The northern lights, or the aurora borealis, are beautiful dancing waves of light that have captivated people for millennia. But for all its beauty, this spectacular light show is a rather violent event. Energized particles from the sun slam into Earth's upper atmosphere at speeds of up to 45 million mph (72 million kph), but our planet's magnetic field protects us from the onslaught. As Earth's magnetic field redirects the particles toward the poles, the dramatic process transforms into a cinematic atmospheric phenomenon that dazzles and fascinates scientists and sky watchers alike.

The northern lights are visible in Iceland from August through April. During this time, people from all around the world visit Iceland, hoping to glimpse the green and red lights dancing in the sky. Due to the demand, most Northern Lights tours are over-packed and you lose some of the magic in the experience, that's why we created our "Ultimate Northern Lights Tour with All Inclusive and Small Group Guarantee" that only allows maximum group size of 16 passengers when most of the other northern lights tour operators offer 20 to 52 seats in each NL tour. This guarantee helps us create a truly personalized, cozy and memorable touring experience for our guests.

*We are the ONE AND ONLY northern lights operation in Iceland offering warm winter jumpsuits and outdoor chairs on northern lights tours.

Witnessing a natural phenomenon like the Northern Lights can be a life-changing experience, but it is NOT one that is always guaranteed. With meticulous attention to detail, our expert team utilizes highly advanced weather, cloud, and aurora forecasts 24/7, backed by satellite images, to enhance your chances of witnessing the lights. In the rare event that unforeseen circumstances obstruct the view, we offer unlimited re-runs that will be valid for two years from the date of your tour. However, the availability of this free re-run will depend on the tours that are currently scheduled.

We reserve the right to cancel the tour as late as 18.30 pm due to weather not being favorable for us. We make a honest decision and e-mail all our guests on the day of the tour at 18.30pm latest to confirm whether the tour is on or off.

How we measure a Northern Lights sighting / non sighting : If you can see the lights with your own naked eyes or only fainted green line for a short time, that is a northern light sighting. Non sighting could be for example if we can only see the lights through our camera, not with our own eyes.

We do not offer refunds, whether partial or full, for tours where a sighting was not possible.
