Reykjavik, Iceland’s small but mighty capital, might not be the first door you’d consider knocking on when you are planning a city break. However, this quirky city is the perfect entrance to an epic adventure.
Sure, you might battle gale-force winds and horizontal rain at times, but that’s all part of the Iceland’s charm; the weather is a gamble, but if you don’t like it, wait 5 minutes.
Start by exploring Reykjavik’s, ahem, provocative museums including one dedicated to male members across the entire animal kingdom. Sip craft beer and nosh on local seafood. You can geek out over geysers at the Golden Circle, soak in the otherworldly Blue Lagoon, or chase puffins near Vik. Reykjavik might be a city break, but Iceland’s wild soul is never far away.
