Itinerary
1. Your Northern Lights hunt kicks off with an evening pick-up from your chosen spot in the Reykjavik area. Leaving the city behind, you'll escape light pollution and head into the quiet Icelandic countryside for the best chance to see the magical auroras. Our expert guide will scout out the perfect spot with the least cloud cover and highest KP index values. Get ready for an unforgettable adventure under the shimmering Arctic sky! Our hunt may take up to 4 hours depending on the conditions but we will make sure to do our best to find them.
2. Once we find the perfect spot, you'll have the chance to witness the epic Northern Lights in all their glory. Picture a neon green glow lighting up the sky, sometimes shifting to pinks and purples, depending on the KP index. The shapes, colors, and brightness are always changing, so no two views are ever the same. Imagine waves of vibrant colors shimmering and dancing across the night sky, creating a mesmerizing, otherworldly show that feels like a magical, celestial ballet. It's a natural performance that will leave you absolutely in awe. While enjoying this incredible spectacle, you'll stay cozy with warm blankets, hot chocolate, and some sweet chocolate treats.
