Reykjavik City Walk and Whales

We meet up at Ingólfur Square in the center of Reykjavik by the two stone pillars (3 meters high) at 10 am (10:00) (By Aðalstræti).

Our Reykjavik walking tour is your introduction to Iceland. It will help you get your bearings and make the most of your stay in Iceland.

W recommend it as your first stop in Reykjavik (well, maybe check into your accommodation and drop your bags off first).  Our family-friendly tour brings the history of Iceland to life with exciting stories and Icelandic mythology.  We’ll visit all of the famous landmarks in the city center, such as Harpa Concert Hall, Reykjavik Harbour, Hallgrímskirkja Church (we’ll teach you how to pronounce that), Reykjavik Pond and the Parliament building.  We'll be showing you our favorite places to eat, drink and visit (we also have an intimate knowledge of happy hour deals we're happy to share.

But, we’ll also share hidden, local spots with you like a visit to an Elf home; things you’d miss if you didn’t know what to look for.

The city tour takes approximately 2 hours and when you have finished your orientation.

Then you have time to grab a quick lunch from around 12 - 1 pm (maybe the one and only Icelandic Hot dog?) before heading down to the harbor and starting the next adventure.  Your Whale Watching Tour on the ship Andrea leaves at 1 pm (13:00) from the Old Harbour in Reykjavík.

Warm floatable overalls are provided for your comfort & safety – overalls are also available in children’s sizes!

The Andrea is a large and comfortable boat that has an educational & interactive focus on-board so you will keep learning while enjoying the fantastic views of the mountains that surround Reykjavík. The most common species seen in Faxaflói bay are Minke Whales, Humpback Whales, White Beaked Dolphins, and Harbour Porpoises.
