Vikings Sagas and Sights: Self Guided Walk in Reykjavik

A sorcerer once swam around Iceland disguised as a whale, only to be driven back by a dragon, a giant, and a colossal bird guarding the coastline. You'll find those guardians carved into the Parliament building — and that's just one of the stories waiting for you on this self-guided walking tour of Reykjavik. Starting at the volcanic-inspired Hallgrimskirkja, this audio tour leads you through 14 stops across Iceland's capital including the Rainbow Street and a sculpture designed as an ode to the sun. Along the way, you will hear how the Vikings established the world's oldest parliament and why Iceland has no McDonald's. Delivered through the Tourific app, the tour works entirely offline once downloaded. Pause to explore, stop for coffee, or climb the Hallgrimskirkja tower for panoramic views. Available in 9 languages. Start whenever you like, go at your own pace, and take as long as you want.
