The Reykjavik CatWalk
Join us in Reykjavik for a Cattastic private Walking tour of downtown Reykjavik.
This is a private City Walking Tour with a firm focus on our feline companions.
We will follow in the Paw Prints of cats since the settlement of Iceland.
Together we will explore the myths about Cats in Iceland and the world? We will even explore tails from Cat’s Hiss-story throughout the world.
Included in our tour is even a visit to the one and only Reykjavik Cat Coffeehouse to pet some cats while we sip on Coffee or Hot Cocoa and taste Icelandic pastry.
If we are fur-fortunate enough and the Cat gods allow, there is the Paw-sibility that we catch a glimpse of the most famous Cats of downtown Reykjavik, Baktus, Jonsi, and Ofelia to name a few.
We will start up by the pillars at Ingólfur Square and our final destination is the Statue Garden of Einar Jonsson by Hallgrimskirkja Church.
This is a Purrfect 2 hour City Walk in Reykjavik for Cat Lovers

5.00The cats are an Independent People. You will not always get to see them, but they probably have something else, just as important, to do anyway. Dont worry. Baldi has plenty of stories to tell, has local knowledge to share, and is happy to answer any questions, including 'How does one talk to an Icelandic Kisi.
Cute tour!

5.00My family loved this cute tour of Iceland’s cats! Highly recommend Stephan I as your guide. He took us to many locations throughout town to visit the famous cats and to the Cat Cafe for drinks and dessert. Just a fun short tour if you love cats or even just want to learn a little more about Reykjavik.
All abouts the cats

Fantastic Feline Tour not just for cat lovers

5.00What an amazing tour! Bardi was so friendly and knowledgeable about Icelandic cats and so much more! We really enjoyed learning about the city of Reykjavik and the history of Iceland as well as the Folklore of Iceland, the Yule cat and the goddess Freya. Bardi was a fantastic tour guide and story teller, we really felt connected with the city and meeting all the local famous felines was an added bonus! The cat cafe was warm and inviting and the drinks and Icelandic pastries were delicious. It was so lovely to see so many local businesses having cats they help look after. The local tips and recommendations for where to eat were also really helpful! As a family we really really enjoyed this tour and would say it was good fun and not just for cat lovers. Thanks so much Bardi for giving us such a special day x
Shop Cat Hunting in Reykjavik

5.00Booked this tour for something a little different on a family vacation. Turned out to be one of the highlights of our adventures in Iceland. Not only did we learn the history of Iceland, but we also went hunting for and found the shop cats of Reykjavik. Our guide, Bardi was entertaining and clearly a cat enthusiast. Tour includes a visit to the Cat Cafe for cookies and coffee/hot chocolate and our last stop was Bardi's home where he introduced us to his own children. All in all definitely recommend this walking tour. We plan on returning to Iceland again and will be booking some different tours with this company. Small groups, private groups, felt like the tour was made just for us. Thanks again Bardi, we had a blast and we went to the little restaurant you recommended for lunch.
If you are a cat person, this is a great way to meet the famous cats of Reykjavik.

5.00The cat Baktus is a little bad ass. We had to go to a hotel and a couple shops asking for him to finally connect. He's like the cat mayor of Reykjavik and just wanders around (in the snow storm!) checking on his city.
Greatest “catwalk“ in the world :)

5.00Fantastic tour experience! Bardi was our guide, he made this experience so special and personal for us. Meeting his cat friends in different spots of Reykjavik was great, and we enjoyed listening to facts, fun facts and anecdotes on Iceland and its cats 😸 Highlight was when Bardi invited us to his home to meet his 3 fluffy cat friends. Thanks a lot! :)
Memorable for all types of Cat People

5.00Family of three (1 avid cat-lover, 1 cats-are-nice, and 1 cat-hater) - all three enjoyed the experience! It was part cat scavenger hunt, but that only added to the fun (I do believe the cat-hater liked being able to spot cats before any of the others). The stories were great and I could tell our guide Barði enjoyed what he did! This is the experience I share with others when people ask what I did in Iceland! (Pictures of cat-hater and cat-lover ... see, memorable for all!)
Fun and informative

5.00Our tour guide Bardi was the best. We had a lovely stroll through downtown Reykjavik where we were introduced to the Shop cats. The Cat Cafe was the high point of the tour. For once, I wasn't the only one stopping to get photos of the cats.
