Embark on an unparalleled Northern Lights experience in Reykjavík with Harpa yacht tour. Unwind in the cozy interior, sip a drink from the onboard bar & café, and stay warm with provided blankets.

As we cruise along Reykjavik's coastline, we seek the enchanting Northern Lights, often passing by the Imagine Peace light tower. Our dedicated crew strives for the best sightings, and if elusive, join us again for free. Our main vessel, Harpa (max 35 passengers), ensures an intimate setting, while Amelia Rose (max 98 passengers) may be used on special occasions, both boasting ample amenities.

The trip was great and can’t fault the boat and crew, unfortunately we didn’t manage to see the lights but we can revisit free for the next 3 years, can’t say fairer than that.

Cannot parodic the weather but advertised small boat and was taken out on board a larger boat rammed with drunken people with over expensive bar . Not worth the money in my opinion

It was a cloudy night so we could really see the northern lights clearly, we could through the clouds. The boat ride out was nice and the company said because we didn't see the light we could book again. We plan to go back out once we find a time to go

1. Never left out of the city lights so no chance to really see the northern lights
2. The tour guide was just talking into the microphone nonsensical comments: ‘we may see them in 20 min or we may not’ . Judging statements: ‘it is okay if you choose to stay inside but you should be up here’
3. They should have offered everyone a hot chocolate not a beer coupon for another place
4. For many of us this is a once in a lifetime trip so giving us another coupon does not work
5. I would like a tour credit on viator for this trip because none of it was done properly.
I have seen the northern lights in Canada and you cannot be in a harbor within the city limits.
I have used your company many times.
Thank you for your consideration.

We looked at the different tours debating about big ship small ship or the very small speedboat. We chose Harpa because of the boat size. Close enough on the lower deck to be close to the water but a good view from the upper deck.
We were not disappointed. Very friendly and knowledgeable staff, smooth ride and we saw whales and dolphins. It’s cold out on the sea b6 the boat had a warm cabin and bar to retire too if needed. No captain can guarantee you will see whales but great that the firms work together sharing info on position / type of whale etc.

Overall great experience and felt in safe hands.

Key failings 1) they take you about 500m from coast to the same fixed point and sit there for the evening - you are so close to shore and no effort made to find the right location to view Northern Lights 2) only a 5 minute spiel on NLs (probably from Wiki) and that is all you get - no updates on weather or best place to move to 3) the experience is not remotely luxury - it is mass market. So, you sail out 500m from coast, sit there for a while listening to cheesy music then sail back when the time is up. NLs by numbers. A massive tourist con. They were lazy - there were clear skies the night we were out but they didn’t even bother looking - we see this as a missed opportunity to see the lights - we could have seen them with other providers who try - so a complete waste of our time. The thought of repeating this experience (the no lights offer) depressed me in the extreme. My advice - do not waste your time.

We were unsuccessful in viewing the Northern Lights but hope to rebook for tonight or tomorrow to try again.

A great way to see the spectacular Northern Lights. Friendly informative crew blankets provided bar on board.We were unlucky the first time, but the second (free) trip was brilliant. A change from a coach trip - Go for it.
