Aurora domes: our luxury Iceland camp

Iceland’s first, one-of-a-kind glass igloos

We’ve created this unique camp setup, exclusively for our private clients. Entirely custom built, our aurora domes provide special, luxurious access to otherwise-untouched corners of this geographically rich country.

Here, it’s set up on a frozen lake under winter’s northern lights, backdropped by a sheer glacier. Then, in the summer, it becomes a floating basecamp on a lake in the Icelandic highlands – all immersed within the never-setting phenomenon of the midnight sun.

It’s the ultimate off-grid, leave-no-trace accommodation, creating exclusive luxury that immerses you in a wilderness destination. And, it’s all custom built to you, whether that’s a massage centre or a dance floor on ice. Whatever you choose, it’s the perfect combination with a stay in one of Iceland’s world-class properties.

All photography and footage you see on this page is entirely our own.

From multi-heli journeys to being the first into the country after it reopened in 2020, we have a long history in pioneering exclusive experiences in Iceland. And, this is our latest offering.

Delivering the ultimate in exclusivity for your group, it’s luxury in Iceland’s most remote reaches. You’ll stay in a series of unique igloo-styled domes, with a leave-no-trace setup that employs solar panels and sustainable biofuel cells to power cosy heating and en suites alike.

It’s all set to panoramic views straight from the bed, whether of the northern lights or midnight sun.

And, with the camp exclusively hand-crafted to your specification, there are personal touches throughout. Think sundowners at the ice bar or visits to the wood-fired sauna and hot tub to add an element of wellness. There’s even a fishing hole built into your dome’s floor, allowing you to hook the catch of the day to be prepared by your private chef.

And what’s more, it’s all a front-row seat to a seemingly endless playground of outdoor adventure. Think epic ice-climbing with pickaxes, kayaking with whales and e-foiling on immense glacial lakes. That’s alongside plenty of high-adrenaline exploration by snowmobile and fat bike.

Custom-built comforts

Hand-crafted from the ground up, the camp will be enhanced with plenty of special touches. Think private-chef meals and hot showers in stylish geodesic domes, along with an ice bar for a special Arctic sundowner or a wood-fired hot tub with a view. We can even create your very own polar plunge pool, cut into the ice for the ultimate in extreme wintery dips.

Front-row phenomena

Staying in a truly secluded location, enjoy all-hours access to Iceland’s otherworldly wilds. Far removed from any civilisation, you’ll witness the majestic displays of a celestial phenomenon – think the elusive aurora borealis or the near-constant daylight of the summer’s midnight sun right on your doorstep.

Luxury in the wilderness

For a touch of comfort in these extreme surrounds, these domes combine luxurious touches with floor-to-ceiling windows that welcome in the views. As well as en-suite facilities and a queen-sized bed, each well-appointed hut includes the likes of Wi-Fi, a Bluetooth sound system and a personal temperature-controlled thermostat, too.

Adventure on the water

From swimming with guillemots and humpbacks to Arctic surfing, remote canyoning and kayaking right among the icebergs, Iceland’s geography delivers an outstanding launchpad for on-the-water fun. Donning drysuits, to our knowledge, we were the first to bring the thrill of an e-foil to its remote glacial lagoons.

Iceland by heli

Flying epic routes that we’ve pioneered on our past adventures, take to the skies to experience some of Iceland’s greatest natural shows. Think erupting volcanos and sea-straddled ocean pillars to heli-skiing down untouched slopes under the midnight sun.

Extreme dining

Whether it’s lunching in an ice cave, a remote picnic overlooking a glacial lagoon or bringing in an award-winning Icelandic chef to your own private restaurant, we’ll enhance dining setups and group celebrations with plenty of the unique.

Epic off-roading

Amp up the adrenaline and explore Iceland’s harder-to-reach areas. Explore barren lava fields in SuperJeeps, race custom courses in all-terrain buggies and join expert guides to scale sheer frozen walls. We can even bring in specially designed fat bikes to help you ride out across the ice with speed.
