Reykjavik

Reykjavik

Dip your toes into the Blue Lagoon, stumble through rainbow painted streets, and marvel at the electric skies of the Northern Lights.

Surrounded by Iceland’s dramatic landscape, Reykjavik is a compact yet cosmopolitan city with fantastic museums, amazing street food, and quirky designs.

Among the highlights are the Perlan Museum which allows people to take in this beautiful destination from a 360-degree viewing platform, and the toweing Hallgrímskirkja church which at 244ft stands tall in the city, and has become a symbol of Icelandic national identity.

While there's so much to see and do in Reykjavik, there are some wonders to be found a short road trip away. The remarkable volcanic mountain range Esja features some brilliant walking and hiking routes, and the Laugardalur valley and park is a great place to explore.
