How long does the Reykjavik Lights Tour – Private SUV Package usually last?
Reykjavik Lights Tour in a private SUV which usually runs for between 3 to 5 hours, to which weather conditions, visibility, and the level of activity of the Northern Lights play a role.
We include enough time in the tour to:
Get out of the city
Find places with the least light pollution
Be patient for the aurora to show up
Flexibility During the Tour
Your guide will usually be checking in on live reports before and during the trip, which in turn may cause a change to the route – this gives you the best chance of seeing the lights
We may run for up to 5 hours on very promising nights
Should we run into poor visibility, we may scale back the trip a bit but will still do our best to put on a great show
Tailored Private Experience
Unlike large group tours which are very structured, we offer private SUV packages that cater to your group’s every wish.
If your party wants to spend the whole night out at photo spots, the guide will go that route
If after an early show of the lights you see no need for a late return, we will head back at your pleasure
Important Notes
We usually head out at midnight or after
The aurora is a natural wonder, so patience is key
At Enjoy Iceland Tours, we provide a “re run” policy which means if you don’t see the lights on the first go, we’ll get you out again at no cost
