Meet the Arctic Fox! 🦊

Check out this Arctic Fox in her dark summer coat! Did you know she changes colors with the seasons? In summer, she's this dark brown/grey to blend with rocks, and in winter, she turns white to match the snow. Her thick fur keeps her cozy in freezing temperatures, and she stores food for the winter.

An adaptable eater, she enjoys small animals, berries, and even seaweed. Arctic Foxes are true survivors in the wild! 🌨️❄️

Summer in Iceland means freedom for the sheep! 🐐🌞

From June to September, Icelandic sheep roam freely across the beautiful landscapes. They are super curious and love to explore. Did you know that there are less than 1,000 Icelandic sheep left? They are a rare and special breed!

Here are some fun facts:

🐐 Icelandic sheep have been here since the Viking Age.
🌿 They love to munch on fresh summer grass and wild herbs.

The puffins are back in Iceland! 🐧

Soon, we'll be spotting them on our South Coast tours near Dyrhólaey.

Did you know that puffins are expert divers, capable of diving more than 60 meters (200 feet) to hunt for fish? These charming seabirds spend most of their lives at sea but return to land each year to nest in large colonies along coastal cliffs.

Experience the breathtaking Reynisfjara black sand beach on our Small Group South Coast tour! 🖤

Walk on unique black sand and let the majestic cliffs wow you. But beware, this beauty comes with danger. The powerful waves and sneaky rip currents can catch you off-guard. Remember to admire from a safe distance.

Wondering how we kicked off 2024? ✨

As we start the new year, we can't help but reflect on the extraordinary moments shared with you.

Ever wondered what goes into making these memories so special? It's our incredible guides and team and the unpredictable dance with nature during our Northern Lights Tours!

Curious minds might ask, why is the Northern Lights tour the most challenging tour? Well, picture this – checking countless forecasts, making difficult decisions relying on unpredictable weather, and sometimes going out into the night with high hopes only to return without a sighting. Nature's surprises are part of the thrill!

The start of this year has already brought its own set of challenges– Lots of snow and icy roads. But then, we were gifted with a beautiful aurora show.
Now, we know we can't guarantee that the Northern Lights will always make an appearance, but we want you to know that we'll go above and beyond to ensure you have an amazing experience and create unforgettable memories.
