This special tour, hunting the Northern Lights, occurs during some of the most spectacular months of the year in Iceland. The snow capped landscape in the extraordinary light is wonderful and even more special when you see the Aurora Borealis.
Most tour companies usually accommodate their clients in Reykjavik and then organise day tours out into the countryside, restricting the holiday to 4 or 5 days.
This is not a Jóna’s way of organising a Northern Lights trip! In fact as far as Jóna knows, her tour company is the only one which circumnavigates Iceland in the winter time, an exciting adventure in itself.
This is a ten day tour, travelling through the West to the North, East and South of Iceland, with many visits and plenty of variant winter landscapes to see along the way. In fact, many more chances of seeing the Aurora Borealis, whilst staying at isolated hotels deep in the countryside.
