Golden Circle and Northern Lights Superjeep Tour from Reykjavik

Adam was right on time, very informative and very professional. We had limited time in Iceland, and this tour was a great way to see both the Golden Circle and Northern Lights in one tour. Adam was part geologist and part geographer as he explained the unique and beautiful landscape, unlike anything we had ever seen before. At night, he was part meteorologist and part astronomer as he used tech tools and his experience to find the best places to view the Northern Lights. It was a clear night but with low solar activity, so viewing chances seemed slim. However, Adam managed to find some spots to get views, and he took some great pictures for us. All in all, it was a great day, and we highly recommend this tour. As a suggestion, you may be more comfortable wearing windproof pants even in late March, because the walking paths were very cold and windy, especially later in the day.

Our guide, Adam from Try Iceland Tours was amazing. Right away we noticed we forgot our water, he made a quick stop for us for snacks and water. Our first stop was the national park. It has gorgeous vistas, history, waterfalls, light hiking and a little climbing (take the crampons if winter). He drove us to multiple sites and would meet us at the next spot on the trail. After the National park, we travelled to see the Geysers. They went off approximately every 3 minutes. He would let us have some time at each stop and let us know where to meet and where to go to the facilities. We saw the gorgeous Gullfoss waterfall and then continued on to meet a few adorable Icelandic Horses. We then had a wonderful dinner at a wonderful spot, Mika, where we had deep fried langoustines, I had lamb, my daughter had a pizza and I think my husband had filet. We treated Adam to dinner. This place also had a chocolate factory and we were able to buy some delicious handmade chocolates. Then after dinner, we let Adam do a little research while we ate dessert on the Northern Lights because you have to find them. We went far out, near a River a little off road, about 120km outside Reykjavík. It was a big night for solar activity and we were lucky to have that show! He took out his professional camera and tripod and took amazing photos of our family. He does photography for movies, so he is really good. All in all, the experience was second to none. You will not be sorry if you book this tour. I know people do not usually tip in Europe, but we did tip Adam because this tour was really personal and it was beyond our expectations. You get a little taste of everything!
