Northern Lights in a Superjeep
Tour Operator: Superdeep. is Travel method: Jeep/4x4 Region: Capital Region
The northern lights are a natural wonder, ethereal sheets of green and blue lights swaying across the starry night sky.
To see the lights, you need to get out of the city lights on a clear winter's night. The northern lights guides are experts at finding the best spot for viewing the elusive(难以得到的) lights, giving you the very best chance possible to see them. Travelling in a small group means that your moment under the northern lights will be intimate and personal and the sturdy vehicle also allows for a greater range of movement. The superjeep drivers can get off the beaten path and take you to places where it's just you, the Icelandic nature and the northern lights.
