🌌 Northern Lights Small Group Tour in Reykjavík – Aurora Viking

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Best Small Group Northern Lights Tour in Iceland | Expert Guides, Live Forecasting & Free Photos

Experience one of the world’s most breathtaking natural events on our Northern Lights Small Group Tour from Reykjavík.
We specialize in real aurora forecasting, small groups, and high-quality photography — giving you the best chance to see the aurora borealis in Iceland.

While other operators follow the crowd, we use live satellite data, cloud maps, solar wind analysis, and years of field experience to choose the best viewing location each night. Our mission is simple:
maximize your chance of seeing the Northern Lights.

⭐ Why Our Northern Lights Tour Stands Out

✓ Small Groups (No Crowded Buses)

More space, a calmer experience, and better photography opportunities.

✓ Real Aurora Forecasting

We track Bz, IMF, solar wind speed, magnetometers, cloud layers and short-term gap movement.

✓ Professional Photos Included

High-quality images of you and the lights, delivered after the tour at no extra cost.

✓ Local Icelandic Guides

Friendly, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about the aurora.

✓ Comfortable Heated Vehicles

Warm, clean minibuses designed for Icelandic winter conditions.

✓ We Don’t Give Up Early

If there’s a chance, we stay longer. Patience = success.

🌌 What You’ll Experience

  • A 3–6 hour Northern Lights adventure

  • Multiple viewing stops based on the best real-time conditions

  • Professional photos throughout the night

  • Science-based explanations of how the aurora works

  • A relaxed, friendly atmosphere with plenty of time to enjoy the sky

  • A true “hunt,” not just a quick out-and-back tour

Whether it’s your first time in Iceland or you’ve been dreaming of the aurora for years, we aim to make this a night you’ll never forget.

📸 Northern Lights Photography Included

Your guide will capture stunning aurora portraits and landscape shots using professional equipment.
Photos are delivered in a private online gallery in full resolution.

🔄 Free Re-Try if No Lights

If we go out and the aurora doesn’t show, you can join another Northern Lights tour with us free of charge (subject to availability).
We want you to have the best possible chance.

📍 Pickup in Reykjavík

We pick up from selected locations in central Reykjavík.
Please be ready at the designated time — winter roads can cause small delays.

🧥 Good to Know (Read Before Booking)

  • Sightings are not guaranteed, as the aurora is a natural phenomenon.

  • Dress warmly — Icelandic nights can be extremely cold.

  • Tours may last longer or change route based on conditions.

  • Our guides never cancel early unless conditions make it impossible.

  • This is the highest-rated Northern Lights tours in Iceland due to our focus on data, patience, and small-group quality.

  • ​Make sure you use the bathroom before going to your pick up location, sometimes we are in a race against nature to get out to dark skies before the aurora bursts.
