The journey
Set sail from Reykjavík for an unforgettable evening searching for the Northern Lights on the North Atlantic. Watching the aurora away from the shoreline, with the city lights in the background, makes for a memorable way to experience one of Iceland’s most remarkable natural phenomena.
Your expert guide shares the science, legends and myths behind the lights while you scan the sky from the deck. On board, you can warm up in the indoor seating area, enjoy access to the cafeteria, and listen for announcements when the lights appear.
The friendly crew also takes photos on every tour, available to download afterwards at no extra charge, and can help with camera settings so you have the best chance of capturing the auroras.
Spend 2-3 hours at sea searching for the Aurora Borealis with your expert guide.
