Additional information about Northern Lights: keep in mind that the Northern Lights in Iceland are not guarantee as the unpredictable weather conditions mean we cannot guarantee the excursions will go ahead.
If the Northern Lights don’t make an appearance, don’t worry—you can try again on another day! Refunds for the excursion are not available, but you’re welcome to join until you experience this natural spectacle.
Please note: double beds in Iceland hotels are not always the standard American size and can sometimes be less wide.
Tips: we advise to bring good shoes since in winter many sites may be covered in snow as well as their paths. The ground in Iceland can be slippery, wet, or icy. You may want to consider bringing or purchasing a pair of removable spikes (also known as crampons) to place on your shoes to aid with stability and grip. Also, you can bring your swimsuit, even if you don´t plan to swim. You might change your mind once you see the warm steaming lagoon!
If travelling with Fly Play, we recommend that you check your luggage online in order to avoid extra fees. The reservation only includes one piece of hand luggage per person (40 cm x 20 cm x 25 cm), which must be placed underneath the seat in front of you on the plane. Additional baggage may be purchased in advance on the airline’s website. Any luggage item larger than the aforementioned dimensions that is not reserved in advance will be subject to additional charges in the airport.
Most flights to Iceland from North America arrive very early in the morning. As a result, early check-in is not widely available and may be subject to availability. If this is important to you, please contact us in advance to see what can be arranged.
