Enjoy this 3-5 hours shared tour with a small group of people with the possibility of seeing the Northern Lights. This is the reason for a visit to Iceland during the winter. The season, with its pure and crisp air, offers some of the best conditions for seeing stars and frequent sightings of the Aurora Borealis.

Just got back from our northern lights tour. It was amazing! We got a great view and beautiful pictures of the lights very quickly even though the forecast wasn’t good. Maggi was the perfect tour guide! We can’t say enough great things about him. He helped everyone see the lights and get the best possible pictures. Highly recommend Maggi and this tour. We enjoyed it immensely and made great memories that we’ll never forget. Ps might want to learn about your camera settings before you go on the tour to get the best pictures.

Wow! That's all I can say. Not only did our guide Magnus ("call me Maggi") strike out in a different direction than most of the other guides that night, but he took us to not one, but two, locations where we saw the Lights. The second stop provided us with a breathtaking dome-like light show from horizon to horizon. The small van was warm and just the right size. I will never forget that night!

The second time I have used this company, Maggie (Magnus) was our driver/tour guide.
I had him run my tour 6 years ago. He is a credit to the company! Friendly, knowledgeable & goes out of his way to help you find and take pictures of the northern lights. He even dropped us off closer to our apartment as we were the last people on the bus, which was an absolute life saver at 2am!
Would 100% recommend this company and if you are lucky enough you will get Maggie and his 10 years of expertise! :)

Amazing views and pictures. More than we had hoped for and we probably drove for 15-20 minutes total, leaving plenty of time for pictures and the overall experience. Experienced driver and great photographer for good price.

The tour operator was friendly and courteous. We started out at about 10pm. He tried many different spots but was unsuccessful. However, it was still a good experience. We got blankets, pastry and hot chocolate. Tour operator offered to take us another time if we wanted to try again.

Easy pick up at the bus stop. Magi our guide even rang someone who was missing and went out of his way to collect them before we started our trip. He was knowledgeable and after 4 and a half hours, with no lights he started to drive us back, still looking out for them. Before we knew it there they were right in front of us. We all piled off the bus quickly and got some great shots. It really was a memorable experience. It was a brilliant tour.

We booked an additional Northern Lights tour through our hotel the Centrum as our first tour whilst very good hadt achieved the end result of seeing the Lights. Our guide Maggie was fantastic being very knowledgeable and clearly having a desire to make the experience memorable to us all. My wife has terminal cancer this was one of her bucket list things to do but she is limited in what she can and cannot do Maggie was superb in making her feel comfortable and part of the overall experience. He offered a photo service we didn't feel as if we had to have the photos even though we did. We highly recommend the tour through Go to joy Iceland. Thank you for making this a very special night.

We had a great time with our tour guide Maggi! The bus was comfortable and we made it out of the city quickly. He brought us to a few spots searching for the elusive Aurora borealis. We eventually made it to a secluded spot and got a great show of lights. Excellent all around.

Tour guide Maggi was very knowledgeable, friendly and couldn’t be more helpful. Aurora wasn’t very strong but we managed to see it.
