Excursión en grupo de 4 horas por la aurora boreal desde Reykjavík

Ingo fue nuestro guía para la noche y fue absolutamente increíble. En el camino hacia el lugar elegido, Ingo fue informativo sobre las auroras boreales y cómo ocurren. fue interesante. También me gustaría señalar aquí que la conducción de Ingo fue fantástica. En el lugar elegido tuvimos mucha suerte y tuvimos un buen espectáculo de auroras boreales, fueron espectaculares. También nos dieron chocolate caliente y un pastel islandés mientras estábamos allí, lo cual fue un toque encantador. Las mantas de lana también fueron una gran ventaja, ya que hacía mucho frío y había un viento fuerte. Estoy muy contento de haber elegido ir con esta experiencia sobre todas las demás y sentí que Ingo estaba muy dedicado a encontrar las luces y brindar una excelente experiencia al cliente. Gracias.

Me encanta el tour en grupos pequeños, mucho más fácil. Nuestro Giude Huji fue muy amable y servicial. Encontramos un lugar para ver las luces temprano y nos quedamos allí. Hacía mucho frío y Huji tomó un delicioso chocolate caliente.

Desafortunadamente, debido al clima, no he visto las luces ... Todavía califico 5 estrellas porque el recorrido fue muy agradable, muy bien organizado y el guía realmente se esforzó por encontrar un lugar donde pudiéramos verlo. La gente debe entender que es un fenómeno natural y no estará esperándonos. La aurora boreal probablemente sucedió independientemente, pero dependiendo de las condiciones climáticas, es posible que no sean visibles. Ciertamente quiero volver a hacerlo.

Me encantó la experiencia de grupos pequeños. Pensé que visitaríamos más de un sitio, pero acabé echando un vistazo. Ingo, nuestro guía, fue informado y hospitalario. ¡Definitivamente recomiendo este tour!

Went out on the tour Friday 12/7 and we were only able to see a sliver of green through the clouds with a digital camera. The guide went to 4 different spots trying to find a break in the clouds, but wasn't able to find one. He gets an A for effort. Since we didn't have luck Friday we went out again on Saturday night and another group told our guide they were seeing lights so she gathered us all back in the van and drove the 45 minutes to where the others were having luck. But, unfortunately by the time we got there the clouds had come in. So, I decided to give it one more try on my last night and it proved the old saying 'Third times a charm". Maurizio drove out towards the airport and after checking with another tour that was already set up there he was told they hadn't seen anything yet, but it looked like Auroras were forming. He parked, I bundled up, stepped out with my camera and tripod, and within a minute of setting up the show started!! I was lucky to have a digital camera and tripod because it picked up the colors that the naked eye doesn't see. With my own eyes all I was able to see were very pale (almost white)forms moving around the sky. But, the camera picked up florescent greens along with some other colors. I had my camera shutter set on 15 and 30 second exposure and wish I had cut that down some because the stars show in all my photos and I think if I had gone down to 5 seconds and raised my ISO I may have less stars and more of the lights images. But, I'm not complaining! It was a great experience and I'm glad I kept trying. I'd also like to note that other companies had cancelled their northern lights tours for Sun 12/9, but EastWest didn't and we were awarded with a great show. I recommend this tour for the perseverance of the guides and the size of the group (under 15) which makes it easier to get people in and out of the van if its necessary to move from one location to the next.

Our guide was outstanding and found the spot where there was clearing off and on in the night sky and we saw the Northern Lights. The weather was cold and the wind was fierce. So, we all appreciated that the driver and guide served very hot chocolate and Icelandic donuts. This was a very nice tour.

As soon as we got on the bus, the tour guide told us that the aurora forecast was at 0! I understand when they said it was possible we would not see the northern lights but why did they continue with the tour when other tours cancelled because of the forecast?

Didnt get to see much of the Northern Lights bu5 the trip was still good. Very nice driver.

This may be surprising, but we did not get to see the northern lights on the tour, and still felt that the tour deserved 5 stars. We knew that seeing the lights is hit or miss. The reason for the high rating is the great service, nice people, very nice vehicle and the effort put into trying to find the lights. Our hotel was actually outside of Reykjavik and they picked us up at our hotel anyway, and communicated with us very well about the timing and details. Thank you to our tour guide and the driver. It was a beautiful evening.

The guide started off interesting and informative but soon went quiet. At the stops we took he was very chatting but whilst driving very quiet. The night was very cloudy with only a couple of small breaks in the clouds but no lights were visable to the naked eye xx
