    About this experience

    Come with us on a hunt for the Northern Lights with just a few other people so that you can enjoy it to the fullest & get the most personal service possible. We focus on personal and fun experiences, combined with photography by the guide so that you can take home the memories, and the guide will tell you stories of the Vikings, the settlement and history of Iceland, the Norse gods & the mythological stories, and learn more about the trolls & elves found here in Iceland. Luck is always a factor when hunting the aurora in Iceland. Even if all the conditions seem perfect, nature can be fickle, and the northern lights still may not show, in the case you do not see the lights, we will offer you a free-of-charge retry (subject to availability). We reserve the right to cancel the tour at any moment, and for any reason, such as weather conditions & forecast, lack of participation, technical issues, etc.

    Chasing the Northern Lights, Finding Something More

    If you’re looking for an unforgettable experience—this is it. It is not possible to recommend the company enougt. The trip was absolutely incredible, and there’s something almost magical about the “Magnus factor,” which genuinely seems to boost your chances of catching the northern lights dancing across the sky. One of my favorite moments? Sipping rich, delicious hot chocolate made with a special ingredient you can truly feel—heart. It’s those little touches that make everything so memorable. From the very first moment until the very end, I felt completely cared for, relaxed, and in the best hands possible. This wasn’t just a tour—it was an experience crafted with passion. And when I come back (not *if*, because thanks to Magnus I know I will), there’s no question—Norse Adventures will be the only company I trust with my next journey.

    The best night and best host !

    We had an incredible night hunting for the northern lights. Magnus is a brilliant story teller and was such a delightful host and guide for us. We had the best time, full of laughs and sharing stories, and yes, we caught the northern lights on the most beautifully clear night. The sky was glowing with starlight and the northern lights made a lovely little show for us which Magnus captured with his amazing photography. Me and my friend were so pleased! A special mention for some yummy home made hot coco !

    Northern Lights Jeep Tour - Icelandic Guide | Photos | Cocoa: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.

    How much does Northern Lights Jeep Tour - Icelandic Guide | Photos | Cocoa cost?

    +

    Prices start at $169 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reykjavik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Northern Lights Jeep Tour - Icelandic Guide | Photos | Cocoa take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reykjavik is not rushed.

    Is Northern Lights Jeep Tour - Icelandic Guide | Photos | Cocoa worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 35 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Northern Lights Jeep Tour - Icelandic Guide | Photos | Cocoa?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Northern Lights Jeep Tour - Icelandic Guide | Photos | Cocoa suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Northern Lights Jeep Tour - Icelandic Guide | Photos | Cocoa?

    +

    Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reykjavik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reykjavik and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Northern Lights Jeep Tour - Icelandic Guide | Photos | Cocoa start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reykjavik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Reykjavik?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Reykjavik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater, Reykjavík Small group Walking Tour - by CityWalk. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Reykjavik?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Reykjavik?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
