Many people think they will have a better view of Northern Lights if they go to the north of Iceland. It’s not true. When you are in this beautiful nation, you are already in the north of the planet. You can see them from anywhere, no matter where you are located. The more relevant thing which you should pay attention to is the cloud cover. No matter how active the lights are, you will not be able to see them if it is cloudy.

Iceland Tours

 Many tourists who book different types of holiday packages in Iceland including the Iceland hiking and Northern Lights tours suggest people to read the forecast before making plans to see this beautiful creation. You can see them from wherever the sky is clear.  The tourists are also curious to know the best time of the night to see Iceland Northern Lights.  It is a difficult task to tell whether they will come at 8 pm or midnight, or whether they will be out for 4 minutes or 8 hours. So you should be well-prepared when you are on the tour to watch these amazing lights.

The Iceland Northern Lights come in wide range of colors with varying intensity and brightness and in different shapes. They occur in the sky when electrically charged particles from the sun get inside the earth’s atmosphere and bombard with the gas particles.
