The Northern Lights, also known as the aurora borealis, is a natural light display in the Earth’s sky, predominantly seen in the high-latitude regions (around the Arctic and Antarctic). The collision of solar particles with atoms in the Earth’s atmosphere produces these lights, emitting various colors such as green, yellow, pink, purple, and red. The intensity and color of the lights can vary depending on the level of solar activity, and they are most visible during the dark winter months.

INTO THE DARK – LET THERE BE LIGHT
Aurora Borealis, the Northern Lights The feeling of staring skywards at the Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights, can not be caught on film, brought indoors, nor adequately described. Poets have tried, photographers and filmmakers have tried, but only being there gives you that feeling.
As it happens, Iceland is right under the Northern Lights belt, and therefore a perfect place on Earth for Aurora viewing. Also, the unstable weather conditions in Iceland increase the chances of those not having unlimited time to catch them. Clear skies are not needed, all you need is a hole in the clouds, at the right time. This is a hunt, not a conventional tour, we´re not going some specific places. Where we go is entirely dependent on the research and expertise of your Superjeep guide and his Mountain Taxi team.
If we deem conditions unfavourable; we don´t go. Our Superjeeps are essential for maximising your chances of good Aurora sightings. First and foremost, the darker your surroundings, the better you see Northern Lights. Looking for Northern Lights in a city can be likened to watching a film in a cinema with all the lights on.
Our Superjeeps can take you as deep into the darkness as possible within our timeframe, away from the city, and away from buses and road traffic and other light pollution. Off road, on snow, as necessary. If they fail to appear, you will still have had a great trip. If you really want to hunt down those elusive Auroras, Mountain Taxi is your best ally.
Arctic Trucks Driving 101. Enjoy half a day Super Truck tour and we will introduce you to the basic skills and techniques you need to learn to tackle different off-road terrains in Iceland driving an Arctic Truck.
