Most Popular★ 4.5

“We booked them for a Northern Lights tour. Though it's hard to guarantee the experience, they have great skills to predict the location. And then patience, patience, patience. :) We were lucky and enjoyed some really nice lights. The experience was topped by the local perspective and humour on Icelandic life. Highly recommended.”
