Review of Reykjavik’s private Northern Lights tour with hotel pickup, off-road flexibility, pro photos, hot drinks, and free rebooking.

“The experience and communication from start to finish was perfect. They emailed me a week before coordinating days we would be available as options to find the optimal night to see the Northern Lights. Isabella arrived promptly at our hotel, and was so courteous and professional. She took amazing photographs so we had family photos of the experience too! I highly recommend booking with Icelandic Roamers over the others for a more customized experience without having to worry about timing of getting back to the hotel at a certain time. Isabel made sure we were happy with our experience the entire time. Oh…and they provided us with THE BEST hot…”

Review of Reykjavik’s Northern Lights tour with photographer, warm suits, snacks, free photos, small groups, and flexible re-runs.

“We managed to see proper northern lights on the way back from the tour. the driver stopped for us on the way back. unfortunately I have to say we thought that the way it was organized didn't really work too well. they were late by 30 minutes apparently due to the broken van, which obviously can happen. we were provided the warm suits after nearly two hours after we have arrived at the place, we have been given snacks and warm drinks 10 minutes before we left, which was in the 4th hour of our trip.. I think all that should have been given to us much earlier... even the…”
