Private Walk With a Viking - Reykjavik Walking Tour

Our Reykjavik walking tour is your introduction to our country. It will help you get your bearings and make the most of your stay in Iceland. We recommend it as your first stop in Reykjavik.

Our family-friendly tour brings the history of Iceland to life with exciting stories and Icelandic mythology. We’ll visit all of the famous landmarks in the city center, such as Harpa Concert Hall, Reykjavik Harbour, Hallgrímskirkja Church, Reykjavik Pond, and the Parliament building.

But, we’ll also share hidden, local spots with you like a visit to an Elf home, things you’d miss if you didn’t know what to look for.

We want you to feel the unique, friendly atmosphere of our quirky little city, not just to see the most popular tourist attractions. We’ll be showing you our favorite places to eat, drink and visit.

Guide was very nice and we only missed finding one of the well known cats. Lots of petting in shops which thrilled my daughter. Fun to be at a cat cafe and have hot chocolate and local pastry. We saw parts we would not have but connected up with the main sights in old town.

Great tour of the peninsula with some interesting and varied stops along the way, and our guide was knowledgeable and fun! This tour was a good introduction to Iceland on the way from the airport to Reykjavik!
