Solar Eclipse Tours
Witness One of Nature’s Greatest Spectacles with The Adventure People
Step into the Moon’s shadow and experience one of the most extraordinary sights on Earth — a total solar eclipse. For a few unforgettable moments, the midday sky darkens, stars emerge, and the Sun’s glowing corona blazes like a celestial crown. It’s a phenomenon that leaves even seasoned travellers speechless.
At The Adventure People, we create expert-led solar eclipse holidays that combine perfect viewing conditions, cultural immersion, and a sense of wonder you’ll never forget.
What Is a Solar Eclipse and Why Is It So Special?
A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly between the Earth and the Sun, temporarily blocking sunlight and casting a shadow across our planet. When totality happens — the brief period when the Sun is completely covered — the world changes. The air cools, light fades to twilight, and the horizon glows in a surreal 360° sunset.
Because totality is visible only from a narrow path across the Earth, each eclipse has its own unique location, weather, and story — making every one a once-in-a-lifetime event. For travellers seeking something rare and meaningful, it’s the ultimate natural spectacle.
Why Join a Guided Solar Eclipse Tour?
Watching an eclipse isn’t just about where you stand — it’s about how you experience it. Travelling with a specialist guide ensures you make the most of every moment.
Expertly Planned for the Best Viewing
The path of totality is narrow — often less than 100 miles wide — and small changes in location can make all the difference. Our guides work with astronomers and local experts to pinpoint the best possible viewing spots, ensuring you witness the full spectacle of totality.
Weather Flexibility
Our itineraries are designed with built-in flexibility, allowing us to adapt if weather conditions change. We go where the skies are clearest.
Insight and Enrichment
Each trip includes guided talks and briefings that bring the science — and the magic — to life. You’ll understand the phases, the corona, and the extraordinary alignment that makes eclipses so rare.
Comfort and Connection
We handle every detail — from accommodation and transfers to meals and cultural experiences — so you can focus on the experience itself. You’ll travel with like-minded adventurers who share your curiosity and excitement.
Top Destinations for Solar Eclipse Tours
Iceland: Fire, Ice, and Celestial Light
With its dramatic volcanic landscapes, mirror-like lakes, and sweeping open skies, Iceland is a dream destination for eclipse chasers. The country’s low light pollution and wide horizons make for breathtaking views, while geothermal lagoons, lava caves, and waterfalls offer incredible adventures before and after the event.
Combine your eclipse experience with an exploration of Iceland’s natural wonders — and, with a little luck, the Northern Lights too.

The Atlas Mountains, Morocco: A Celestial Theatre
The high plateaus of Morocco’s Atlas Mountains offer clear skies, stable weather, and a spectacular backdrop for the eclipse. Watch the Moon’s shadow sweep across desert peaks and ancient kasbahs — a setting that feels timeless and otherworldly.
After the event, explore Marrakech’s bustling souks, journey into the Sahara, and immerse yourself in Berber hospitality.

Join The Adventure People for a guided solar eclipse tour that combines adventure, learning, and pure awe.

What is a solar eclipse?
A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes directly between the Earth and the Sun, casting a shadow across our planet. When perfectly aligned, the Moon completely covers the Sun’s disc — this is called a total solar eclipse. For a few extraordinary minutes, day turns to twilight, stars appear, and the Sun’s corona (its glowing outer atmosphere) becomes visible. It’s one of nature’s most beautiful and rare spectacles.
Why should I travel to see a solar eclipse?
Solar eclipses can only be seen from specific locations along a narrow path — known as the path of totality — which changes with each event. Travelling to the right spot gives you the best possible view and turns a rare celestial event into a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Combining this with cultural and scenic exploration makes the journey even more special.
Why join a guided solar eclipse tour instead of travelling independently?
A guided tour ensures you’re in the right place at the right time. Our eclipse experts and local guides use precise astronomical data and weather forecasts to select the best viewing location — and can move the group if clouds threaten the view. You’ll also enjoy seamless logistics, comfortable accommodation, and expert insights that deepen your understanding of what you’re seeing.
Where are the best places to see a solar eclipse?
Some of the world’s most breathtaking eclipse-viewing destinations include:
Iceland – with vast open landscapes, minimal light pollution, and stunning backdrops of glaciers and volcanoes.
The Atlas Mountains, Morocco – offering clear skies, high-altitude plateaus, and a beautiful mix of desert and mountain scenery.
- Each destination combines reliable conditions with rich cultural and natural attractions.
What happens during a total solar eclipse?
As the Moon moves across the Sun, daylight fades to an eerie twilight, temperatures drop, and animals may fall silent. At totality — when the Sun is fully obscured — you’ll see the corona, the Sun’s ethereal outer glow, surrounding a black disc. The entire event lasts a few hours, but totality itself usually lasts just 2–4 minutes — an unforgettable moment of pure awe.
What should I bring on a solar eclipse tour?
We recommend packing:
Eclipse viewing glasses (ISO-certified for safety)
A light jacket (temperatures can drop suddenly during totality)
Camera or binoculars with solar filters
A tripod for photography
Comfortable clothing and footwear for your location (e.g., layers for Iceland, light attire for Morocco)
All essential viewing gear and safety guidance are provided on our tours.
Is it safe to look at a solar eclipse?
Yes — as long as you use proper eye protection. Looking directly at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses can cause permanent eye damage. During totality only — when the Sun is fully covered — it’s safe to look with the naked eye. Your guide will explain exactly when and how to view safely.
What makes The Adventure People’s Solar Eclipse Tours unique?
We combine expert planning, flexibility, and immersive travel. Each tour is led by experienced guides who balance scientific insight with a sense of adventure. Our itineraries include not just the eclipse itself, but local culture, cuisine, and exploration — turning an astronomical event into a complete travel experience.
Can I combine a solar eclipse tour with other adventures?
Absolutely! Many travellers extend their trip to make the most of the destination. In Iceland, you might explore the Golden Circle, glacier lagoons, and the Northern Lights. In Morocco, you can trek through the Atlas Mountains, visit Marrakech, or ride camels into the Sahara. Our travel experts can help tailor your journey.
