Day 1Iceland - Reykjavik

Reykjavik, whose name translates to "the smoking bay," is Iceland's dynamic capital and the country's largest city. Situated on the southwest coast of the island, facing the vast North Atlantic, Reykjavik is home to approximately 120,000 residents, constituting over a third of Iceland's population. As the economic and cultural heart of the nation, Reykjavik offers a diverse array of eateries, shops, and cultural institutions, including museums, theaters, and an opera house. Often regarded as one of the world's greenest, cleanest, and safest cities, Reykjavik is a remarkable blend of urban vibrancy and natural splendor. Reykjavik, with its dynamic cultural scene, breathtaking natural surroundings, and intriguing historical sites, invites travelers to immerse themselves in the unique spirit of Iceland. Whether you're marveling at stunning waterfalls, gazing upon historic landmarks, or embracing the city's modern charm, Reykjavik promises an unforgettable Icelandic adventure.

Worth seeing
Hallgrimskirkja: Dominating the city skyline is Hallgrimskirkja, a colossal church featuring a 74-meter high church tower. A visit to the tower provides panoramic views of the city and the surrounding landscapes. In front of the church stands a statue of Leif Ericsson, known as Leif the Lucky, who, according to Icelandic sagas, was the first European to reach America, which he named "Vinland."

Golden Circle Route: Embark on a guided bus tour along the Golden Circle Route to witness several of Iceland's awe-inspiring natural wonders, including Gullfoss. This magnificent waterfall, fueled by glacier meltwater, showcases the raw power of Iceland's natural forces.

Iceland's National Museum: Explore the country's rich history and culture at Iceland's National Museum. Delve deeper into the fascinating narratives that have shaped Iceland over the centuries.

Climate
Reykjavik experiences a coastal climate and resides on the northern edge of the temperate climate belt. During the summer months, temperatures can reach up to 15 degrees Celsius, while the winter months bring average temperatures hovering around the freezing point. Despite its high northern latitude, Reykjavik rarely endures extreme cold thanks to the warming influence of the Gulf Stream and the region's coastal location.
