Tour description
Private Northern Lights Tour by Super Jeep in Iceland
Private Northern Lights Super Jeep Tour from Reykjavík
Experience the wonder of the Aurora Borealis on a private Super Jeep adventure with your own local Icelandic guide.
Designed for couples, families, or small groups, this exclusive tour combines comfort, flexibility, and the thrill of exploring remote winter landscapes near Reykjavík — far from city lights and crowds.
Our powerful Super Jeeps are specially equipped for Iceland’s winter conditions, allowing us to reach off-the-beaten-path viewing areas that standard vehicles simply can’t access.
Each night, your guide carefully selects the route based on the latest weather and solar forecasts to give you the best possible chance of seeing the Northern Lights.
While waiting for the Aurora to appear, enjoy hot chocolate, traditional Icelandic treats, and warm blankets beneath the Arctic sky. When the lights begin to dance above, your professional photographer-guide will capture beautiful photos of you and your group with the Aurora glowing in the background — a perfect keepsake of your Iceland experience.
Throughout the evening, your guide shares stories about Icelandic nature, folklore, and the science behind this spectacular phenomenon.
Between stops, relax in the warmth and safety of your Super Jeep, fitted with studded tires and independent heating.
We continuously monitor weather and solar activity, and if conditions aren’t favorable, you may reschedule or receive a full refund.
If no lights are seen, you can join one additional small-group Northern Lights tour free of charge for another chance.
For rebooking or more information, please contact us at info@highlandsoficeland.is
We offer this tour from the 1st of September to 30th of April.
