NORTHERN LIGHTS TOUR

The Northern Lights, also known as the Aurora Borealis, are a spectacular natural phenomenon, often seen dancing
around in fantastic colours across the Arctic Sky. The Northern Lights originate from the sun, where large explosions and
electronic storms throw flares and solar particles deep into space. The clouds of solar particles are caught by the Earth’s
magnetic field on the south and north poles. The solar particles collide with the atmospheric gases and create this
wonderful light effect, known as the Aurora Borealis. Note: The Northern Lights can be seen when certain weather
conditions are fulfilled, usually during crispy cold and very still evenings. Subject to the correct weather conditions for
sightings this tour will operate.

This has been our most popular tour for many years - and with good reason. The day is spent encountering a cross-section of Iceland’s natural wonders, geology and history, making numerous stops along the way in order to experience Iceland’s nature up-close and personal. We drive to Kerid, a huge volcanic crater turned lake, then onto Iceland’s most famous and picturesque waterfall ‘Gullfoss’, known as ‘The Golden Falls’ - the Queen of Iceland’s waterfalls. After lunch [optional] we continue to explore the nearby Geysir geothermal area, bubbling with activity, where hot springs are in abundance and the active Geysir ‘Strokkur’ spouts every 15 minutes. Visit the Geysir Museum [admission included], an informative, multimedia exhibition that vividly shows how the forces of nature shaped the country and its people down through the ages. Continue via Lake Laugarvatn to *Thingvellir National Park, a place of great geological interest and the site of the ‘Althing’, Iceland’s oldest Parliament founded in 930. [*visited during Winter months only when road conditions allow].

The Blue Lagoon is located South-West of Reykjavik near the fishing village of Grindavik on the Reykjanes Peninsula. A high-temperature geothermal field supplies the hot water to the Reykjanes district and steam to run the power plant, and it is the mineral-rich overflow water from this operation that fills the Lagoon. The geothermal water is pumped up from 2,000 metres below the Earths surface. High levels of silica, minerals and algae give the Blue Lagoon its rich blue colour. It was in 1980 that people began to bathe in the Blue Lagoon and since then its popularity has continued to increase. Last year some 170.000 bathers enjoyed the Lagoons facilities. The new bathhouse and bathing facilities can accommodate 900 guests. Whether in the middle of winter surrounded by snow, or in the long summer daylight, the Lagoon is exciting, invigorating and superbly relaxing. On Tour RE/718 between late Autumn and early Spring the Northern Lights are often seen dancing in the sky, when conditions allow a stop will be made in the lava fields so that you may experience the spectacular display of undulating colours - an experience not to be missed!
