Great experience, do it.

August 17, 2026 we did the Reykjavik Food Walk with our guide Jenny. The food, the information about Iceland and the guide were excellent. I had rather low expectations for Icelandic food and was pleasantly surprised. Other than the fermented shark (which was still worth having just for the experience), the cuisine was excellent! Our guide, Jenny was also excellent. She was knowledgeable, fun, upbeat and unless you knew better you’d think she was American based on her accent and familiarity with American culture. All in all a fun, delicious experience.

Great Food Walking Tour

The Reykjavik Food Walking Tour was a lot of fun. I won't usually order new things on my own to try, so I like to do food tours to try different local foods. I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked all the food given to us. Thor, our guide, was very informative, entertaining, and passionate about the food scene in Reykjavik. I would highly recommend this tour, especially if you aren't a "foodie!"
