NORTHERN LIGHTS JEEP SAFARI

Trip difficulty 2 out of 5 possible. Rated: Easy.

Your pick up will arrive at your hotel in the shape of an enormous Super-jeep with an expert guide at the wheel. The search for the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) is on! We start by exploring the hidden world in and under the lava field located in the Blue Mountains only 25 minutes drive from Reykjavik. Walking down into the lava cave and discovering the marvels that volcanic activity has created in the past is a trip that everyone can undertake and enjoy. On your underworld adventure you will see the magical rock formations left behind in the last volcanic eruption and in winter the cave is likely to be filled with glistening icicles of all shapes and sizes, a sight not soon forgotten.
Tour code: DTJ-77

IMPORTANT NOTE!
The Northern Lights are in the northern sky from September through April but are only visible when the sky is clear and free of clouds. Like many of natures wonders, it’s ephemeral – they may be visible, they may appear for a bit and then be gone (it is not a TV show that you can just turn on and off). But it’s worth the patience required. Because they’re a winter event, you need to be prepared to wait outside, while looking for them. It’s best to dress very warmly, in layers, with good footwear, gloves, hats and whatever else will make you comfortable while you await this truly outstanding event. The Northern Lights can be pretty spectacular, and for the best photos we recommend using a tripod.
Much of Iceland offers a very a good chance to see the Northern Lights when conditions are right, and you’re in the right place. We reserve the right to cancel this tour if the weather conditions & road conditions don't allow to travel. This tour is in general operated even if the evening sky is heavily clouded or weather conditions are not right to see the northern lights. There will be no refund or price reduction if Northern Lights cannot be seen.
When you are booked for this tour, please plan to reconfirm with the hotel reception staff between 16:00-17:00 to determine whether the tour will be operated or not.
Remember – the northern lights are natural phenomena, not guaranteed, but appreciated all the more for their elusive qualities. Please dress most warmly to enjoy Iceland’s long winter nights, and perhaps be rewarded with a light show unlike anything you’ve ever seen!

NORTHERN LIGHTS JEEP SAFARI

On your underworld adventure you will see the magical rock formations left behind in the last volcanic eruption and in winter the cave is likely to be filled with glistening icicles of all shapes and sizes, a sight not soon forgotten.

After our underground adventure we head on to Rauda Husid restaurant in Eyrarbakki village on the south coast where a two course dinner (350 gr. lobster and dessert) is waiting for us. Rauda husid is one of Iceland’s most renowned seafood restaurants especially famous for its lobster dinner, located 60 km from Reykjavik surrounded by the pitch-black Icelandic winter night. From there our hunt continues.

The Auroras can only be seen far away from the city lights and from Eyrarbakki we will not have to travel far until the mountains provide the shadows we need. On cloudless and clear winter evenings, with luck on our side, we may be able to spot this beautiful and elusive natural phenomenon. Vivid and bright, the dancing northern lights in the Arctic skies are a sight to remember.

Please note: Seeing the Northern Lights is highly dependent on weather conditions and we reserve the right to cancel if the circumstances are not in your favour.
