Incredible Sights, Northern Lights and an Epic Adventure with the Auroraman!
All I can say is WOW!! We had the most EPIC adventure with Danny, aka the Auroraman! From start to finish Danny did not disappoint! I don’t even know where to begin because before we even arrived, Danny was amazing! From incredible communication and advice prior to our trip, Danny was always available to answer any questions we had. Then, when our flight from Greenland to Iceland was rescheduled by the airline to the next day and we couldn’t get to Reykjavik in time to get the hand knitted Icelandic sweaters we ordered, I mentioned it to Danny and he offered to pick them up for us so we had them for our trip. That kind gesture meant the world to us since we were so stressed out about the flight cancellation and losing our day in Reykjavik, but Danny was right there, saying don’t worry about it - I’ll take care of it. When we saw him the next day he had our sweaters and welcome treats waiting for us as we began our adventure! Over the course of five days Danny took us on an otherworldly, incredible, epic adventure to celebrate our 25 year anniversary. My husband wanted to visit some off the beaten path/not as touristy places and I wanted to see some of the touristy sights, so Danny created a great combination itinerary for us consisting of a mix of some Golden Circle spots, the South Coast, secret caves, glaciers, moss fields, lava fields, and the Icelandic Highlands! My husband was thrilled to go in the 4x4 Defender on the F Roads! We loved exploring the off the beaten path places. On our last day with Danny, I unfortunately took a bad fall so was unable to complete our last day with Danny, however, once again Danny went above and beyond, coming to our hotel the next day to check on me, along with a surprise of lamb stew and licorice treats! The two things I said I didn’t want to leave Iceland without having! Additionally, though the week proved to give us more rainy weather than not, we didn’t get to see the Aurora on our days with Danny, however, on our last night in Iceland there was a massive solar explosion and Danny called to say “Go outside NOW!” We jumped to our feet to go outside to an incredible spectacle of Lady Aurora lighting up the night sky! When the Auroraman says “Go NOW” you go now and you’ll be rewarded! A perfect end to a perfect trip with Danny! Oh, and a total bonus - when we arrived home we received a link of incredible photos Danny took for us! So special! We can’t wait to come back and see the next adventure the Auroraman has in store for us!

Unforgettable tour of Iceland with an amazing guide
Danny gave us an incredible and unforgettable experience for our first trip to Iceland. My husband and I planned a 5 day trip for our anniversary. Because of the short time we had, we wanted to have a private tour. Danny exceeded our expectations. He was thoughtful, friendly, patient, and very enthusiastic about Iceland. We also loved all of his food and lodging recommendations. We tend to get exhausted with most people, but we ended up missing Danny at the end of our trip. If love nature and want a stress free trip that takes you off the beaten path, Danny is your guide. We would absolutely take a tour with him again and hope to do so soon!

Amazing Adventures of Iceland
We spent five days in the North and East of Iceland with Danny as our private guide. He led us to the most enchanting places, making this trip an unforgettable experience. In addition to captivating us with the beauty of Iceland, he captured precious moments of us that we’ll cherish forever. This was Danny’s second time guiding us. He spent four days with us in November 2023 and is an expert at chasing the northern lights! Thank you for this amazing adventure! Tom and Amy

Why this scores 46
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private 5 Day Iceland Adventure with Photos: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.
How much does Private 5 Day Iceland Adventure with Photos cost?
+
Prices start at $19,500 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 Private 5 Day Iceland Adventure with Photos take?
+
Plan for about 120 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 Private 5 Day Iceland Adventure with Photos worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 46 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable outdoors in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private 5 Day Iceland Adventure with Photos?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Private 5 Day Iceland Adventure with Photos suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private 5 Day Iceland Adventure with Photos?
+
Around 1 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 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private 5 Day Iceland Adventure with Photos 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, Silfra Snorkeling Between Continents Photos Included- Self Drive, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater. 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.
