Overview

This northern lights tour in Iceland takes you in an original superjeep out of town to avoid light pollution so as to observe this fascinating natural phenomenon also known as the Aurora Borealis. Given clear skies and a little bit of luck, sightings can occur from autumn to spring. The main 4X4 superjeeps are Land Rover Defenders and 6-door Ford Excursions. All are modified with big 40- or 46-inch wheels ready for the mighty challenge the tours offer every day, all year round! The jeeps are equipped with an extra fold-down step for easy accessibility, luxurious leather seats, air-conditioning, WiFi, GPS, first-aid kit, trackwell, and other sorts of security equipment. Behind the wheel on the tours are experienced driving guides that sure know how to maneuver such big jeeps in the wilderness and highways of Iceland. This 4-hour tour has a max of 6 passengers per superjeep.

What to expect

The elders say that the harsher the night‘s frost, the more intense the colors will be. Swirling and swaying overhead, displays are usually greenish-yellow but white, red, and pink lights can also appear.

You will be picked up at your hotel at 8pm or 9pm (depending on the season) and taken out of Reykjavik right away to meet other superjeeps. From there the hunt starts. The direction and the next stop will always depend on the weather and the ‘aurora forecast’. You will be taken to the viewing locations where you are most likely to spot the northern lights. All effort will be made to take photos of you with the northern lights in the background, at no extra charge.

The northern lights superjeep tour is dependent on the weather and sky conditions, and the right is reserved to cancel at any time. If the evening tour goes ahead and the northern lights are not seen, you will be offered to try once again for free! If there is a need to cancel all your nights due to bad weather, you will get a full refund.

Make sure you book your northern lights in Iceland tour for your first night in town in order to maximize your chances of sightings. Please note that the size of your group can grow if there were several nights in a row canceled due to weather. A best effort is given to find northern lights for everyone!

You will return to your Reykjavík hotel around 12am or 1am.

The super jeep is an iconic vehicle of Iceland and the perfect way to get to the best spots to see the aurora. The super jeep team were obviously experienced at finding the lights. Their knowledge of the spectacle kept things interesting and the small group within three super jeeps made it person...

Enjoyed the tour and got to see the northern lights! Only downside was our driver was not super friendly and there was little communication on our way out to lookout spot so the ride was slightly uncomfortable and had no clue where we were going or how long it would take. Once we met up with the ...

Our guides made a commendable effort to show us the Northern lights. Unfortunately our viewing was less than optimal. It just wasn’t the right time. Our guides tried but we saw the faintest glimmer of a little bit of green. Hardly a memorable show. Our guides tried.

This was a magical trip of a lifetime. We were really lucky to see the Northern Lights. The guide was friendly and the Superjeep was an experience in itself. Wonderful experience! Highly recommended!

What can I say! We sped in comfort with Pally to search for the lights. After a slow build up and some sitings we were about to go when the sky lit up and we say the most amazing display. The guides said it was the best for 3-5years. Still recovering. Thanks superjeep!

We got to see the lights! So lucky as this was the only clear night during our trip. Dress very warm as it’s cold and windy where the jeeps go. We only saw the lights at the first location—they didn’t appear at the second location we went to. The hot chocolate and vodka drink was a good warm ...
