Reykjavik Natural Environment
Reykjavik, Iceland A city like no other, even though not much to offer-but its contradictions....a place that everyone should visit at least once. Small town, easily visited in one day, nightlife inavoidable-watch for excessive drinking broken glass everywhere...Iceland is best to visit over summer, due to weather, but Reykjavik itself any time. Expect bad service in kafes and restaurants. Transportation is also very bad, since everyone has a car, buses don´t go everywhere. Very gay friendly. Good tip? (0) Reykjavik, Iceland the weather in Iceland can change at any moment. in one day you can have all from sun to snow. So my advice is: bring clothes for all kinds of weather. it is better to be safe than sorry. Good tip? (0) Reykjavik, Iceland Hire a car in Reykjavik and drive along the west coast line up towards Akureyri. This could be your first stop. Akureyri is Icelands second town, and is friendly and with a gorgeous bay and harbour.
Next drive to Husavik and enjoy whale watching. Continue and drive east towards Egilsstadir but make sure to stop at the spa in Myvatn! You can continue towards Breidalsvik around the peninsua or you can cross straight from Disarstadhir if the weather condition is good. Next over night stop could be Hofn where they have a wonderful golf course, which is very difficult to play!
Indeed you should see Vattnajökull and Skaftafell, before driving towards Kirkjubaerklaustur. In Vik further south you can find some very nice hand craft, particularly in wool!
Now it's tme to drive towards the golden trainge with Laugarvatn, Thingvellir, Selfoss and of course Fludir. The latter has got a very nice Icelandair Hotel!
Before you go back, don't miss the Blue Lagoon! If you want to make things cheap, remember to buy food in local shops and supermarkets! Good tip? (0) Top Cities near ReykjavikBradt Travel Guides |
