Cruise to Iceland with MSC Preziosa

On the hunt for the Northern Lights

The Aurora Borealis or "Northern Dawn" is one of the most magical sights on earth. It happens, when the solar wind reaches the Earth's magnetosphere and depending on the height of this encounter, the glow can have different colors. September is the period when the dance of lights can be observed in Iceland and if we are lucky, this will be our most amazing experience during the cruise.
