5.00An amazing experience last October! Alex was very knowledgeable, and worked hard to find us a good spot. It was quiet with a small group and was wicked finally getting to see the northern lights. But even if we hadn't of seen them the stars were mesmerising. Thank you to both Alex and Svein ❤️
Unreliable

1.00Our tour was cancelled supposedly due to weather. However, our ship stayed in port the entire night, and there was no problem with the weather. This tour advertises that they will drive towards the lights to find them, however not if they don’t even try. The tours that were booked through the ship, for the exact same thing, all managed to be completed, AND they did see the Northern Lights. The four of us are greatly disappointed and would think twice about leaving such an important excursion up to them. Very very sad!
Awesome

5.00Fantastic experience. Have been on other northern lights trips in Iceland but don’t come close to this. Small group, provided with warm over suits and moon boots. Camp fire, meal, hot chocolate and a lovely driver and guide provided. Would definitely recommend. Lights were awesome too!! Thanks Klara and Gro
