Northern Lights 4×4 Tour with Pastries and Cocoa from Reykjavik

2.Northern Lights 4×4 Tour with Pastries and Cocoa from Reykjavik

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 340 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $145Top rated

Leave Reykjavik by heated 4x4 minibus with up to 16 people, following weather and solar activity to find darker skies. Guides such as Laura, Lorenzo, Piotr, Edgar, and George have helped guests spot the aurora, set up cameras, and enjoy cocoa, pastries, hand warmers, and guide-taken photos.

“We did see the Northern Lights, which was the highlight, and the coffee and doughnuts were a nice touch. However, pickup was an hour late and the tour overall felt very flat. Our guide, Margot (sp), was kind but lacked energy and enthusiasm. She didn’t share any folklore and only gave a brief explanation of the science behind the lights. Hand warmers weren’t offered (we found them ourselves on the bus), and both drives were almost completely silent, which made a late-night tour harder to stay engaged in. At the first stop, when clouds blocked the view, she asked us if we wanted to give up or try other locations…”

“Very poor experience with this operator. Viator should check the credibility of tour operators and put some checks and balances. There was no office at the location mentioned in booking and no person at the provided location at the tour time. On calling to customer care, he asked us to wait till 9pm at -27 degrees temp outside and talked rudely also. It seemed they have overbooked the tour and spoiled our experience. Big No for this operator.”

“We did not see any Northern lights and in the very last minute our tour was changed for a lower price onem without been offered any compensation. The funny thing is that we eventually saw few lights from our Hotel balcony, once the tour was finished, so I guess that the spots the guide have choosen were not the best ones. What a shame !3 hours in the bus where the heater was not working properly.”
