Itinerary
Private Reykjavík pick-up
Begin an exceptional winter evening in comfort
Meet your guide at the confirmed accommodation and travel through South Iceland in a private luxury vehicle. The route combines geothermal relaxation, Icelandic cuisine and an aurora search in one beautifully paced experience.
Secret Lagoon
Warm water in a naturally geothermal setting
Sink into the steaming pool at Flúðir, surrounded by rising vapour, mineral-rich water and a small erupting geyser nearby. The relaxed atmosphere offers a wonderfully authentic contrast to the crisp winter air.
Icelandic dinner
Local flavour after the lagoon
Continue to a welcoming restaurant for a satisfying meal inspired by Icelandic ingredients and culinary traditions. The dinner creates a warm, social pause before the evening turns towards darker skies and the aurora forecast.
Forecast-led departure
Follow the clearest skies available
Your guide checks cloud cover and aurora activity before selecting the strongest route for the night. South Iceland’s open farmland, volcanic horizons and low light pollution provide a beautiful setting for the search.
Northern Lights hunt
A flexible private search beneath the stars
Pause at promising viewpoints and allow time for the sky to change. If the aurora appears, enjoy the colours in an unhurried private setting while your guide helps you appreciate and photograph the display.
Return to Reykjavík
Relax after a memorable fire-and-ice evening
Settle back into the private vehicle for the return journey, carrying the warmth of the lagoon, the flavours of dinner and the excitement of searching Iceland’s winter sky for the Northern Lights.
