A city break in Reykjavik has something for everyone!

A week in Reykjavik is a fantastic option for people who are overwhelmed by the idea of having to change their accommodation every night and, having to drive and follow directions every day. The Icelandic capital is very lively and offers a multitude of cultural offerings for visitors as well as a wide selection of quality establishments to stay in at night. During the day, a number of exciting excursions to Iceland’s southern coast are possible; while at night, you can soak in one of Reykjavík’s many hot tubs or explore the trendy bar and restaurant scene. The choice is yours!

Your accomodation during your Reykjavik Getaway

Take your pick: hotels, mountain huts, campsites…

Hostel

If you have a backpacker’s soul, a small budget, or are travelling to Iceland alone, this may be a good option for you.

Guesthouse

Whether they are someone’s actual home or an establishment more like a cosy and simple inn, Reykjavik guesthouses most often offer the best access to downtown.

3 Star Hotel

Three star hotels are often in the middle of downtown areas. When they are not, they are about ten minutes away by taxi or bus. The accommodations are simple but many offer possible upgrades and triple rooms if travelling as a family.

4 Star Hotel

Since extravagance and 5 star hotels are hard to come by in Iceland, these are the most deluxe options for your stay. The downtown hotels are comfortable, centrally located and reasonably spacious. They have quality restaurants and excellent efficient service.

Appartment

If you chose to do this Iceland travel with your family or in a group of friends, you can rent apartments in Reykjavik by the day or by the week.

Friendly advice for your Reykjavik Getaway:

  • Discover Reykjavík with the Reykjavík Welcome Card 
    The “Reykjavík Welcome Card” gives you access to a great number of museums including the national museum and the museum of modern art, as well as all of the city’s thermal pools, and unlimited access to it´s buses. We will give you this card along with a brochure full of useful information including hours of operation of points of interest, city maps, and maps of the public transportation system.

 

  • Day trip to the southern coast 
    Stop to discover the beautiful waterfall of Seljalandsfoss. At Skógar, you’ll fall in love with the magnificent Skógafoss waterfall, and, depending on road conditions, you’ll go to the extremity of the Solheimajökull glacial tongue or visit the folk museum at Skogar, whose vast collection of ancient objects and reconstructed traditional farmhouse will give you an idea of traditional Icelandic life and history. Arrive in Vík around lunchtime, and eat before discovering the Dyrhólaey cliffs. Take a walk on the beautiful black sand beach at Reynishverfi and delight in observing its famous basaltic columns.

 

  • Golden Circle day trip 
    Discover Iceland’s most iconic sites, that together make up Iceland’s “Golden Circle”. First, you’ll stop in Geyser to watch the famous “Strokkur” geyser, that erupts 20 metres into the air every 5 to 8 minutes. You can also visit it’s multimedia museum. From here, you’ll go on to the impressive Gulfoss falls, “Golden falls”. Visit Thingvellir, the original site of the world’s oldest existing parliamentary institution. Here, walk along the Almmannagjá fault to observe continental rift until you reach the waterfall of Öxararfoss.

 

  • Blue Lagoon Excursion 
    Don’t miss this geothermal and geologic marvel only 50km from Reykjavik. You can spend several very pleasant hours here, or even the whole day if you decide to stay for lunch or indulge in one of the many spa treatments offered on site. Swimming in this turquoise water rich in silica and mineral salt that stays at a temperature around 40° is a must for all travellers to Iceland!

 

  • Landmannalaugar Excursion 
    Take off through the southern countryside along the flanks of the famous Hekla volcano and their lava fields. Keep on in the direction of Landmannalaugar through unique untouched landscapes. Walk to discover obsidian flows, hot water sources, fumaroles, and multi-coloured rhyolite mountains. Dive into Landmannalaugar’s natural hot water river!

 

  • Reykjavik whale watching 
    Every day from the beginning of April to the end of October. Leaving from the Reykjavík harbour, this foray into the sea lasts about 3 hours. From May to mid-August, Iceland’s iconic bird, the Atlantic Puffin, is likely to be seen.

Hi Trent,
just to let you know that the Sunna hostel was great and the breakfast very good. You could not want more. The whale tour was great got to see a lot of animals, also a nice boat with a great crew. The lava cave tour was good fun got to see se nice things, and the guide was good fun and new there stuff. Never got to do the hot spring swim because we ran out of time but that is fine. Anyway it was very good, top marks for every thing! I will be back again! Thanks mate, Anthony.

Dear Myriam,
We have just returned to Brighton to the snow and the cold, (even chillier than Iceland !! ) but with wonderful memories of our long weekend in Reykjavik. The service you provided was of excellent quality. We were very pleased with the quality of our accommodations and the warm welcome we received there. We had several concerns about visiting Iceland in wintertime before leaving that turned out to be unfounded. We were worried we would not see daylight the whole time.
All of our transfers were on time. Your itinerary was lovely and perfect for us and we will definitely put our next holiday to Iceland in your hands again.
Cordially,

Eric & Barbara

Dear Iceland like a Local,
Our self drive tour was really great and everything went very well, from the greeting at the Keflavik airport to the Blue Lagoon excursion (thanks for the suggestion) on the last day. Even the weather was good; on a 15 day trip we had only two days of rain. We came back with a tan that shamed all the people who went on a beach holiday! The option of renting a little flat in Reykjavik was great. It allowed us to really experience the capital and to go on nearby short breaks (whale watching!!). We will always remember those beautiful sunsets over the volcanoes of the central highlands. We will likely be back in spring to do some bird watching.
See you soon.
