As a special treat, we offer a photo tour Iceland Polar Light Snæfellsnes over the turn of the year.
On this New Year’s Eve northern lights photo tour, we stay on the Snæfellsnes peninsula. With the famous Kirkjufellberg, Kirkjufellfoss, the old wooden church Budir, the dreamy villages of Olafsvik and Stykkisholmur, we have plenty of great aurora photo motifs.
The focus of this tour is the Northern Lights. The daily program depends on the weather and we decide spontaneously on the excursions. In addition to photography, we will also have enough time for image processing and discussing images together. We will spend the first and last night of the trip in Gardur near the airport.
The aurora borealis (aurora borealis at the North Pole, aurora australis at the South Pole) is a luminous phenomenon caused by excited nitrogen and oxygen atoms in the high atmosphere (electrometeor), which is produced in polar regions when accelerated charged particles from the Earth’s magnetosphere collide with the atmosphere. Auroras can usually be seen in two bands of about 3 to 6 degrees of latitude near the magnetic poles. At this time of year, auroras can often be observed, weather permitting. Incidentally, thanks to the Gulf Stream, temperatures in Iceland fluctuate between 5 degrees below zero and 5 degrees above zero in winter.
This Iceland Polar Light Snæfellsnes photo tour is the perfect opportunity to expand your portfolio with great photos of auroras and the beautiful landscape.

Do you want to experience a great trip where you can fully concentrate on taking photos and experiencing wonderful moments? Then Amazing Views is the right place for you. Everything was perfectly organised on our Lofoten trip. Jenny and Cody looked after us wonderfully throughout the whole trip. Thanks to them both, we got the best out of the most varied weather conditions. As a great bonus, I was able to meet some wonderful new colleagues during the week. To summarise: we had a wonderful time with lots of unique pictures....you guys are amazing.
Those who are not afraid of windy, damp and cool weather will be rewarded with the most spectacular, wild and lonely coastal landscapes in Europe on the Faroe Islands. Bernard, the professional photographer and guide from Ireland who knows the Faroe Islands inside out, and Jenny Brühlmann from Amazing Views are the best guarantee that every participant will take home the maximum number of experiences and great pictures. The fact that fun is not neglected is the icing on the cake.
Thanks to Jenny and Cody, despite the bad weather we were always in a place where the sun provided a great lighting mood for a short time. Jenny and Cody are a well-rehearsed team who took care of everything for us so that we could concentrate on taking pictures. The tips and tricks on image composition and editing were also very valuable. I can highly recommend the photo trip to the Lofoten Islands with Amazing Views. I'm looking forward to the next photo trip with you.
The name ‘Amazing Views’ was the programme and true in every respect. From the announcement and organisation of the trip, to the choice of accommodation, the tour guide and the choice of locations, everything was perfect. Of course, the weather and the chosen time of the trip in autumn played a major role. And they went perfectly with the impeccably organised photo tour. The size of the group was very pleasant and allowed everyone to be looked after according to their individual needs. The tour participants' suggestions and wishes were also taken into account. I can recommend a photo tour with Amazing Views to the island of Senja in autumn in every respect, although basic photographic knowledge and a good level of physical fitness are an advantage.
What a fantastic trip. The Faroe Islands offer incredible photo opportunities: jagged cliffs, waterfalls, blue fjords, wild and rugged coastlines and ever-changing weather and light moods. Together with the perfect organisation by Amazing Views and the friendly tour guide Jenny and Bernard, it was an unforgettable week. I would book again in a heartbeat.
‘Unknown Norway’, this year for the first time as a photo tour in the Amazing Views programme, was very well organised and smoothly executed. The travel programme sent in advance with lots of information and detailed recommendations for packing lists and photographic equipment aroused my curiosity and expectations. In short, it was perfect: the planning and the photographic and travel support were highly professional and hitch-free. The group worked extremely well as a team and I enjoyed a great week with them. My special thanks go to Cody who generously looked after us all week, acted as a safe driver and took us to all the wonderful places I had never been before. It was my 4th photo trip with Amazing Views and once again my expectations were exceeded.
Thanks to the perfect photo guide with great knowledge of the location and weather, we were always in the right place at the right time and used the changing weather to our advantage. Epic locations and capricious weather made for great pictures and great experiences with thrills. The professional support and the ideal group size rounded off the harmonious overall package.
The photo tour "Unknown Norway" has an incredible number of photo highlights to offer. It was extremely varied and had many different subjects to offer. Thanks to the midnight sun, we were out and about a lot and were able to capture fantastic light moods with our cameras. The trip is not in the usual tourist areas of Norway and that makes it particularly attractive from my point of view. Once again, everything was superbly organized, as I am used to from my last trip with Amazing Views. Everything went very smoothly. I'm already looking forward to my next photo trip.
