Northern Lights and Secret Lagoon Trip by Super Jeep uit Reykjavik

We didn't get to see the lights, but it was still a great experience. Adam picked us up outside the hotel and got us to the Secret Lagoon in time for us to have an hour in it. With it being the end of the night it wasn't that busy, just another small group there. The lagoon had a bar so we were able to go in the lagoon with a drink! :) The Secret Lagoon was well worth a visit! Whilst we were in the lagoon Adam was scouting out the best place to spot the lights and consulted cloud maps, solar wind activity, and KP scores. He took us well out of the way to get to spot where there was a break in the clouds, and while there was some light activity, we sadly didn't get to see the lights in full force. Adam did try very hard to give us the best possible chance, it was a shame luck wasn't on our side that night.

Guide was very accommodating and knowledge. The great picture was courtesy of him, he brought hot beverages to keep us warm, while we waited for the lights!

First off, Adam is a fantastic guide... he really does know his stuff and I'm not sure we would have seen those elusive Northern lights if it wasn't for his enthusiasm and absolute determination to give us a good experience! The very slight negative for us was that there were 6 of us on this tour, and our family of 4 are all very big (husband ex rugby player, 6'8", son current rugby player around 6', myself a tall 5'8", and a normal size 11 year old) so we were a bit uncomfortable with 2 extra passengers. I assumed it would just be us when I booked. Please do not let this influence your decision to book Adam for this trip though unless you are also a family of giants...but even then, he is worth a bit of discomfort. And the extra 2 people were great fun so we made new friends too. The secret Lagoon was very pleasant. I didn't think I would enjoy swimming outside in the dark and snow but actually we all loved it, and it was even a little too warm in some spots. Unexpected bonus was the bar and enjoying a glass of wine with our new friends in the water! But the highlight of course was finding the lights. Adam wanted to take photo's and they were fabulous, he has quite a talent there. He was happy to wait around for as long as we wanted to, and in fact, we wanted to leave in the end before he did. I got the impression he would have stayed forever if that's what we wanted. And I loved his personal story too. Brave and romantic! So, the message here is, please do book this experience. You won't be disappointed and although you can never guarantee a sighting you will have an interesting evening with Adam as a guide regardless!
