Iceland 3 nights including Northern Lights - realistic clothes

[Liquid_Entity]

Hi all,

Venturing off to Iceland for a 3 night stay in November and we've got a night trip to northern lights(hopefully) and then a day trekking about then a free day the 3rd day. We've googled what clothing to wear but we're on a bit of a budget with clothes buying so wondering if anyone has any advice on what definitely needs buying and what is probably a waste of money.

I'm naturally always baking hot and sweat loads even in winter and in coats and my wife's always cold even in the middle of summer.

Also anyone got any ideas what to do in Rejavik on the free 3rd day. So any tips would be great.

Thanks both. It says average temps in November are 4c so I can imagine it drops quite a bit at times.

That thermal beach sounds good but in November is that viable. The blue lagoon does seem very overpriced for a 2hr visit.

We know Iceland is very expensive so we've said this will be an alcohol free trip and limited food expense but want to treat the wife to at least one good night.

Thanks everyone for all the advice. Think will just buy some thermal underwear, gloves, hat and a winter coat. Everything else is just normal.

Someone mentioned brewery tour, is it beer or lager cos I don't like beer. I've looked up a few pages and lots of walking tours around rejakavic. We're doing golden circle tour and northern lights tour. 3rd day still isn't decided yet. I'm nor good with boats so whale watching ain't my first choice.
