Things To Do

Blue Lagoon

This lagoon is not the newest one, but it certainly may be the most beautiful and picturesque. The blue algae that naturally coats this hot spring is known to have soothing effects for the skin. Treat yourself to a fancy face mask and grab a drink at the underground bar and you will be sure to have a spa day unlike any other.

Sky Lagoon

One of the newest and trendiest lagoons in Iceland. The cold plunge and hot sauna experience will leave a lasting mark on your memory.

Horseback Riding

Black Sand Beach Vik

Self Driving tour

Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre

Lebowski Bar

The Drunk Rabbit Irish Pub

The Icelandic Phallological Museum (Hið Íslenzka Reðasafn)

Hike Mt. Esja

Great short hike close to Reykjavik with great views. It's the big mountain you see across the ocean in Reykjavik and you can hike to the top in about 3 hours.

Glacier Hike and/or Ice Climbing

Hiking a glacier is a really fun and unique experience, no experience necessary.

Diamond Beach

See giant crystal icebergs washed up on a black sand beach.

Jökulsárlón (Glacial Lagoon)

Near diamond beach. You can even take a boat tour or kayak through the lagoon and mingle with the seals that make it their home.

Dill Restaurant

One of Icelands finest Michelin star restaurants. Nordic cuisine focused on using local ingredients. Highly recommend. Must make reservations early.

White Water Rafting

Iceland has some excellent white water rafting and it's a great way to see the beautiful Icelandic nature and release some adrenalin along the way. No experience necessary, all levels available.

Hike and camp in Laugavegur

Rated as one of the most beautiful hikes in the world by National Geographic and I tend to agree. If you are up for a real challenge you can do the whole thing which is around 54 km in 2-4 days and camp along the way.

Hike Fimmvörðuháls

This is an incredible point to point hike which can be done in 1 day. It sits between two glaciers and offers some the most incredible views and waterfalls you will see in Iceland.

Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur

Icelandic hot dogs are made with lamb and are the most popular street food. This of the oldest hot dog and greatest hot dog stands stands in Reykjavik. They make their own mustard, ketchup and remoulade. I recommend getting "Eina með öllu", one with everything.

Jungle Cocktail Bar

Great cocktail bar with in Reykjavik with great vibes.
