You will head out of the bright city lights in Reykjavik and into the surrounding landscape to start your hunt for the elusive Northern Lights. Their spectacular winter show is one of Iceland’s top attractions, and their memorable dancing rays are worth the trip! As your guide takes you through some of the many stunning sites in the region, you’ll hear about the legends and science behind the lights themselves. In the jeep you’ll have the unique flexibility to avoid the crowded spots that the massive tour buses go to, and instead get a better viewing of the sky with front row seats off the beaten path.
