Winter Light - Lake Mývatn and Northern Lights Experience
Private Tour
Fire and Sky – A North Iceland Adventure
Experience two of North Iceland’s greatest wonders in one unforgettable journey.
Our afternoon begins with a scenic drive from Akureyri through snow-covered valleys and frozen landscapes, leading to the volcanic heart of Lake Mývatn. Here, you’ll explore steaming geothermal fields, lava formations, and otherworldly views shaped by Iceland’s powerful forces of nature.
As daylight fades, the adventure continues under the Arctic night. With clear skies and a bit of luck, we’ll chase the Northern Lights, finding quiet spots where the aurora dances above the dark lava fields. I’ll share local stories, help with photos, and make sure you have time to simply enjoy the moment — surrounded by the stillness of Iceland’s winter.
This Lake Mývatn and Northern Lights tour from Akureyri combines everything that makes the north so special — raw landscapes, glowing skies, and the magic of discovery with a local guide.

The northern lights are a natural phenomenon and sightings can never be guaranteed even if the tour is operated.
