    Are the Northern Lights guaranteed on this trip?
    The Northern Lights or Aurora Borealis as they are also referred to are one of the many natural wonders of the world and are a natural phenomenon. As a naturally occurring phenomenon, the appearance of the Northern Lights is notoriously difficult to predict any further in advance than about two hours before it happens. So much is dependent on solar activity, we cannot accurately predict when they will occur nor how frequently. Every endeavour will be made on this trip to see the Northern Lights if it is the correct time of year to see the lights, however, this is not guaranteed. The tour includes Northern Light walks from the hotels. Also, most of the hotels are located away from light pollution.
    Can you assist with booking additional accommodation?
    Of course, we can help you book pre/post tour accommodation if you wish to stay in the same hotels as the ones we use on the tour. We always have some rooms on allotment for pre/post nights. If you would like to stay an extra day in Reykjavík before or after the tour, please contact our team.
    What is the midnight sun?
    During the summer months, Iceland gets a few days where the sun never even touches the horizon, ending in 24 hours of Daylight. This phenomenon is most visible around the Summer Solstice, June 21st.
    I'm a solo traveller, is there a single supplement?
    A single supplement is mandatory for this trip if you want to have your own room.

    Flights before and after the tour are not included.

    Somewhere between 8.000 and 10.000 ISK per person per day is a good budget for meals while on the tour.
