About this experience
Unlike crowded coach tours, your small-group Sprinter experience keeps things personal, comfortable, and flexible. With fewer passengers, you’ll enjoy more space, direct interaction with your guide, and a quieter, more relaxed atmosphere as you chase the Northern Lights.
Your guides are not only experts at reading Iceland’s skies but also skilled photographers, ready to help you capture stunning images of the Aurora Borealis. To keep you warm and cozy while waiting for the lights, we provide hot chocolate, traditional Icelandic pastries, and hand warmers — small touches that make a big difference.
This tour combines the thrill of aurora hunting with the ease of traveling in a modern Sprinter minibus. It’s a perfect balance of comfort, expert guidance, and unforgettable memories, making it an ideal choice for anyone who wants to experience Iceland’s most magical natural wonder in an intimate setting.
