Absolutely marvelous - The tour guide very kind and profesional. He explained very clearly the phenomenon of the northern lights. He looked for the better spot to have a great look at the Auroras. The hot chocolate and blankets were a super plus in the tour.

Been blessed to see the Northern lights. Amazing - Amazing trip. Our tour guide Saevar was so good. He went an extra mile to extend our time so we can have extra time to enjoy the Northern lights. The coco & bread were lovely too.

Unforgettable experience - We booked the tour rather last minute based on local guide’s recommendation. East West was accommodating and we were about to join the tour with no fuss. Our guide Sævar is very knowledgeable, I had learnt so much about northern lights through the 3-hour trip, where we caught some spectacular light show — said to be the best in September. It was an unforgettable moment, and S’s dedication just made it a better experience. I would strongly recommend everyone to go with them.

Great Northern Lights tour experience with Gummi - Gummi was a great guide during our tour and made sure that everyone was accommodated. After driving away from the city for 45 minutes or so, we arrived at a spot to wait for the northern lights. Gummi gave us some sky navigation tips and then it was time to wait - but not for long. After about 20 minutes or so, the lights arrived and were beautiful.Gummi took photos of all of us and shared the photo link with us afterward. He had quite the sense of humor - all of our guides did; which made for enjoyable experiences as well.

A Fun Night - Our guide, Ionuf B was so helpful - he found us a great dark spot to see some truly amazing lights. The hot chocolate and blankets were welcome! We also had some great photos sent to us. All in all in all a great tour.

Looking for Northern Lights Tours, go with EastWest - Absolutely 150% happy with this tour and our guide, Baldvin. To begin with this is a local tour agency. We received an email from EastWest a couple of hours before tour to confirm, then another email showing a pic of the vehicle, our guides name and the vehicle license number. We loved that they use Mini Buses which hold 19 max (so much better than the large buses others use). Baldwin showed up promptly at the time given. He was knowledgeable, so friendly and determined to try and give us a night to remember. He took us to spots away from the crowds and various spots until we got the views we wanted. He also took numerous photos of us and just the lights and then sent us a link for our own use. I would highly recommend this company and this guide to anoyone wanting a chance to see the Northern Lights!!

Very Disappointing Tour - Whilst I did not mind that we weren’t able to see the light as this is expected, I was disappointed that the company went ahead on an evening with little expectation of seeing anything. The pre tour communication was good and timely pick up but for the price we were charged I’d expect more than 1 hour drive, then driver stopped to look through camera then we went for a toilet stop drive 15 more minutes then he pulled over on the side of the road and announced there was nothing to see then proceeded to hand out a drink and small pastry then drive back to Reykjavik - 4 hours only getting out of bus go to toilet was not value for money Again it’s not that we didn’t get to see the lights but this was a much more expensive tour than others and didnt live up to the advertising
