Explore the museums, galleries, and geothermal pools of Reykjavik with the Reykjavik City Card.
The card gives you free entry to 17 museums and attractions, plus 8 geothermal pools in the Reykjavik capital area. If you plan to visit more than two attractions, the card saves you money.
The card is also valid for Reykjavik Family Park and Zoo, public buses in the capital region, and the ferry to Videy Island, and it gives you discounts on selected tours, attractions, restaurants, and services.
With the card, you have free entry to the following attractions:
National Gallery of Iceland
National Museum of Iceland

You also get discounts at many more venues.
Most of the places where you pick up your card are included in it, so you can start exploring right away.
You choose which attractions to visit. Some are close together, so you can walk between them, and you can take a city bus to explore farther afield.
The Settlement Exhibition, Hafnarhus, the Museum of Photography, the National Gallery of Iceland, and the National Museum of Iceland are all within walking distance in the city center. In between, you can visit landmarks such as Tjornin Pond and Hallgrimskirkja Church.
After the museums and galleries, you can bathe in one of the geothermal pools, a favorite local pastime. Sundhollin Pool is near Hallgrimskirkja Church, or you can take a bus to whichever pool you like.
Reykjavik is the northernmost capital in the world, and the card is a good-value way for independent travelers to get to know it.
