What makes an Icelandic Aurora Stories Tour different from a regular Northern Lights trip?
The Icelandic Aurora Stories Tour is a step out of the ordinary , it is an immersion into the rich tapestry of Icelandic stories which have been passed down for generations. Other tours may put the Northern Lights at the very center of the experience but we take a different approach we include the stories of the past which are as much a part of the landscape here as the natural light show itself. Picture yourself under a sky aglow with light while your local guide spins tales of the Lights which were thought to be signs of fertility, spiritual notes from the ancestors, or guides for old travelers. These stories add a dimension of magic which heightens the experience of the aurora.
Also we have that the Aurora Stories Tour which is of a very personal nature, often we do small groups or private SUV tours which in turn makes each guest’s connection with the guide and the stories very individual. Also many of the tours include hot drinks, local snacks and photo stops to capture the aurora and the warm atmosphere of the night.
This element of culture is what sets our tour apart it takes what may otherwise a simple sightseeing tour to a more academic as well as personal experience. We see for example that in the case of families with kids the stories which we tell spark their imagination and curiosity, at the same time couples find in the mix of lore and the beautiful natural settings a way to deepen the emotional tone of the night.
At present if what you seek is beyond the picture of the aurora, if you are looking to leave with stories which connect you to Iceland’s history and people, the Icelandic Aurora Stories Tour is your best choice. It’s not just the sky which we watch -- instead you step into the traditions of the past for a few hundred years’ worth of experience in the great outdoors.
