Our Reykjavik food walk is also good to get oriented in the old Reykjavik city center. All our guides are graduates from the Icelandic Tourist guide school but more importantly, they know how to entertain as well as to educate. The only bad thing on this tour is the fermented shark, but hey, it's an adventure, and what does not kill you makes you stronger and cooler back home ;). One of the best things about doing a food tour is getting a sense of the history of the country while eating something delicious & exciting. You will also get tips on Food, Fun & Drink for the rest of our stay in Reykjavik so perfect as one of the first stops while in Reykjavik. We do of course accommodate dietary restrictions & allergies but traditional Icelandic food is meat, fish, and dairy. ## Before you book - Hotel pickup: no car needed - Min. 2 to book: not for solo travellers - 18 start times: between 11:00 and 19:30 - Food included: see what is included - Strollers OK: infants accepted **Pickup:** Hotel pickup included ## Key facts - Price: from €206 per person - Duration: 3h - Rating: 4.81/5 from 183 reviews (collected from Guidekin & Viator & Tripadvisor) - Free cancellation (see policy below) - Operator: Your Friend In Reykjavik - Minimum booking: 2 travellers at this price - Group: Private tour, your party only - Guide languages: Norwegian, German, Russian, Swedish, English, Italian, Polish, French, Danish, Dutch, Spanish - Start times: 18 start times between 11:00 and 19:30 - Booking: Instant confirmation, mobile ticket - Price checked on Viator: 2026-10-22 ## Reviews 4.81 from 183 ratings on Guidekin, Viator & Tripadvisor. 96% of ratings with a star breakdown are 4 or 5 stars: 175 of 183. - 5 stars: 168 (92%) - 4 stars: 7 (4%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 4 (2%) - 1 star: 4 (2%) ## What's included - We will have an Icelandic drink of choice at the end of our tour - Be hungry as you will have plenty to eat ## Itinerary 1. **We meet up in the old Reykjavik city center by the two stone pillars which si...** (5m) - We meet up in the old Reykjavik city center by the two stone pillars which signify how the original settler of Iceland and Reykjavik decided to settle 2. **Reykjavik** (25m) - We start off down by the Reykjavik harbor with a great appetizer: An Icelandic shellfish soup 3. **No Reykjavik Food Tour is complete without a stop at the one and only Iceland...** (20m) - No Reykjavik Food Tour is complete without a stop at the one and only Icelandic Hot dog stand where you sample a delicious Lamb hot dog.
