The elders say that the harsher the night’s frost, the more intense the colors will be. Swirling and swaying overhead, displays are usually greenish-yellow but white, red, and pink lights can also appear.
You will be picked up at your hotel at 8pm or 9pm (depending on the season) and taken out of Reykjavik right away to meet other superjeeps. From there the hunt starts. The direction and the next stop will always depend on the weather and the ‘aurora forecast’. You will be taken to the viewing locations where you are most likely to spot the northern lights. All effort will be made to take photos of you with the northern lights in the background, at no extra charge.
The northern lights superjeep tour is dependent on the weather and sky conditions, and the right is reserved to cancel at any time. If the evening tour goes ahead and the northern lights are not seen, you will be offered to try once again for free! If there is a need to cancel all your nights due to bad weather, you will get a full refund.
Make sure you book your northern lights in Iceland tour for your first night in town in order to maximize your chances of sightings. Please note that the size of your group can grow if there were several nights in a row canceled due to weather. A best effort is given to find northern lights for everyone!
You will return to your Reykjavík hotel around 12am or 1am.
