What People Are Saying About Reykjavik

Sky Lagoon

avatar
M.M.R. Maruf
Sky Lagoon offers a breathtaking geothermal spa experience with stunning ocean views. The warm, mineral-rich waters, combined with the unique seven-step ritual, provide ultimate relaxation. The infinity-edge design enhances the feeling of serenity, making it a must-visit in Iceland. The facilities are well-maintained, and the ambiance is both modern and tranquil. While it can be pricey, the experience is truly worth it. Perfect for unwinding and soaking in Iceland’s natural beauty.

Hallgrimskirkja

Hallgrímskirkja Cathedral in Iceland is a very monumental church. From the outside, it looks very simple and elegant. According to the locals, this church was built for about half a century.

Whale Watching Reykjavík

橙橙橙橙橙一
I recommend Iceland's itinerary to find fun, see the whales, it feels worth it, life becomes alive at that moment, seasickness is not very good, it is recommended that you eat less before departure, overall it is very good

Perlan

Perlan is a beautiful musuem, perfect for a leisure day in Reykjavik. If you only visit one attraction in reykjavik, it has to be perlan. (you can skip aurora reykjavik and lava show) We took the bus 18 to ‘perlan’ bus stop where we walked through a little garden. there was a lot of people on a rainy tuesday afternoon. we easily spent about 3 hours there: watch shows about volcano and aurora, enter ice cave & learn about iceland’s geology. Apparently the restaurant rotates around in the dome, but we didn’t have time to try.

Aurora Reykjavík - The Northern Lights Center

徐徐霞客Rr
The Northern Lights Center in Reykjavik, Iceland, this place listens to the locals to introduce it is an aurora viewing center completed by four young people in an independent business. The most important thing to go to Iceland is to chase the aurora. This place is very good to watch the laser style.

Lake Tjornin

Tonin Lake is an important attraction in Iceland's capital worth visiting. The lake is close to the city hall. You can visit the city hall by the way. There are many colorful small houses by the lake. There are swans, lake ducks, and birds in the lake, which attracts the love of many tourists, especially children. You can interact with the seabirds here to play, feed, have fun, there are chic European-style buildings with spires and chic bridges by the lake, and a different interesting statue stands here, his upper body is a huge square shaped stone, The lower half is a man carrying a briefcase, which can be interpreted as a modern urban office worker working hard for life and busy... It is great to stroll around the lake and watch the vast lake scenery with a cool breeze!

National Museum of Iceland

Trip.com Travel online tickets can be checked on the spot, which is very convenient. Scan the code and choose the voice to listen to the explanation. There is WiFi, flowing! If there is enough time, it is recommended to go slowly, there is a simmer on the first floor. Coffee is very fragrant.

Sun Voyager

徐徐霞客Rr
Iceland's Sun Voyager is a very famous building in Iceland. It may seem abstract to you, so please make a plan when you go there, or ask the locals. The history of the National People's Congress is quite interesting, and it is also a square that the locals love very much.

Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre

The Harpa Concert Hall is located in the center of Reykjavik, Iceland's capital. The glass building is not very conspicuous from the outside, but it is very distinctive from the inside, with elegant lines and abstractions.
