Hi I'm Steve, and it's my pleasure to welcome you to Iceland! With over 9 years living in Iceland, and originally being from Australia—I’m proud to call this land of fire and ice my home.

Having traversed Iceland many times, I boast insights that would make even 'Trip Advisor' envious :) My deep understanding of Icelandic culture, coupled with a sincere dedication to my clients' well-being, has earned me the trust and recommendation of many. My mantra, 'come as a stranger, leave as a friend', sums up my service approach to guiding. I genuinely enjoy the opportunity to connect with individuals from all walks of life, ensuring each moment is memorable and enjoyable. As an avid photographer and skilled drone pilot, I have the photographic expertise and knowing where to get the BEST SHOTS so as to capture your Icelandic adventure.

Your Reykjavik tour itinerary

I will pick you up from your hotel or central point in Reykjavik and we will go searching for the lights, covering some secret spots that have dramatic backdrops that have in the past given spectacular photographs. We will cover different areas surrounding Reykjavik where we get minimal light pollution and the best chance to see the stunning spectacle. As the northern lights are an unpredictable natural phenomenon and its intensity is weather dependent I will confirm with you by 4pm on the day of the tour whether it is worth going or not. If the conditions are not suitable, then we will reschedule. If we can’t reschedule then a full refund will be given.
