Summary: GetYourGuide review summary and sub-ratings, Oct 2026.
Minty was our guide and he was excellent. Knowledgeable and told great stories about Icelandic history.5
The food is very good and well prepared (plenty of it).5
Thor was very knowledgeable and entertaining. We saw a lot of the central city.5
Every walk starts within about 1.5 km of the others and moves between eateries in the old center. You walk, you sit, you taste, you walk on.
Lamb-based sausage, crispy and raw onion, sweet mustard, remoulade. Sold at Bæjarins Beztu since 1937.
Lamb soup, and seafood soup on one walk — the warm stop on a cold day.
CityWalk starts at Old Harbor House and ends with dessert by Hallgrímskirkja.
Greenland shark, fermented for weeks and dried for months. A dare, never forced.
