Welcome to Aurora Expeditions’ Northern Lights Explorer expedition. Shorter days in the high latitudes means darkening evening skies, so on this voyage we stay close to the coastlines of the Arctic Circle, skirting around the Norwegian and Greenland seas, and exploring remote islands and villages of the region. As night falls, we look skywards hoping to catch the magic of the northern lights. This spectacular natural phenomenon offers a surreal light display as vibrant hues of blue, green, pink and violet dance across the night sky. Places located near the Arctic Circle such as northern Norway, Iceland and Greenland, are some of the best places in the world to witness this stunning light show.

Day-by-Day Itinerary

Please Note

Pack your flexibility: Aurora Expeditions operates in remote and challenging environments, and in the spirit of expedition travel, we encourage you to adopt a flexible and adventurous attitude when joining our voyages. This itinerary is a guide only and is subject to change due to weather, ice, sea state and other conditions beyond our control. Fitness & mobility: Your expedition offers great landings and walking opportunities. To make the most out of your landings, we do recommend that you are reasonably fit and healthy, though we always offer slower group options for those who are after a more relaxed pace. You should be confident on your feet to allow you to walk up and down the ship's gangway (equivalent to a steep set of stairs), get in and out of a Zodiac in some swell, and walk across wet, snowy and/or rocky terrain. Zodiacs: On your voyage, there is a whole world of breathtaking wilderness to discover, and at Aurora Expeditions we pride ourselves on being able to bring you closer to some of the incredible scenery and wildlife that make the region so unique. Which is why we can take you one step further with our Zodiac cruises and landings. These inflatable boats are perfect for cruising around Norway, Greenland and Iceland, giving you the chance to see the world from a completely new point of view. Your Choice shore excursions: Our ‘Your Choice’ shore excursions listed in the itinerary are included. These must be reserved through our passenger portal at least 60 days prior to embarkation and cannot be amended after this time. If we do not receive your choices by this time, you will be allocated excursions by our automated system. We will always do our best to provide you with your first preference of shore excursion; however, we may occasionally need to place you on an alternative excursion for operational reasons. Flight connections: Do not book departure flights from Reykjavik prior to 12.00 pm on the day of disembarkation, as we may experience delays at the conclusion of the voyage.  Call to Book Call us on 1 833 826 5828 Keep up to date Subscribe for special offers and new itineraries Expeditions Polar Expeditions Discovery Expeditions Expedition Add-on Tours Small Ship Cruises More Information General Inclusions What to Pack Travel with Confidence Voyage Memories Wildlife Subscribe About Aurora Our Team Purpose Media Centre Awards Frequently Asked Questions Information for AI Assistants Contact Us Brochures Group Bookings Charters Careers API Boston | New York | Dallas | Toronto Sydney | London | Chengdu | Contact us © 2026 Aurora Expeditions.
