It starts with hotel pick up, a ferry ride to Viðey island, and a guided walk to the Imagine Peace Tower with interesting stopovers on the way. The tour unites history, art and nature in an interesting way and the ever changing weather conditions play an interesting part in highlighting the strength, intensity and brilliance of the Imagine Peace Tower's light.
Every year, the Imagine Peace Tower lights up the evening sky in Reykjavík from October 9th (Lennon’s day of birth) through to December 8th (Lennon’s demise). In addition, the Imagine Peace Tower also illuminates the nights from the winter solstice to the New Year, for one week during the spring equinox and on a few other selected dates.
We start the tour at Ægisgarður in Reykjavík’s Old Harbour. The sailing to Viðey island takes about 20 minutes and then our guide will walk with you to the Imagine Peace Tower where you will learn about this magnificent work of art as well as the history and nature surrounding it. If you are lucky the Northern lights might appear too, shimmering above you!
