You pick up your card at one of the designated locations, such as the Arbaer Open Air Museum, the Maritime Museum, or any branch of the Reykjavik Art Museum.
You then sightsee at your own pace. You can walk between attractions that are close to each other or take the local buses.
Some travelers choose a 24-hour or 48-hour Reykjavik City Card, but this card gives you more time for the culture and entertainment of the city without paying extra entry fees.
You can make your own itinerary or go with the flow. You might visit a different gallery, museum, and pool each day, plan your route by location, or spend one day on museums, the next on galleries, and the third on other attractions.
The card also gives you discounts on selected tours, entertainment, and cultural experiences, including Aurora Reykjavik - The Northern Lights Center, the Iceland Symphony Orchestra, and Whales of Iceland, as well as at restaurants and other services.
