After receiving confirmation of your tour departure, your evening begins with pickup from your central Reykjavik hotel by 4x4. Admire Reykjavík’s dazzling illuminations as you leave the city, then soak up the scenery on the drive to your viewing destination, chosen depending on the weather and Aurora forecast to maximize your chances of a Northern Lights sighting.
As you await the appearance of the Lights, make the most of a high-powered telescope to gaze up at the stars and listen as your guide points out the wonders of the solar system, including common star constellations, the Orion nebula, the moon, and even Jupiter.
If you’re lucky, the Northern Lights will also make an appearance and your guide will ensure all participants get a photograph taken against a backdrop of the spectacular light show (included). As the lights dance across the night sky, learn more about the natural phenomenon from your guide, or relax with a hot chocolate and Kleina pastry (included) as you take it all in.
Head back to Reykjavik at the end of your tour for hotel drop-off.
