Beyond the Northern Lights, these packages often include daytime adventures, such as glacier hikes, Blue Lagoon visits, Golden Circle excursions, and exploring Iceland’s charming towns. The combination of day tours and nighttime aurora hunts ensures your itinerary stays full, exciting, and scenic.
Each Aurora Tour Package is designed to deliver comfort, safety, convenience, and excellent value. While the inclusions may vary, most packages typically offer airport transfers, accommodation, Northern Lights guided tours, thermal gear (when needed), transportation in comfortable vehicles, and optional upgrades such as private guides or photography sessions. Packages also include sightseeing trips to Icelandic attractions, meals, and flexible scheduling based on aurora visibility.
Guests can choose from a wide range of accommodation types—from cozy countryside cabins to stylish Reykjavik hotels. Many countryside hotels provide minimal light pollution and large viewing areas directly from their property, making it easy to catch the lights without travelling at night. Urban stays, on the other hand, offer access to restaurants, shopping, and cultural landmarks while allowing guided tours to transport you to dark-sky destinations.
The guided aurora hunts are the highlight of the package. Professional guides lead you to remote locations known for clear skies and high aurora activity. These guides bring expert knowledge of Icelandic weather patterns, ensuring you move swiftly between viewing points for the best chance of witnessing the lights. Many tours include hot drinks, photography assistance, tripods, and heated vehicles for maximum comfort.
The best time to book your Aurora Tour Package is between late September and April, when the nights are long and dark. Winter months such as December, January, and February offer peak viewing opportunities, though the shoulder months of September, October, March, and April provide milder weather and longer daylight for exploration. Book early, especially during holidays and weekends, as tours often get fully booked months in advance.
