3. Cozy Buses

While it is possible to see the northern lights in the skies over Reykjavík, your best bet at seeing them in their full splendor is to get as far from the light pollution of the city as possible. With such features as reclining seats, free Wi-Fi, and air-suspension, Gray Line’s coaches will keep you warm and comfortable, no matter where the hunt for the lights may take you.
