However\, with proper planning\, shared accommodation\, self-drive tours\, and group trips\, you can significantly reduce your expenses. A typical Iceland tour from India can cost anywhere between ₹1.5 lakh and ₹4 lakh depending on the duration\, season\, accommodation\, and activities included. Joining an Iceland group tour is one of the best ways to explore Iceland on a budget while enjoying the country’s incredible landscapes\, waterfalls\, glaciers\, volcanoes\, and Northern Lights. \nWhat is the best month to see Northern Lights in Iceland?\nThe best time to see the Northern Lights in Iceland is between September and April\, when the nights are long and dark. October\, November\, February\, and March are particularly popular months because they offer a good balance of Northern Lights activity\, road accessibility\, and sightseeing opportunities. Our Iceland Northern Lights Tour in October is scheduled during one of the best periods for viewing the Aurora Borealis while also enjoying Iceland’s famous Ring Road attractions. \nDo Indians need a visa for Iceland?\nYes\, Indian passport holders need a Schengen Visa to visit Iceland. Since Iceland is part of the Schengen Area\, a valid Schengen tourist visa allows you to travel to Iceland and other participating European countries.
