What travelers are saying
Great walking tour with a Viking! He provided the highlights of old town, including a stop by the oldest existing house in Reykjavik, some shops to buy authentic Icelandic sweaters, samples of Icelandic treats, and ended at the impressive cathedral on the hill! He gave us a true Icelandic experience!
Fun walking tour of Reykjavík! Polli was a great guide and even looked like a Viking! Highly recommend!
Great experience! Shared lots of good insight and information about Iceland and Reykjavik. Would take another tour by Magnus.
Borg was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and took our questions about the area and its history in stride. We enjoyed our walk about the city very much.
It was ok. Nothing outstanding and nothing to complain about. For that I would have to say it was a bit disappointing.
Tour guide was great
Fair, a little disorganized initially and hard to hear the guide at times. Guide was very friendly and was trying to accommodate a variety of abilities on the tour.
Very interesting and informative tour
