Great experience provided by professional and friend staff - It was an amazing experience! The tour was very well-organized from the beginning to the end. I received advanced notice of its status (since it depends on the weather), a friendly guide on the pickup, and the drop-off. The guide (and driver) was able to find the Northern Light in two tries, so that gave me enough time to enjoy. Great photo service too

Definitely worth doing! - I give 5 stars for the service. The weather was not cooperating but the experience was still great. The cameras picked up the show, although it was difficult to see the lights with our own eyes because of the full moon. Regardless, this is definitely something worth doing in Iceland.

Magical Northern Lights Experience - We were so fortunate to have caught the elusive Northern Lights! The skies exploded with spectacular display of lights over and over again. Our guide Baldvin was very passionate about chasing the Northern Lights with us. He went over and above to ensure we had the best experience stopping whenever he spotted the NL so we could enjoy it. It was truly a remarkable experience! They provided blankets, hot chocolate and doughnuts…. Nice touch! Baldvin patiently took photos for everyone on the tour and also gave us tips how to take good photos. Thank you Baldvin for making our Iceland trip so memorable!

Greatest Aurora Tour! - Baldvin was a great guide, both informative and passionate about sharing the experience of the aurora with the people on the tour. It was a long time of waiting but he kept people motivated and in the end, his perseverance paid off with one of the best aurora I saw on my whole trip. The tour itself was to a great dark sky location and in a nice warm bus which you could relax in between stints on the coach. I would have to say probably the best of the 4 aurora tours I took that week, and Baldvin definitely made it that with his enthusiasm. He made sure people got the best possible experience and joy from seeing the aurora.

The best Northern Light experience in Iceland! - I meant it! This was my third time chasing the lights. EastWest just provided an amazing experience. Baldwin, the guider, went above and beyond to offer us an unforgettable experience. When visiting Iceland, this is the tour company that you should book your trips. I went to the South with them and it was also fantastic.

1/5 stars Enchanted Northern Lights: Hot Chocolate & Photos – Small Group - I had high hopes for this tour, but it was a big disappointment. I joined in April, and there were no Northern Lights at all — just complete darkness. I felt completely fooled and misled by the advertising. The experience was poorly organized, and the so-called "hot chocolate and photos" barely made up for it. Definitely not worth the money or the time. Would not recommend!

Disappointed and Misled!! - I had high hopes for this tour based on the glowing reviews, but unfortunately, it was a major letdown. First of all, the "small group" turned out to be more crowded than expected, and it felt rushed and chaotic. The guide seemed uninterested and barely provided any meaningful commentary throughout the trip. As for the "Enchanted Northern Lights"—we saw nothing. I understand nature can be unpredictable, but there was no backup plan or effort to make the evening worthwhile. Just standing around freezing with mediocre hot chocolate from a thermos was not what I paid for. And the "professional photos" we were promised? Barely any were taken, and the few we received were grainy and poorly edited. Honestly, we could’ve done better with our phones. Save your money and look elsewhere. This felt like a tourist trap rather than the magical experience it claimed to be.
