Great guide made it a great night!

Our driver/tourguide Josef was fantastic! Even though Mother Nature didn't cooperate and we weren't able to clearly see the Northern Lights during our tour, it certainly wasn't' due to a lack of effort of Josef's behalf. He took us to multiple sites, shared lots of interesting facts about Iceland during the drive, and warmed us up with piping hot cocoa as well. Our thanks to him for all that he did to provide a great experience.

Aurora dancing

Mother nature does dictate your experience, but we got lucky the sky was clear for us able to see some aurora light. The guide was very knowledgeable and nice. We were very pleased with the whole trip.

Unreal experience

Our guide Nelu promptly drove us to a nice secluded spot to view the lights! He was an amazing photographer and made sure we got all the shots we wanted. I’m extremely satisfied with this once in a lifetime experience! And the hot chocolate was a lovely touch :)

Amazing Lady Aurora Experience

Nelu is the man! Driver/tour guide/ photographer in one! Pick up was smooth, cool ride, nice playlist and amazing photos. I was traveling solo, this tour is excellent since it is just a small group, luxury of space and comfort, with hot chocolate and sweets and lastly photos are free! Isn’t that amazing? Sent us the photos even before we drove back to Reykjavic. I can’t thank you enought Nelu 👍👌🤗
