we’ll continue the chase, adapting our route as needed to find clear skies.
This tour is designed to be intimate and personal, avoiding the crowds of large tour buses to offer a more relaxed, private experience. Whether you're visiting Iceland for a romantic getaway, an adventurous family trip, or simply to cross the Northern Lights off your bucket list, this Super Jeep tour provides a tailored and memorable experience. Let us handle the logistics while you immerse yourself in the awe and wonder of Iceland's natural beauty.
Be prepared for an evening of adventure, comfort, and awe as we venture into the Icelandic night to chase one of the most mesmerizing natural phenomena on Earth. The Northern Lights are more than just a visual spectacle; they are a once-in-a-lifetime experience that will leave you in awe of the beauty of the universe.
The tour is weather dependent, so if the auroras are not expected to be visible, the tour will not run. If you join the tour and the lights do not appear, fear not, you are welcome to join the tour again another night, free of charge.
