There is nothing more breathtaking than seeing
the Northern Lights dancing around the sky an unforgettable experience.
The Northern Lights are caused by the interaction
of particles from the sun with the upper atmosphere
near the North Pole. That creates this wonderful
light ­effect, known as the Aurora Borealis.
The Northern Lights are a spectacular ­natural
phenomenon, often seen d
­ ancing around in fantastic
colours across the Icelandic Arctic sky.
The locations visited differ from tour to tour since we

Take part in an adventure at sea with an unforgettable
trip into the world of whales and sea birds.
1 January - 31 December.
To ensure that the animals are not disturbed by
our presence, we sail at a constant speed towards
the whales’ habitat. As a result, a variety of species,
from minke and humpback whales, to white-beaked
dolphins and the tiny porpoises, often surface within a
few feet of the boat.
This tour depends on weather and
sightings are not guaranteed.
No two whale watching trips are the same but each
brings an unique experience. On board we have
excellent guides that describe what you can see and
where to look, together with an introduction and
safety guide.

An adventurous ride on an Icelandic horse is a
unique experience.
The history of the Icelandic horse can be traced right
back to the settlement of the country in the late 9th
century. The breed has remained pure for over a
thousand years and thus today there is only one breed
of horse in Iceland – The Icelandic Horse.
This tour takes you into the lava fields surrounding
Mount Helgafell volcano and onwards through
lavafields and across beautiful hillsides with the Bláfjöll
mountains towering above on the horizon. Look for
different formations in the lava, maybe you will be
able to spot a troll or two.
