About this tour

A perfect first day in Iceland, get a great orientation of Reykjavik & Iceland on our Walk With a Viking, City Walking tour, and then you head out to catch your dinner out to sea.  The freshest fish you will ever have, as your first dinner while in Iceland.

We meet up at Ingólfur Square in the center of Reykjavik by the two stone pillars (3 meters high) at 1 pm (13:00) (By Aðalstræti).
Our Reykjavik walking tour is your introduction to Iceland. It will help you get your bearings and make the most of your stay in Iceland.

W recommend it as your first stop in Reykjavik (well, maybe check into your accommodation and drop your bags off first).  Our family-friendly tour brings the history of Iceland to life with exciting stories and Icelandic mythology.  We’ll visit all of the famous landmarks in the city center, such as Harpa Concert Hall, Reykjavik Harbour, Hallgrímskirkja Church (we’ll teach you how to pronounce that), Reykjavik Pond and the Parliament building.  We'll be showing you our favorite places to eat, drink and visit (we also have an intimate knowledge of happy hour deals we're happy to share.
But, we’ll also share hidden, local spots with you like a visit to an Elf home; things you’d miss if you didn’t know what to look for.
The city tour takes approximately 2 hours and when you have finished your orientation it's soon time for Sea Angling from Reykjavik Harbor.

Then you have time to relax a bit before heading down to the harbor and starting the next adventure.  Your Sea Angling Tour leaves at 5 pm (17:00) from the Old Harbour in Reykjavík.
Protective clothing is provided for your comfort & safety.

We set off from Reykjavik’s Old Harbour and head out to fishing areas in Faxaflói Bay, where your experienced crew will usually spot fish in a flash!

If you have never been sea fishing before, don’t worry – it is very easy! The crew will happily show you the ropes, advising you on bait and passing on their knowledge of the seas.

On these sea angling trips, you have a good chance of catching cod, haddock, rockfish, and pollock. Sea angling tours are perfectly suited both to experienced fishermen and to those who simply wish to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings with a fishing rod in hand.

They grill your catch on board & serve it with potatoes and sauce!
