Overview

The celestial phenomenon of the Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, has bewitched and enchanted generations and is truly one of Earth’s most magnificent sights. Out on the North Atlantic Ocean, the coastline of Reykjavík is one of the best places on Earth to view the Northern Lights. There's no better way to experience this natural phenomenon than with the Northern Lights cruise with Amelia Rose. Please note, the northern lights are a natural phenomenon and unpredictable, so remember to bring patience and optimism with you. If there are no sightings on the tour, we do not offer refunds but instead, we offer our passengers a free return to join our tour depending on availability, valid for up to three years. Weather is a big factor for the tour, and we may have to cancel the tour. We will notify you via email in the event of a cancellation.

We are located at the Reykjavík Old Harbour close to the city's center. It is the main port of departure for whale watching and northern lights tours. *Please arrive at the meeting point 30 MINUTES BEFORE DEPARTURE.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

Old Harbour (Pass By)

The ship sets sails from Reykjavík’s Old Harbour and during your journey, you’ll sail among the small islands in the Faxaflói Bay, as well as along the coast of Reykjavík, providing you with a fantastic view of the city as you search for the wildlife in the water. The most common sights are minke and humpback whales, dolphins, and porpoises. However, there is always a chance to spot a few orcas (also known as killer whales) as well as a wealth of other species. The professional team onboard is very experienced in spotting whales and is dedicated to making sure their passengers leave with a smile!

Amazing experience!

What an incredible sight to see! The yacht tour was easy to get to and instructions were pretty simple. They had snacks and beverages available aboard. Get there early if you want a comfortable seat inside. But on deck is where it's most exciting. We were fortunate to see the lights the first night out. It was definitely beneficial coming with all cold gear (think gaiters and insulsted, windproof material). One of the best highlights of our trip!

You aren't always guaranteed to see the northern lights, but the captain always keeps you updated and aims to stay out so you get the chance
