Northern Lights Minibus Tour from Reykjavík with Hot Chocolate & Photos

We had an amazing tour and the northern lights were better than I could have hoped for!

We didn’t get lucky with the Northern Lights on our night out—too many clouds. BUT the guide tried really hard, drove us around for hours, and shared lots of stories. At least we got to see the stars and some beautiful landscapes at night. We are booked to go again at the end of our trip - used the free reschedule.

We wanted something affordable but still good, and this tour nailed it. Minibus was comfy, guide was knowledgeable, and yes, we saw the lights! Not super strong at first but they got brighter. Can’t complain at all.

Went with my boyfriend and it was super romantic. The group was small and quiet, so when the aurora showed up it felt like it was just for us. Probably my favorite memory from Iceland.

Our guide was honestly the best part—funny, chill, and clearly loved his job. The lights were incredible, but even during the wait he kept us entertained with stories and jokes. Felt more like a night out with friends.

We almost canceled because of clouds, but so glad we didn’t. The driver chased clear skies for over an hour and found this little valley with no clouds. We saw faint pinks and purples too! Felt very lucky.

Okay, it was cold. Like, really cold. But when the lights danced across the sky, I didn’t even care anymore. Our guide had blankets and hot drinks which saved me. My photos turned out amazing.

We took our 10-year-old and 13-year-old and they LOVED it. The guide explained the lights in a way they understood and even pointed out Orion’s belt. My youngest fell asleep on the ride back, which tells you how cozy the minibus was.

The Northern Lights have been on my bucket list forever. I was worried the weather would ruin it, but our guide knew exactly where to go. Standing out there in the quiet with green lights overhead… it’s something I’ll never forget.

I liked that it was a small group. We all got chatting in the van, which made it fun. Felt way less touristy than being crammed into a huge coach. When the lights finally appeared, everyone cheered like kids.

We drove around for a while before the lights showed up, and honestly I thought we’d be unlucky. Then BOOM—the sky just exploded with colors. It was freezing but the hot chocolate helped a lot. Bring gloves!

I didn’t think we’d actually see them, but our guide was super determined. He kept checking the sky and finally found a spot with clear skies. The lights started faint, then turned into these crazy green waves across the whole sky. Totally worth staying up late.

This was our first time trying to see the lights. The minibus was cozy, the guide was friendly and very patient. While the lights took a bit to show, when they did it was spectacular. We felt like we got into just the right spot.

We were picked up in Reykjavik, driven into the countryside away from city lights, and then saw the Northern Lights dancing overhead. The guide was great—warmed us up with hot chocolate, pointed out constellations, and shared stories. Totally worth it.

We were lucky to catch the Northern Lights, and it was a breathtaking experience! Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and kept the group entertained. Highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting Reykjavik—it’s a night you won’t forget!

Ho appena partecipato al tour in minibus per vedere l'Aurora Boreale, e devo dire che è stata un'esperienza indimenticabile! La serata è iniziata con una guida esperta che ci ha fornito informazioni interessanti sui fenomeni naturali e sulle tradizioni legate all'aurora.Abbiamo visitato diversi luoghi incantevoli, lontano dalle luci della città, per aumentare le nostre possibilità di avvistare le luci danzanti nel cielo. Quando finalmente sono apparse, è stato semplicemente magico! Le sfumature di verde e viola che danzavano nel cielo notturno sono un ricordo che porterò per sempre nel cuore.Il minibus era comodo e accogliente, e il piccolo gruppo ha reso l'atmosfera molto più intima e personale. Inoltre, ci sono stati offerti bevande calde e snack, il che è stato un tocco molto apprezzato mentre aspettavamo l’aurora.Consiglio vivamente questo tour a chiunque desideri vivere la magia dell'Aurora Boreale in Islanda. È un'esperienza che non dimenticherò mai!

We did the Northern Lights tour twice. The first night we saw a sky full of stars but didn't see the lights. We went again the second night with Esther. She was a wonderful driver and guide., and eventually we did see the magical Aurora! Would highly recommend the tour to all.
