We just got back from our first trip to Iceland one day ago. I cannot speak more highly about wake up Reykjavík tours. We did two tours, the food tour and the golden circle with secret Lagoon. We enjoyed it very very much. Tours were very informative and very small groups. Both guides were well informed. I made a mistake while booking one of the tours. I didn’t realize it, not I double booked the tour. I called wake up Reykjavik, they fixed the problem, no issues whatsoever, took them a couple of minutes and sent me a confirmation email. Very very easy to work. They give very solid advice. One word of warning to pump gas in Iceland. You need a credit card with a four digit pin code. Never even saw any. Icelandic money until I passed a donation box at the airport on the way out. Credit cards are used everywhere.

@@Sweenece My experince was that sometimes you could use a credit card without a 4 digit pin at some gas stations(N1 gas stations were this way) and some gas stations required a 4 digit pin for all cards(the gas station right before the airport that advertises "We have the cheapest gas")

My #1 tip is if you visit during the busy summer AND rent a car, stay at one of the more 'boring' hotels that have their own parking. If you stay at a smaller hotel in Reykjavik city center, the walk to your street (or public) parking is probably longer than the walk from a larger commercial hotel to the city center.

As a result of this video, which I watched a few months ago, I recently did a food tour with Wake Up Reykjavik, with Silly as the guide. After the previous day of aimlessly walking around, it was a great relief to be taken to, and explained about, some of the most interesting place in town. The food, drinks, and conversation made the excursion a great experience.

Thank you for these great tips! Iceland is definitely on my list of must see countries, and it is handy to know that I can hire suitable cold weather gear, as I come from Australia, so our climate is very different to yours. ( Our summer temperatures average 30 to 40 degrees Celsius. Winter, where I live, is similar to your summer temps!) I would like to hear a little more about your favourite Reykjavik destinations as well as information on the ring road trip. The food tour that you promoted sounds excellent. Loved the video, such fun! 😊🇦🇺

We were in Iceland in May 2022 and absolutely loved it! I spent a lot of time watching videos like these to plan the best trip possible for my husband and I. We knew where the airport was so booked fly bus tickets as soon as we arrived and also for our return trip to the airport 9 days later. I learned from the videos about the best tours to pre-booked small group day tours for the Golden Circle including a volcano crater (I don't recall how to spell the name so will not butcher it by trying!), the South Coast Tour that included Glacier Lagoon and Diamond Beach, and also a Snaefelsnes Tour that included lunch on a horse ranch. They were all so amazing! Your country is so beautiful and the people are so friendly and helpful. Our hotel was on Rainbow street which was the perfect location. The videos also taught us about great places to eat, and what to eat, like lobster soup at SeaBaron, the Sandholt with their amazing bread, where to buy groceries, we personally loved Kronan, and we also learned about the Iceland Hand knitters Society and were to buy our lopapeysas (we are from Winnipeg Canada where it gets extremely cold). And importantly we learned what to pack for May weather and for the tours we were going to be going on, layers layers layers!!! Our trip was perfect!!! We are now planning a return trip!! Love love love Iceland!!

I had the pleasure of being stationed in Iceland for a year and a half (1993-1994). I spent most of my time in Keflavik, though. I was able to visit Reykjavik a few times. Saw the puffins. The "midnight sun". I remember we held the "all day fun run" during the winter... the event lasted an hour. The first thing they did when we landed in Keflavik was hand us a parka with a reflector in the shape of Iceland on the back. I still have the reflector. Kinda wish I could've kept the parka. I remember the wild, gale force winds in the winter that literally blew you along with it. I've heard the saying "if you don't like the weather, wait 15 minutes... it'll change" in several areas, but Iceland is the only place I've lived where that saying is actually true. Gullfoss Falls was incredible, as well as the geysers. Also saw the Bessastaðir presidential residence and church. I was kinda sad when I left the island for the last time, but I was determined to come back and visit one day. Now, I'm looking into coming back. It's been too long.

This is by far the best company to get your tours from. I did three tours with them (Sept 2023) and they were wonderful. I took their advice and booked the food tour the first day. I arrived at 6 am in Keflavik. I was able to check into my hotel and met up with the group at 11:30 am at Harpa. It was a wonderful experience to get oriented in Reykjavik and met some wonderful people at the same time. Dagur was our food guide and fabulous. Kali and Gustov were our guides to Snaefellsnes and the south coast.

Just got back from a 2 week stay. We did the ring road and it was the BEST!!! We stayed at a different place every night as well. I can't tell you how awesome it was! The only stressful part was driving in the mountains. I'm afraid of heights so I would drive really slow. What I do love about the country's driving culture is that people will go around you. And there are plenty of places to do so. Other than that, I had no problems with any of the driving. Except one time I parked in the wrong direction on a street. A taxi driver got out and came to us while we're sitting in our car and frustratingly though being helpful said, "You see, you're facing the wrong way. This is a one way street." We quickly apologized and moved. I was frustrating because I felt I was doing fine up to that point. LOL I'm used to driving on ice and snow so the conditions weren't new in that regard. Anyhoo, I took over 3k pictures. And though every night had clouds one night didn't. And it was the perfect condition for the northern lights! A bonus to the trip. We weren't depending on seeing them but so glad we did! I would recommend going there! And though I know it'll be hard, I hope to eventually live there. The weather and landscape is actually what I adore being around. :)

Super helpful Thank you I'm putting my thoughts in high gear for 1st week April 24 Off season less crowds. Less expensive on shelter and flight and car rental I was thinking of driving the ring road 1, but been told by travelers of iceland make your road trip the Golden circle and southern coast not northern half or east coast in early April cause of weather & road conditions I knew about duty free alcohol purchase at airport but didn't realize it came with certain units.

Have family there but don't really know them that well. Planning on going there in the next year ...hopefully. Really just want to check out the island and see Akranas. The ring tour sounds great but the amount of driving sounds brutal.

Hello Melissa! I would definitely just recommend a Taxi, it will not be a long drive so it won't be super expensive but way more efficient and you will get closer than public transport would be able to take you!

I plan to visit Iceland next week, with 1 toddler and 1 baby. Do you have any specific tips for traveling with kids in Iceland? Also, do you have any recommendations on which tours are more suitable for travelers with children?

Hey there! A great question :) Our food walk definitely accommodates kiddos, and kids under the age of 4 join in for free, just send us an email with the booking number so we can add them in! Then we have a video on our channel about Summer in Iceland and there Dan lists up some great child friendly activities including the zoo, some museums and other fun activities that I would definitely recommend checking out!

Would you recommend for us to rent a vehicle in December or will the weather be too harsh with snow storms? I’ve been in debate whether I should just take tours instead of driving.
@WakeUpReykjavik.
@WakeUpReykjavik. Жыл бұрын
Hey there Joy! You can definitely rent a car in December - but I would estimate it on whether or not you are comfortable driving around in icy, dark and probably windy conditions. I personally would probably do for the day tours option so you don't have to worry about driving if a storm hits, but then you might get lucky and come here during a pretty decent December. Just one of these things that you cannot predict in advance :)
