Remarkable - Our trip was cancelled due to the weather conditions on the original booking date. We received-arranged our trip for the following evening. Our guide was Tomasz. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about his job. He drove us to two locations before taking us to the final location, where we had a fantastic show. The lights were remarkable and it was an unforgettable evening. We are so grateful to Tomasz and his boss Siggy whom he communicated with throughout the evening. The hot chocolate was also a bonus. Thank you for a fantastic trip.

One word…. Amazing! - I always thought the seeing the Northern Lights would be a static adventure. It is not with Thomas and Iceland Everywhere. As the weather and magnetic storms evolve throughout the night you need to chase and anticipate where to be for the best experience. Thomas and his team were exceptional in this regard. He always seemed to know where to be. The small group tour size allows for a more personal and intimate experience. They are truly amazing!

Did you go to Iceland if you did not see the Northern Lights? - Our tour guide made sure no one was left behind. The lights weren’t as bright to the eye as they appeared in photos, but it was still a beautiful experience. Our guide was very knowledgeable, took photos for us, and even brought hot chocolate. Highly recommend if you're visiting Iceland! Advice: Check your emails and messages closely for any meet up updates

Amazing evening! - Greg was fantastic and very knowledgeable! Knew a lot about what made good conditions and how to find them. Said as we were leaving clouds would clear by 11 and we’d see something by 11:30. While that wasn’t 100% accurate, we did leave with amazing photos! You need to remember there are things lenses can pick up that our eyes cannot so often the photos are way more vivid than what you actually see in the sky - not a trick with green screen but just the way our eyes work which explains why we could see no purple and very little green but photos came out amazing! It was an incredible night. I had be er seen so many stars in my life. The experience was magical!!

A little cloudy, but the guide found the lights - It was a bit cloudy on the night we went but the guide was extremely persistent. He ended up driving us to 4 different places before we were able to see the lights. He did a nice job getting photos of everyone with the lights behind them.
