Exploring the mystical Aurora Borealis

Embark on a mesmerizing journey to witness one of nature's most stunning displays, the northern lights of Aurora Borealis, aboard a cruise from Reykjavik. Your adventure begins at the Visitor Centre, housed in a vintage fishing vessel, offering charming insights into Iceland's seafaring past. Here, expert guides welcome you and provide an enlightening overview of the science and myths behind the ethereal lights. Journey into the dark blue yonder of Faxaflói Bay, leaving behind the city lights of Reykjavik. With heated indoor areas, a 360° viewing platform, and warm overalls provided, your comfort is assured as you set sail under the star-studded sky. If cancelled due to unfavourable conditions, you'll receive free tickets to embark on the search on another day as many times as needed within 2 years.
