Highlights

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. 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 private northern lights monster truck hunt 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.

You will return to your Reykjavík hotel around 12am or 1am.

Fantastic but jolly cold! - We were picked up from our Hotel in the most amazing monstrous custom built truck, went on to collect 4 other people before heading off to meet the rest of the Superjeep tour. Our driver ( l am so sorry, l cannot remember your name ) was fabulous. I just love the self deprecating Icelandic humour! We were kept amused all the way. The lights were being very shy that night, which was disappointing, but no-one can control mother nature. The hot chocolate was very welcome as we were freezing our butts off in an icefield. Only wish now that in retrospect l had had some of the Reyko Vodka as well! Please do wrap up super warmly folks, you may be standing in an icefield for 3-4 hours and that is no joke. Forget fashion statements and be sensible. Try not to drink too much before setting off at about 20:00 as there are no toilet facilities, ladies, you will know what l mean, not so difficult for men. Anyway, we enjoyed ourselves despite the Dancing Ladies being shy and not really showing. Superjeep.is has offered a free trip out within the next year as long as we quote our booking number, which is nice. Photos are free and they are happy to provide them for you on Facebook. The trip may not be cheap, but l considered it well worth it, rather than be stuck on a coach with goodness knows how many people. Also the terrain is not really suitable for coaches, especially if you need to go off road to see the lights. Enjoy and happy hunting!
