Viking culture, the Northern Lights and relaxing in a wonderfully warm geothermal spa are just some of the highlights of a holiday in Reykjavik. Reykjavik has the honour of being the world’s most northerly capital city and is truly one of a kind. If you decide to go in the summer time, the sun only sets for around three hours per day, so your break will be filled with light.
Reykjavik also has a great number of museums charting various parts of the country’s illustrious and unique history. A big part of island life is its volcanoes and there are well over 100 in total, some of which are still active.
Reykjavik’s shopping scene is a healthy one with numerous central streets providing warm outdoor wear to local fashion labels. Get your walking shoes on and explore Reykjavik by foot in order to fully appreciate the buildings, cuisine and local culture.
