Northern Lights Escape

Kiya · Traveled March 2024
My partner and I throughly enjoyed the Northern Lights Escape tour, and found it to be the perfect mix of day activity’s while still positioning us perfectly to have the best chance at seeing the lights at night. Would recommend the tour for anyone who wants to see the natural beauty of Iceland with an informative guide who goes the extra mile to make your experience special.

Everything was amazing - yes, even the fermented shark! If you get Stefan as a leader, you're in for a treat. FYI if you're a millenial solo female traveler, I felt super safe on this trip - there were 6 of us! Take the plunge!

Northern Lights Escape

Ric · Traveled March 2024
Our Iceland trip with Stefan exceeded all of our expectations--and we went in with very high expectations. Everything was well organized and well executed. The scenery is beyond description. But what really makes a trip successful is the people. Our tour guide, Stefan, was exceptional and the others in our tour group were fun and considerate. The trip could not have been better. The Northern Lights were our primary reason for the trip. We saw the lights and so much more. On a scale of 1-5, I give this trip and our guide Stefan a 10.

Northern Lights Escape

The March Northern Lights Tour did not disappoint. From seeing the Northern Lights on the first night out, to beautiful ice rocks at Diamond Beach, the black sand of Black Sand Beach, stunning waterfalls, hiking an ice cave, and so much more, this was a wonderful tour of the Southern area of Iceland. I would highly recommend using Intrepid for tours. The small group number made it much more enjoyable. I only wish Stefan could be the tour guide on all your tours. He was knowledgeable, organized, accessible and just plain fun to hang out with.
