Great start to our Reykavik stay. - We booked this morning tour to fill in some time before our hotel room was ready.( we had an early morning arrival to the city). Our guide was Thomas and he was a great guide! We feel we got a good overview of the important monuments and architecture with some very interesting stories of Icelandic culture thrown in! Well worth doing this walking tour early in your visit!

Lovely Walking Tour with Eric - My husband and I had a really great time in the walking tour today. Eric is such a nice, positive and welcoming Icelander. It was super interesting to know some cool facts about Iceland (things that just a local guide would be able to share with us)! Thanks for that! Obrigado, Julia and Thomas (Brazilians living in Ireland).

Interesting & Informative Iceland - Eric or is it Erik? The tour was very interesting and engaging. It was a lot of information and full of interesting commentary. I have been fortunate to travel a lot and been on many tours. This was by far one of the best City tours. We had a very large group, but Erik managed to keep it moving and address all questions with warmth and interest. Flat casual walk. Easy pace. Highly Recommend

Erik was great! - Really enjoyed our walking tour of lovely Reykjavik in the sunshine on wednesday. Our guide, Erik, was very enthusiastic, informative, knowledgable and funny! We went at a nice easy pace, and learnt loads about the history of Reykjavik, the Icelandic people, their politics and culture. We've done loads of these free walking tours all over the world, and we ranked this one particularly highly for the fact that the guide was a genuine local, who could answer everyone's questions with ease, and knew all the best stuff to show us. Takk Fyrir Erik!

Great foundation for further exploration! - I went on this tour upon arrival to Reykjavik, and this was the absolute BEST way to get acclimated with the city and learn about its history. Now for the rest of the trip, I feel confident exploring on my own and orient myself anywhere I am, with the landmarks I learned about on this tour! Our guide Erik was well versed in fun facts, historical stories and get recommendations for us if we had additional questions.

worthwhile - Good historical overview of Iceland. Walked to areas of Reykjavik I might not have ventured to. The group ended up being just my wife and I.
