Description
The tour is led by Kolbeinn and Emil, the Aurora Viking owners and primary guides with decades of experience locating the Northern Lights. Their expertise maximizes your chances of seeing the aurora, often when others do not.
High-spec cameras are provided to capture professional-quality nighttime photos that guests can keep. Entertainment is an important part of the experience, especially when waiting for the aurora to appear.
During wait times, guests can try on Viking weapons and outfits from a local museum, which often results in memorable photos. Hot chocolate and gingerbread cookies are served to keep guests warm as temperatures drop.
The appearance of the Northern Lights depends on natural conditions and cannot be guaranteed. Aurora Viking offers unlimited free retries if you do not see the lights on your booked night.
Please note, once the tour begins there are no refunds. If no aurora is seen, you can rejoin another tour free of charge.
