Reykjavik is a great city to visit, in my obviously completely impartial opinion. I happen to love my city and many of the fun things you can do in it. However, there are great things to do outside the city, of course. And while I think you could certainly have a great time staying in the City there are great sights to see all over the country. But many of those are quite far away, so unless you have planned a trip around the island you might not get a chance to visit them. It’s not a problem, however, since there are plenty of fantastic sights to see within a stone’s throw of Reykjavik. Whether you want to see the Golden Circle, the Blue Lagoon or some of the lesser known sites you don’t know about yet, read on to find out what to see in Iceland.

So you’ve arrived in Reykjavik. It’s a small city by most standards, but there’s lots to do. Of course you need to know where to look. The internet is not always the best at providing information about what to do in Iceland, and guidebooks on print (how quaint!) get outdated very fast. So I decided to put together a list of the best entertainment for visitors in Reykjavik, that I will make sure to keep updated as time goes on. Now, are you ready to find great things to do in Iceland?
