When just want simplicity but it’s freaking amazing! You have the choice between veggie or meat soup in a bread bowl. The special is soup in bread bowl with a Gull beer. The vibe is amazing m, especially on a rainy day. 100/10 recommend!
Svarta Kaffið
You’ve never had a hotdog like this! 🌭
Discover the Famous Icelandic Hotdog
Never thought we’d find the cutest ramen hole in the wall in Iceland! It was such a nice warm, cozy lunch on a cold windy day! The ramen was the best I’ve ever had, and ramen isn’t my fave meal! The egg is always my favorite part though!
Ramen Momo
My first time ever having fish and chips was in Iceland at Reykjavik Fish 🐟

A huge menu of White Russians. A dance floor. A disco ball. What else do you really need?
Lebowski Bar
I didn’t get to go here, but I heard the music from the street and it seemed like a super fun place! I do think there’s a dress code.
Pablo Discobar
Must Sees!
One of the most beautiful places in Iceland! Definitely my favorite place! It seemed like I was on another planet, very unreal! We took some of the most beautiful pictures here! It wasn’t a very long drive from Reykjavik, which is a plus! And there’s...
The Black Church of Budir, Iceland
An absolute must see!! We got off the plane and went immediately to the museum! It was actually very educational and just a fun, weird place to experience.
The Icelandic Phallological Museum
Diamond beach was unbelievable! We just stood there in awe of the beauty. It was definitely worth the four hour drive from Reykjavik!

Definitely do these!!
Do this!! You’ll have the best and most relaxing time! It is a little more touristy than the Sky lagoon or other small hot springs, but still worth it!
Blue Lagoon
The sky lagoon was peaceful! Definitely do the 7 step experience: the cold plunge, sauna, steam room, etc. You feel like a new person after this! If you can, get the package that offers a charcuterie board at the end of your time there. We got to try...
Sky Lagoon
This was my favorite “trail” ride ever! The black sand beach was indescribable! We learned a new gate that only the Icelandic horses do, a Tolt. It’s a somewhere between a trot and a canter. We also got to ride through a creek. The horses were so swe...
Vík Horse Adventure

We stayed here the majority of our trip. We absolutely loved it! The room was incredibly clean, the bed was huge and comfortable, and the service was excellent! The hotel bar served great drinks, and the ready to go snacks in the lobby were delicious...
Hilton Reykjavik Nordica - City Centre and Laugardalur
One word: luxury ✨ We only stayed here one night because we extended our trip an extra day, but the experience was next level! The staff was so nice and the room was fabulous!
Hotel Borg – 4-star hotel with a spa in Reykjavik
My favorite experience of the whole trip! It was beyond romantic! My husband and I went over our 3rd anniversary and we had the sweetest time dancing in the little kitchen while making dinner. There is plenty of privacy so we felt comfortable sleepin...
