Reykjavik Nightlife

Laugavegur

Not just Reykjavik's shopping district, this lengthy street is primed and ready for stags with bars, nightclubs, and pubs galore. Head here for unforgettable nightlife.

Things to See in Reykjavik

The Northern Lights

Witnessing the Northern Lights is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and Reykjavik could be your only chance. Go hunting for them - it's worth it!

Laugardalsvöllur

Football fanatics must visit Iceland's national football stadium. Although there are just 13,000 seats, this place is awesome.

Hallgrimskirkja

This church is the most significant building in the capital. Entry is free, but climbing the tower will cost 900 ISK (roughly £5.50pp).

The Alþingi

Check out the oldest public garden in Iceland, soak up the sights, and shake off those hangovers from the night before.

The Sun Voyager

The Sun Voyager is one of Iceland's most famous works of art. This huge Viking-inspired sculpture sits on the seafront and is a great walk for any tender stag heads after a big night out. Well worth the trip.

How to Get to Reykjavik...

Flights

Only the UK's major airports - such as Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester, and Glasgow - fly to Reykjavik, so plan around this.

Getting from Keflavik International Airport to Reykjavik

Keflavik International Airport is 51.3km from Reykjavik city centre.

A taxi will cost around £120-£140 from the airport to the city, but that's not bad if you split the fare between the stags.

Buses are a cheaper alternative, with round trips costing about £60 per person.

The easiest way is to book a private transfer. Add this to your enquiry and the transfer will take you to your hotel.
