Begin your tour of Reykjavík, the world's northernmost capital, at the Árbær Open-Air Museum, whose specific purpose is to preserve and showcase a selection of old Icelandic houses, furnishings and implements.
Next, relax on a panoramic drive past Reykjavík's largest outdoor swimming pool in Laugardalur, heated with water from natural hot springs under the city.
Stop briefly outside Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Center — a prominent landmark and the home to the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and the Icelandic Opera.
Continue driving to the Pearl — a glass dome built over the hot water tanks that store water for the greater Reykjavík area — for panoramic city vistas from the viewing deck.
Watch for the beautiful Hallgrímskirkja Church, whose steeple is a Reykjavík landmark.
Your tour will be complete with a drive into the charming city center, where you will see various landmarks, including the Town Hall, the cathedral, and other interesting buildings.
Notes:
Elevators take visitors to the viewing platform on the 4th floor. Dress warmly and in layers for the day's weather conditions. Wear sturdy, closed-toe, non-skid shoes. Terrain includes even and uneven surfaces, cobblestones, inclines, gravel, grass, and steps. At the Árbær Museum, the houses are small and have narrow entrances, low ceilings and low doorways. Dress warmly in layers with a windproof and waterproof outer layer; bring a warm hat, gloves and a scarf. Wear sturdy non-skid walking shoes. Parents traveling with children under the age of 3 must rent a child's car seat from the tour operator; please see the Shore Excursions team on board. You cannot use your child's car seat from home in Iceland.
