Local Living Iceland—Northern Lights & Reykjavík
5 days, Reykjavik to Reykjavik
Sorry! There are no remaining departures for "Local Living Iceland—Northern Lights & Reykjavík" (ELNL),but here are some similar trips.
It’s one thing to look at photos of the majestic Northern Lights – it’s definitely another to see them for yourself while living in Iceland for five days. While we’ll absolutely take some time to go in search of the Lights, we’ll also include some local elements to best connect you to winter life in Reykjavík – think visiting a local flea market, buying fish for a cooking class, and touring this beautiful city. The CEO is a native Icelander and will be able to impart loads of knowledge about customs and daily life. Throw in some free time to keep this trip extra customizable and you’ve got an Iceland living experience to remember.
