Day 1

Arrival & Northern Lights Tour


Welcome to Reykjavik, the scenic capital of Iceland! Upon arrival, your driver will meet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel for check-in.

Afterward, enjoy an orientation drive around Reykjavik to see its main sights. You will pass Bessastaðir, the official residence of the President of Iceland, and Hofdi, the historic building where the 1986 summit between U.S. President Ronald Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev took place. You will also see the Althing building, a classical 19th-century structure that houses the main debating chamber of the Icelandic parliament.

In the evening, embark on a private Northern Lights jeep tour. Together with your driver-guide, you will leave the city to escape light pollution, with locations chosen based on current cloud coverage to maximize your chances of seeing the Aurora Borealis. Possible stops include Kleifarvatn Lake, where the Northern Lights may reflect on the water, or Thingvellir National Park, where the Aurora might dance above the mountains. The tour lasts approximately three hours, after which you will be returned to your hotel.
