We got excellent historical information and current information about the city. The guide was fantastic! So interesting and fun. He also had many recommendations what else to see and also where to eat. We are so happy we did this tour on our first day in the city. It was so helpful for the rest of our trip.

5.00Good communication from Luca ensured we knew exactly where to meet & identify him. He was friendly, engaging,extremely knowledgeable and very interesting. During the walk around the town Luca pointed out places of historical interest, buildings of national & local importance as well as relating ancient folklore. We enjoyed eating in several of his restaurant recommendations and were not disappointed. He was able to answer all the questions we had and even provided a wee sample of the traditional snack & spirit of Iceland. An excellent introduction to Reykjavik - highly recommend this as an essential start to your visit.
A great experience of walking tour
