Visit The Traveling Viking ↗Before you book
Aurora sightings are weather-dependent and cannot be guaranteed by anyone. Routes are chosen on the night from the real-time forecast and cloud cover. Check the live conditions before your departure — and if tonight looks poor, a tour with a free retry costs you nothing to postpone.
How we make money: some booking links on this page are affiliate links — if you book through them we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. It never changes the price you pay, and it does not decide which tours we list: every tour here is checked by hand and ranked on group size, retry policy and what is actually included. We do not sell tours or process payments; booking and cancellation are handled by the operator.
Pick the right night
The free Aurora Iceland app scores 137 viewing spots every 5 minutes and alerts you when conditions turn good — useful before your tour, and after it.
