This experience was well worth the money as it gave a good insight into how the Aurora Borealis comes about and the film is fantastic. The staff are knowledgeable and welcoming. Free coffee was delicious and a welcome bonus, especially on a freezing day.
Nice place to wander around and learn about the northern lights. Friendly staff and free coffee. I recommend.
We went to Reykjavik beginning of March. Snow and low cloud every evening. Went to this place to see what was going on. The exhibition was most informative but they keep the best till last! The slide show at the end is impressive and the pictures are fantastic. It's like being outside but not as cold.Don't miss this place, even free coffee at the end!
I thought this was pretty expensive to enter here for what it offered. I saw the aurora on 7 nights out of the 9 I visited including two major solar storms so I was very lucky. After that, Aurora Reyjavik was a bit of a let down. Not recommended.Visited February 2014
We went with Reykjavik Excursions and were told that although it was cloudy the weather would clear about 11pm - the weather cleared at midnight just as got back on the coach after waiting outside for an hour. So we all trouped out of the coach to see the most amazing display of northern lights - so glad we got to see them - made the trip to Iceland magical !!
We saw the Aurora on the first night in iceland and it was very active at level 5, no clouds and the Aurora was going off. We later went out to the museum and the photos there were so app to the actual auroras, with no photoshop, and I find it very impressive. It is also a very informative Aurora center for those who would like to learn more about the science behind the auroras. Very worth the visit.
Small but very informative exhibition. Good interesting facts about the Northern Lights.Amazing displays and nice touch with free tea and coffee at the end of a tour.Worth a visit.
I’m sure there would be no one visiting Iceland and not interested to have a feel of lifetime to enjoying the dancing Northern lights. Tourist who were lucky to view them or tourist who were unfortunate in viewing this is an amazing place to experience. you will definitely get to learn a lot about the phenomenon as why it happens how it happens and many other actualities.They project a film which runs I think every 15minutes displaying stunning Aurora. It’s very interesting and lovely.And finally you will have a great opportunity for souvenir shopping at the end.
We spent a week in Minna Mosfell Guesthouse (on which we will soon write a review if we can think of enough superlatives to describe it) - and had a fantastic time. It was suggested to us by the proprietor that we take a visit to Aurora Reyjavik to learn more about the Northern Lights and we were not disappointed. During our visit we did not have the pleasure to see the lights, however we thoroughly enjoyed this experience which was a great second best, and would compliment nicely even if you had sen the actual lights for yourself. Very interesting material- thanks for playing your part in creating an extremely enjoyable experience - Graeme and Judith from Scotland March 2015.
This was really informative about the magnetic fields that create the aurora and not just the Icelandic ones it gives you an iinsite to all the worlds aurora's. Sadly for me this was the only Aurora I saw on this holiday.
