Iceland is known for its beautiful landscapes but also for its variety of adventure tours, so it can be hard to choose where to begin exploring! I often get asked for tips on what to do and where to go so here are my top 12 things to do in Iceland.
See this for: things to do in Reykjavik.

12. Go on a whale watching tour



Whale watching tours depart from Reykjavík, Akureyri and Húsavík in North Iceland and normally last for only a few hours. Whales are beautiful and to be out in the very cold North Atlantic ocean is a strange experience.

10. Have a night out in Reykjavík



After a hard day of sightseeing, what is better afterwards than to enjoy a delicious meal in one of Reykjavík’s quality restaurants. And if you still have energy afterwards, you can always check out the nightlife! It can get pretty intense.

8. Relax in the Blue lagoon spa



A visit to The Blue Lagoon is almost mandatory. It’s the best way to relax after a holiday filled with activities. Soak in the milky blue waters, order a drink from the bar or even treat yourself to a massage! The Blue Lagoon is a short way from the airport, so if you have an afternoon or evening flight it’s the ideal last stop. Check out these tours to the Blue lagoon.
