The group size is limited to 16, allowing a more personal experience. Your guide monitors weather conditions and selects the ideal spot to watch the aurora. While waiting, you can use provided blankets and hand warmers to stay comfortable. Complimentary hot chocolate and Icelandic chocolate treats are served to keep you warm.
