Chase the magical Northern Lights on an unforgettable evening adventure from Reykjavik. Journey away from the city’s glow into Iceland’s countryside, where the night sky is darker and the aurora more visible. Your guide will share stories about the lights, local folklore, and the science behind this natural wonder. As you wait beneath the stars, enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and hope to witness ribbons of green, pink, or purple light dancing overhead. The Northern Lights are unpredictable, but every outing offers a memorable Icelandic night under the Arctic sky.

My sister and I chose the Folklore Tour and would recommend to anyone, who is also curious about the darker side of folklore. Einar was our guide and he really brought the stories to life - many jokes, committed dramatic performances and a clear passion for folklore

Excellent tour with Kristin, informative and engaging, a great blend of history, folklore and mythology. A wonderful introduction to our time in Iceland and very lucky to see so many of the famous cats!

Maria G was punctual, friendly and very knowledgeable. It was very rainy and windy. She made the experience fun. I would highly suggest her as a Icelandic Food Tour guide.
