5.00When we set up our trip for Iceland, seeing the Northern Lights was definitely our primary goal. We were disappointed to get canceled the first night we booked due to weather, but appreciate not being out there in the cold with no chance of seeing the lights. Frimann was our guide the second night and took us off-road into beautiful fields and isolated spots. Even before the lights came, the sky was amazing, fully lit up with stars, as we stood in such a desolate area. But when the light started to come, there were cheers from everyone! Really, really a magnificent experience, and we appreciated that Frimann kept us informed as to what he was looking for and facts about the lights all along. Those who go should know to bundle up! Cold enough in Iceland in February, but in the middle of the night, all the colder! Highly recommend this tour!
