FAQ TOURS IN ICELAND

Do I need to book Iceland day tours in advance?

Yes, booking in advance is strongly recommended. Many Iceland day tours—especially during summer and peak travel periods—sell out quickly. Booking ahead guarantees your spot and allows you to plan your itinerary with confidence.

Are Iceland day tours suitable for families and children?

Most Iceland day tours are family-friendly and suitable for children. Tour descriptions clearly indicate age recommendations, driving time, and walking difficulty so you can choose the best option for your family.

What should I wear or bring on a day tour in Iceland?

We recommend dressing in layers and wearing sturdy shoes. Icelandic weather can change quickly, so a waterproof jacket, warm layers, and comfortable footwear are essential year-round.

 

 

What happens if the weather is bad?

Tours operate in most weather conditions, but safety always comes first. If weather conditions are unsafe, tours may be adjusted, rescheduled, or canceled according to the operator’s policy.

Where do the tours start and end?

Most day tours start and end in Reykjavík and include pickup from designated locations or central meeting points. Exact pickup details are provided for each tour, and you can choose your pick-up location during the booking process.

Are food and rest stops included?

Most tours include scheduled stops for restrooms and food purchases. Meals are usually not included unless stated otherwise.

Can I cancel or change my booking?

Cancellation and change policies vary by tour. Many offer free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure—always check the specific terms before booking.

We loved the tour. Our guide was Agnes -super nice guide which always had a smile on her face and she explained us a lot about Iceland. She was simply lovely. The tour was very well organized and we could see a lot of beautiful places and spots. Would highly recommend!

I had an amazing time! I have no complaints, we saw amazing views, learned about fascinating history and folklore, and had delicious food. I would definitely recommend this tour. And even though it was a full day tour, being able to take a brake on the bus in between stops makes a world of difference! Anastasia was a great tour guide!

I highly recommend taking this tour BEFORE you attempt to see the Northern Lights. They do a great job of explaining the phenonium and, more importantly, how to use your camera to capture the moment. Put this tour at the beginning of your trip. You will not be disappointed!

Even if you see the Northern Lights in the wild, you should still book a tour of Aurora Reykjavik. Not only will you learn a ton about the science and lore behind the Lights, you will get to see spectacular displays from all over Iceland on their huge movie screen. This was why I wanted to go, and it did NOT disappoint. Worth the price of admission by itself. But then, it was followed by a 5 minute 360 degree virtual reality presentation of even more Lights displays. So glad I went. Even though I saw the Lights in the wild, I did not feel like I'd really seen them until I went here. Loved it!

A very informative visit, excellent graphics, we had some knowledge of the lights but this explained it in great detail, thankyou. Well worth a visit and great coffee and cakes, very friendly staff, with a wide range of aurora gifts. Wonderfully colourful and an awesome theatre show, so peaceful we could have fallen to sleep. A must do attraction !!

Interesting factual guide to the aurora. It’s a little way out down by the harbour, but well worth a visit - easily walkable from the town centre. The best part was the virtual reality headset !

My son saw this museum on a YouTube short, I believe, and wanted to put a pin on the map. We enjoyed the science explanations and the beautiful photography. We regretted not buying a 66 North arctic hat which was a little cheaper than the actual store. Also, the young lady at the reception was super helpful.

I bought tickets for a night excursion to see the Northern Lights on Jan 1st 2025 from Reykjavík Excursions. I specifically bought from this company because it included free entry to Aurora Reykjavik on the day of the excursion. The Aurora forecast wasn’t very good, so I didn’t expect to get a good display and thought, at least I’ll learn something at the center. This was a great decision, the display isn’t very expansive, but it is very well laid out, the staff are friendly and helpful and the display was both informative and very well presented. We spent about 90 minutes there and it felt just about right. As a side note, the forecast changed significantly during the evening and we were treated to a spectacular display and this was made even more enjoyable by the fact that we had more knowledge on the subject and realized the significance of the rarity of the red aurora that we witnessed. I’d certainly recommend Aurora Reykjavík especially as a prelude to an excursion!

An extremely informative place to visit before my northern lights tour. A good preview really And the person in charge at the time of my visit, Shannon, was extremely friendly and approachable. Had a lovely time overall! Thanks Aurora Reykjavik!!

Very informative exhibit about the Northern Lights and how they are formed. Great video show of the lights over many of Iceland's tourist destinations. The female attendant was absolutely top notch..she made us free coffee, explained and answered all our questions, and then even called and arranged taxis for the 8 of us!!
