What to expect?
Experience the Northern Lights on the North Atlantic, where Reykjavík’s coastline offers one of the best viewing spots on Earth. The Amelia Rose Northern Lights cruise takes you away from city lights for an unforgettable celestial show. Watch green, white, violet, and red lights dance across the sky, guided by expert staff on a comfortable yacht with warm indoor areas and observation decks.
The cruise lasts 1.5–2.5 hours depending on aurora activity, with warm blankets, free Wi-Fi, and drinks/snacks available for purchase. Pickup is optional for an extra charge, and check-in is at the Old Harbour House 30 minutes before departure. Weather is crucial; if conditions are unfavorable or sightings don’t occur, you can join a free return cruise or get a voucher valid for three years.
Guests should dress warmly in layers, wear sturdy shoes, and bring a camera to capture the magical aurora. The Northern Lights are unpredictable, making each tour a unique experience on the wild waters of the North Atlantic.
