Experience Reykjavik

Reykjavik has become more modernised in recent years and is a blend of Icelandic culture past and present. A city that is entwined with the ocean it lives against. Whilst driving past the new buildings, you may spot ghosts of the vikings that surely once called this place home. The crisp salty sea breeze will fill your senses and perhaps for a time, life stands still. Try a visit in winter, the daylight will be short but you will experience fewer tourists, which means less traffic.
