Reykjavik by Helicopter & Northern Lights by Boat

Passengers begin their day of adventure with a helicopter ride operated by Norðurflug. They will get to explore the beautiful city from above, as well as the breathtaking lava fields that surround the city. To top it off the pilot will make a landing at a nearby summit so passengers can breathe in the magnificent Icelandic mountain air while enjoying the extraordinary panoramic views.

When it starts getting dark, passengers will join a nice and cosy sail along the coastline of Reykjavík in search for the colorful Northern Lights. The guide will explain everything about the auroras while passengers gaze into the sky where the lights dance above.

Please note that transfers are not available for the helicopter tours, so passengers must meet on location (on the East side of the domestic airport). Transfers are available to book for an extra cost for the Northern Lights by Boat tour through Bókun. If transfers are selected, pick-up begins 1 hour prior to the northern lights departure.
