Blue Lagoon & Northern Lights Tour
Blue Lagoon & Northern Lights Tour
At your selected time on the day of your excursion, we'll meet up at the selected meeting point in Reykjavik and hop aboard our bus for the 50-minute drive to the famous Blue Lagoon Spa.
This natural geothermal spa is known for its therapeutic waters and muds, and you'll get to make the most of their healing powers! Spend four delightful hours pampering your skin and contemplating the spectacular landscape that surrounds the lagoon. Relaxation in its purest form! What's more, the spa entrance includes a clay face mask that will leave your skin like new.
After this unforgettable relaxing experience, we'll return to our original departure point in Reykjavik for 7 pm or 8 pm, depending what time you started your tour. You'll then have free time before resuming the tour in search of the Northern Lights.
At the scheduled time, we'll get back on the bus and head out to find the best possible spot to watch this spectacular natural phenomenon. As our eyes adjust to the darkness around us, we'll start to see different coloured lights dance through the sky. It'll feel like you're dreaming!
We'll take the time to enjoy this unique experience and take photographs so that we'll remember it forever. The guide will help you with your camera and give you photography tips to ensure your photos look like they're taken by a professional.
Having seen the aurora borealis, we'll take you back to the meeting point.

Hotel pickup
When you make your reservation, you will be asked at which hotel in Reykjavik you're staying. You'll be directed to the meeting point closest to your hotel. As most of the streets in the center are not accessible by bus, you'll have to go to a nearby location, which will be indicated as "bus stop" and a number.
