The CityWalk Free Walking Tour of Reykjavik is an exciting and entertaining way to explore the city. Taking participants on foot around the center of downtown Reykjavík, the tour visits attractions such as Harpa Concert Hall, Parliament Building, City Hall and more. Along the way visitors can learn about Icelandic history, economic aspects, political affairs, and explore the funny facts and stories of elves, Vikings and food. With plenty of non-touristy sites, fun activities for children, and a wheelchair accessible route that covers 2 kilometers in two hours, CityWalk is sure to be the highlight of any trip to Iceland. Participants pay 'whatever they think it was worth' at the end of the tour, so there's no reason not to give it a try!
Meeting point: the main square Austurvöllur, in front of the House of Parliament (Alþingi). They are easy to find, next to a statue of the national hero, Jón Sigurðsson. Make sure you don’t confuse the CityWalk with other tour groups. Always look for the CityWalk logo.
This tour has become very popular so CityWalk now offers paid, small-group tours and private tours which you can book well in advance.
