Hi, I have been working in the field of tourism since 2010 and love showing people my country. I truly believe that when people are passionate about their work and proud of it, then it really shows in the experience they provide. I was born and raised in North Iceland, specifically in the town of Akureyri, and both I and my family are great outdoors people, which has given me plenty of experience traveling all over my country. I can offer tours in 4x4 vehicles, Super jeep, Minibus from 11 to 19 passengers Luxury Range Rover Vogue Small vehicle as well. I am experienced in guiding groups of all sizes, and tailor-made private tours are something that I have been doing for years. From day tours to multiple-day tours and highlight tours. Licensed Professional driver. Professional Tour Guide Certification - University of Akureyri Full membership of the Icelandic Tourist Guide Association Licensed vehicles by the Icelandic Transport Authority.

Overview of your Akureyri tour

Join me on a wintery dark Night in Northern Iceland searching for the Northern lights. North Iceland is one of the best places in the world for finding the lights and it is my expert field of interest. I was born and brought up in North Iceland and know the lands of the North and spots to find the Northern lights away from the bright city lights. My family has been in North Iceland for generations so I have many contacts to call across the North to spot the lights in remote locations. I expertly check forecasts across multiple platforms and speak to my contacts in the countryside to help increase the chances of finding the lights. During the tour I explain about the science of the Northern lights and the local folklore and ledges surrounding them in Icelandic culture. I bring hot chocolate along for the tour if you would like some during the hunt. (wind and covid conditions dependant)

We leave the town of Akureyri in a Superjeep and search in the snow-topped mountainous countryside of North Iceland for the famous North Lights. I select the best locations for openings using my expertise in the field of North lights, multiple forecast channels and my many local contacts across the countryside.
