This was the best experience I had in Iceland, and this is a LOT to say because we had an amazing trip overall. First of all, they are absolutely honest about the odds of seeing the lights, they email and let you know if weather is bad or not and truly try their best to set expectations. We were told it was not a great night and that weather was not too good, but that they still had their radars showing there was a fair chance for a sighting. We got picked up by the nicest and knowledgeable tour guide! Þröstur (Thruster) you are the best! Thruster showed us a great time telling us all about the tales and history of iceland, while we waited he showed us all kinds of stars on the telescope and gave us some nice hot chocolate. In my opinion, the best of this tour, is the good energy and the determination they have to show is the lights! We did hunt the lights for a long time, we stayed until 2am!! but once we they started, we didn't care about time or sleep! it was magical, plus we were the ONLY tour that saw the lights that night, and I know it was because of Thruster's determination and gut feeling! we trusted him and it paid off! Also, because they do SMALL tours (6 people jeep) you are able to democratically decide if you...This was the best experience I had in Iceland, and this is a LOT to say because we had an amazing trip overall.

Also, because they do SMALL tours (6 people jeep) you are able to democratically decide if you want to stay past a specific time- all of the people in our tour wanted to stay, and we were so happy! I have a few friends going to Iceland in February and I already recommended this tour, its just the most personalized experience out there!!! THANK YOU Happyworld!! OH and they also take pictures and send them via dropbox! we also have a time lapse of our lights!!More
