The Northern Lights in Iceland: Natural enchantment

Winter in Iceland involves limited daylight and extended nights. The benefit of that is ample viewing time to see the Northern Lights, which occur between September and April. While you’re there, you can stay away from the city, in a rural hotel, which might have a wakeup call when the lights appear. PLAY’s latest offer makes getting there easy.
