Based on 12 experiences
Reykjavik is quirky, safe, and interesting. There are plenty of attractions for days when the weather doesn’t agree with your plans 😅. The Perlan, Hallgrimskirkja, and rainbow road are stand outs. The food and beverages are expensive. Expect to spend $50 USD on a main and $12 USD on a beer.

We visited Iceland between July 2-5 and want to share our experience from this short trip. We traveled with British Airways as Lufthansa canceled the flight and missed a night. Sofia-London-Reykjavik. On the way back with Lufthansa Reykjavik Vienna Sofia We liked the Sky Lagoon the most—a very good place to relax with the so-called Infinity pool. I had taken the Pure Pass, the seven-step spa ritual offered by the lagoon. It was organized by Reykjavik Excursions and we are delighted. The departure time is fixed, and the return time is free - every hour there are buses from the lagoon to Reykjavík. An important clarification is that it is also suitable for people who cannot swim. Even diving is prohibited in principle. It's a good idea to bring a waterproof phone case if you're going to take pictures, but even without taking pictures, the experience is wow. No photography allowed, but everyone was taking pictures. We didn’t. The next day we went on a full day trip organized by Tourism Iceland including Reynisfjara black beach, the south coast in general and Skógafoss and Seljalandsfoss waterfalls. We also saw the Sólheimajökull glacier, which personally impressed me a lot. There are large icebergs that were half black. There were tourists doing the glacier hike with special equipment, but we were not among them. I also want to recommend 2 restaurants — with very good lamb. Tides restaurant is located in a hotel, if you're looking for it by navigation, you won't think it's part of a hotel (like we didn't haha). As is Fjalkonan. We had a lamb burger at Fjalkonan and a Uruguayan steak and another lamb at Tides. The country is famous for its wonderful lamb and the famous lopapeysa wool sweaters. We also walked to the famous church in Reykjavik. Overall, we really liked Reykjavik. At least where we were staying. There was a large pond with birds. We used Airbnb and everything cost us about EUR 2000 for two people for 4 days. I am attaching some pictures. And I wish everyone to visit Iceland for more time and independently, not with an agency. This is our experience. For the next time, we reserved the Magic Ice Bar, Blue Lagoon or Myvatn, Hvamsvik, another lagoon if anyone has a recommendation, as well as Cat 🐈 cafe Kattakaffihusid & Omnom ice cream.
