The guide cum photographer was very friendly and approachable. He was more than happy to take as many pictures of you as you want. The quality of professional photos was good and acceptable. He took us to a decent spot without too much light pollution and we could enjoy the beautiful night sky with successful aurora sightings albeit a very cold night. Our moods were uplifted with various Icelandic snacks and hot drinks. I will recommend this to anyone despite the hefty tour price. The group size is decent but we did not had any troubles. Everyone was polite to one another.

Core memory built for me and my teen
Thomas was our guide. He was friendly, funny, informative, and passionate about Iceland and the Northern lights. It was a magical experience we will never forget!

Bad weather
It's a shame I can't review The Northern Light because the tour has been cancelled.
Due to bad weather.

We saw the lights!
AMAZING! We left the city and because our guide did his homework he had us looking up at the Northern Lights within 45 minutes! This was such a treat. He may have been more excited than us at first. The snacks and hot chocolate were right on time.

Beautiful lights and a helpful host.
The guide was very helpful and did his best to make sure that we had a good experience. We REALLY appreciated the snowsuits because it was terribly cold. We did get to see the lights and the guide shared his photos from the night with us so we knew we would get good photos. The trip is worth it but be prepared - the lights are wonderful but if you expect lots of colors that take over the whole sky then you will likely be disappointed.
We appreciated the hot chocolate and snacks.

This was an excellent tour and overall experience. Guide was friendly, very knowledgeable and professional. Pickup was easy. The snowsuits proved very necessary and cozy. Would definitely repeat (some of my group did later in the trip).

Perfect Aurora tour
Heimir was excellent; patient and knowledgeable and went out of his way to keep everyone happy and comfortable. The bus was warm and we used the snowsuits so we could stay warm and sit on the chairs provided and enjoy the fabulous lights in a remote location away from other tours. The snacks and hot chocolate were so welcome at the end. Would totally recommend.

An Unforgettable Experience
We cannot say enough good things about Heimir. He was the ultimate guide and host. He communicated with us regarding seeing the northern lights and helped to reschedule us to another night where the lights would be more favorable. Heimir gave us frequent updates and was helpful during the pick up process.
The bus is comfortable and heated. It was about a 30-45 minute drive to the viewing location. Heimir was consistently providing the group with fun facts, information, and personal stories all about the northern lights. His photography skills are amazing! He offered to take as many pictures as each guest wanted and would excitedly announce the best moments to snap shots as the lights brightened.
Heimir provided the group with foldable camp chairs for seating, heavy and warm snow suits to wear over your clothes for extra warmth, and of course, traditional Icelandic snacks and treats with hot chocolate.
At the end of our trip, Heimir made a complete effort to bring you back to our respective hotels and lodgings as close as possible. My husband joked and said Heimir would’ve probably driven us back to America if he could’ve! Just shows how thoughtful and considerate he was.
Again, we cannot stress how amazing our experience was. Highly, highly recommend if you’re considering. We read through several different companies and offerings for the Northern Lights tours, and we are sooo happy we chose Heimir with Aurora Experts!!

Great Tour!
Heimer was so wonderful, and the entire experience was incredible! He was flexible with rescheduling to a new day and with the pick-up timing, which I appreciated so much. He also went above and beyond to show us the lights and make sure we had the best time. I have nothing but good things to say about this tour and highly recommend to anyone wanting to see the lights!

Great experience 10 stars!
Amazing evening! Heimir was a fantastic knowledgable guide.
We had our 5year old with us and he kept us up to date on collection time so we weren’t stood in the cold.
The sprinter was lovely and comfortable.
We got to location and luckily they were out and got stronger.
We had loads of lovely pictures taken that get emailed after.
He then got out chairs, snacks, hot chocolate etc. Our little boy enjoyed the crispy chocolate and my partner the fish.
Plenty of time spent at location and my little boy could go on and off the bus to keep warm.
I would 1000% recommend this tour.
