About This Tour
The celestial phenomenon of the Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, has bewitched and enchanted generations and is truly one of Earth’s most magnificent sights. Out on the North Atlantic Ocean, the coastline of Reykjavík is one of the best places on Earth to view the Northern Lights. There's no better way to experience this natural phenomenon than with the Northern Lights cruise with Amelia Rose. Please note, the northern lights are a natural phenomenon and unpredictable, so remember to bring patience and optimism with you. If there are no sightings on the tour, we do not offer refunds but instead, we offer our passengers a free return to join our tour depending on availability, valid for up to three years. Weather is a big factor for the tour, and we may have to cancel the tour. We will notify you via email in the event of a cancellation.
