TOUR DESCRIPTION
 

Reykjavik City Shore Excursion

A private Reykjavik tour is the perfect way to explore Iceland's compact, walkable capital city. You will enjoy a blend of history, culture, art and local life with the personalized attention of a knowledgeable guide.

The typical sites are listed below, but your guide can adjust the route to your interests, adding stops for art, history, food and more.

Hallgrimskirkja Church is the tallest church in Iceland at about 74.5 meters (244 feet), with panoramic city views from its tower. Laugavegur Street is Reykjavik's main shopping and nightlife street, full of independent shops and street art. Tjornin Pond and City Hall form a peaceful urban lake often visited by swans and ducks. Harpa Concert Hall is a striking glass structure on the waterfront, known for its modern architecture. The Sun Voyager is a well known sculpture symbolizing exploration and Iceland's Viking past. The Old Harbor area is a lively district with colorful buildings, seafood restaurants and views across the bay.

At the end of the tour your guide can drive you back to the ship, or you can choose to grab a meal, do some shopping, and make your own way back to the ship afterward.

If you cannot find what you are looking for, our Reykjavik shore excursions can also be customized to fit your needs. If you have a larger group, we can offer you a private Reykjavik tour using a mid-size bus or full size coach. Please contact us with any questions or to receive a customized quote.
