Reykjavík Northern Lights Bus Tour with a Chinese Speaking Guide 冰岛雷市中文极光团

The guiding is in Chinese from start to finish, covering how the aurora forms and the myths that circulated about it long before the physics arrived. The coach is heated and air conditioned, usually a 48 to 57 seat tour bus. If fewer than 19 people book, the tour may run in a minibus instead. If fewer than 10 book, it may share a coach with the English language group, though the Chinese guiding continues either way. Ten is also the minimum for the Chinese tour to run at all, and if a date falls short the operator says it will tell you as early as it can. Where the bus goes is decided each night from the latest aurora forecast and the weather, which is how a fixed itinerary would lose you the sky. At each stop there is time to get out and photograph whatever the sky is doing, rather than watching through a window.
