In our comparison: #9 of 25 in Food, Beer & Walking Tours, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

Enjoy a private 60-minute guided tour of Reykjavik's city center aboard electric tuk-tuks. Highlights include Reykjavik Harbor, a stop at Þúfa for a serene art installation experience, and the old west side with its historic houses. You can choose to visit either Hallgrímskirkja for panoramic views or Perlan as an alternative option, perfect if you have already seen Hallgrímskirkja.
