This capital city is truly unique. Eerily quiet compared to other major cities in Europe yet bursting with life and soul as soon as you step foot inside a secret hangout known only to the locals, Reykjavik is a strange and rewarding city destination for those who like to travel off the beaten path. Its coastal location makes it the ideal base for sea excursions such as hunting for the beautiful Northern Lights and the seafood is, as expected, pretty spectacular. And daily bus trips will take you to the country’s most incredible natural wonders, including the gushing Gullfoss Waterfalls, the famous Blue Lagoon Spa, the geothermal geysers of Geysir and Strokkur, the rugged Thingvellir National Park and the jaw-dropping sights of the Jokulsarlon icebergs. For a journey that is truly out of this world, make Reykjavik and Iceland your next holiday destination.
