Go in search of the most dramatic lightshow on Earth on this aurora-hunting adventure in Iceland. Guided by an expert local tour leader, we head into the Icelandic countryside, where the dark skies (and real-time data) give us our best chance of seeing the Northern Lights. Here, we also discover roaring waterfalls, icebergs littered on the black volcanic sands of Diamond Beach, and the Golden Circle of Gullfoss Waterfall, Geysir and Thingvellir National Park.
One of Our Top Recommended Trips for 2026… Here’s Why
Our stage in the Solar Cycle, a natural 11-year fluctuation in the sun’s magnetic activity, means that 2026 promises to be the best aurora-viewing year in a decade with more intense and more frequent displays. If you’ve ever dreamt of seeing the Northern Lights, now’s the time to book that trip! − Garance Chuzel, destination expert.
