Activity description
Embark on an enchanting journey with the Private Northern Lights Tour with complementary professional photos!
One of the most emblematic and sought-after phenomena in the Northern Hemisphere is without a doubt the Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights. Nothing compares to the magic of experiencing this rare natural occurrence in a private setting. An experienced guide will accompany you in small, private groups of 8 people maximum throughout the night; sharing with you stories of old myths and legends, enhancing the mystical aura surrounding the Northern Lights.
To make your tour more special and warm you up while admiring the breathtaking Aurora Borealis, you will be treated a hot chocolate and a cinnamon bun or kanilsnúður, a typical Northern European snack by the fire.
You are more than welcome to bring your camera and tripod to capture the ephemeral beauty of the Northern Lights but this tour also comes with professional, free photographs taken during the tour. This allows you to relax and stop time for a moment as you stand facing the beautiful immensity of Mother Nature.
