Description

Learn about Iceland's unique and fascinating history and get to know Reykjavik by booking this incredible guided excursion. Those wanting an exclusive tour of Iceland's capital should book this private tour now.

Your tour starts when your expert English-speaking guide picks you up from your accommodation in Reykjavik in a luxury vehicle. This excursion is a private tour, so it will be just you and your party.

There's no need to wait for other guests, and you can choose the tour's start time. Your guide will also tailor the tour to your group's interests.

Reykjavik is Iceland's capital and largest city, known for its modern design, vibrant culture, and rich history.

It's a hub for exploring the country's natural wonders, with easy access to nearby attractions like the Golden Circle sightseeing route and the Blue Lagoon geothermal spa. Still, there's plenty to see in the city, too.

First, you'll head to downtown Reykjavik. Here, you will see the Parliament House, a classic 19th-century building that houses Iceland's parliament, Althingi.

You will also visit the Government House, which is now occupied by the prime minister's offices but was initially built for use as a prison.

No tour of downtown is complete without a visit to Reykjavik's iconic Hallgrimskirkja church and Harpa, the beautiful glass concert hall and conference center. The basalt landscape of Iceland inspired both buildings, and they are unique.

Just a short drive from the city's center, you'll find the Hofdi House, where Ronald Reagan, President of the United States, and Mikhail Gorbachev, President of the Soviet Union, met during the height of the Cold War.

From there, it is just a short drive to the biggest outdoor swimming pool in Iceland, Laugardalslaug, and the unique landmark building Perlan, which sits on top of old hot water storage tanks at the top of a large hill.

Just outside the city, on the Alftanes peninsula, you'll find Bessastadir, the home of the president of Iceland. This small and humble house is in stark contrast to other presidential residences around the world.

You'll make a few other stops on the way, and your professional driver and guide will tell you about each place's history and answer any questions you may have.

At the end of the tour, your guide will take you back to your accommodation in Reykjavik, ready to continue your adventures in Iceland or head home.

Explore the charming city of Reykjavik and do so in comfort and style on this private sightseeing tour. Check availability now by choosing a date.
