First day fun - Our group of 10 did our tour with Alexa as our first activity upon arrival. What a great way to kick things off for a great trip She was informative and gave us a great "taste" of the city. Highly recommend to help get acquainted with the area and food offerings.

Amazing!! - Me and my partner absolutely loved this!! Our tour guide was Alfie, and she was the nicest person ever, made everyone feel at ease, helped the group connect together and get to know people, and gave us amazing facts about the food and local spots in reykjavik. The food was absolutely amazing and there genuinely wasn't anything I wouldn't happily eat all over again. So glad we did this!!

Highly recommend - A great tour to get to explore Reykjavik and the food in the city. We did this on our first day and felt it was a great way to get a feel for the city including the significant history and sites of the town Food wise we got to sample a wide variety of foods and were glad we hadn’t eaten before hand! As a pescatarian there were also options for me at each stop which was great Our guide Karitas was awesome - she was engaging and charismatic Overall highly recommend!

BEST EVER WITH ALFIE - Best ever and most enjoyable walking food tour of Reykjavík with Alfie. Her bubbly personality made all the difference. Great food stops with lots of interesting facts about the city, history, and venues. Could not have enjoyed it more.

Food Walk - A must-do when visiting Reykjavík! - The Food Walk was a fantastic experience! It’s an excellent way to get a taste of a variety of Icelandic foods, including Icelandic Pancakes (Pönnukökur), the famous hot dog of course, lamb chops, and langoustine tacos (or oyster mushroom tacos if you’re allergic to shellfish, equally delicious). The distances between stops was perfect - gives you a chance to walk off the bites of food. And the amounts of food were just right also, you don’t get overstuffed. Noki is a phenomenal guide, very knowledgeable and very entertaining; if we come back for another visit to Reykjavík we will be requesting him as our guide!

Fun way to explore the town! - We had such a wonderful time walking through the little streets. The places we stopped at all had a fun history that was shared by our super guide (I can’t pronounce her name). We even tried the shark! I would certainly recommend this tour and this guide for every visit to Reykjavík.
