Tour Details
Join a tour on a magical journey to chase the Northern Lights. With the right conditions and a little luck, you may witness one of nature’s most spectacular displays: the Aurora Borealis.
About the Experience
Watching the Northern Lights dance across the night sky is unforgettable. This tour takes you far from Reykjavík’s city lights to the best viewing spots for the aurora’s swirling ribbons of color.
Iceland sits directly beneath the Auroral Oval, the most active region for Northern Lights activity in the Northern Hemisphere, making it one of the best places on Earth to witness this natural wonder. Here, the aurora is potentially visible from anywhere in the country.

Ever wondered what the inside of a volcano looks like? This extraordinary tour takes you deep inside a dormant volcano, through its top crater and down into the vast magma chamber that once blazed with molten lava.
About the experience
Your journey begins with a scenic 3.5 km hike (around 45 minutes) across uneven volcanic terrain to reach the crater. From there, you’ll descend 120 meters into the heart of Þríhnúkagígur via an open cable lift.
Inside, you’ll find a space the size of three basketball courts, large enough to fit the Statue of Liberty. Here, molten magma once swirled during an eruption, but instead of collapsing (as most magma chambers do), this one drained completely — leaving behind a breathtakingly empty “plumbing system” unlike almost anywhere else on Earth.
This is one of the few places in the world where you can step inside a volcano’s magma chamber, a rare geological wonder.
