EnglishWhat You'll Do
Discover the flavors, stories, and spirit of Iceland’s capital on our Reykjavík Food Tour through the city’s vibrant downtown. Nestled between mountains and sea, this colorful Nordic city blends centuries-old traditions with bold culinary innovation. From the comforting warmth of local bakeries to the hearty flavors of Icelandic seafood, every bite tells a story of resilience, creativity, and connection to nature.
As we explore Reykjavík’s charming streets, you’ll experience the city through its food and its people. We’ll begin with a delicate Icelandic pastry enjoyed in view of the famous Hallgrímskirkja church before strolling along the lively Rainbow Road and bustling Laugavegur. Along the way, the aroma of fresh bread, grilled lamb, and sizzling seafood fills the air. You’ll taste beloved local favorites like Iceland’s famous hot dog and a traditional fish-and-potatoes dish served in one of the city’s oldest diners—true comfort food that embodies the flavors of the North Atlantic.
To finish, we’ll slow down with a cup of rich hot chocolate and a slice of Icelandic Marriage Cake, a sweet symbol of love and hospitality. And of course, no Secret Food Tour would be complete without our delicious Secret Dish, revealed only on the day of your adventure.
Our Reykjavík Food Tour is more than a meal—it’s a chance to taste the real Iceland, uncover hidden gems, and connect with the culture that makes this city so unforgettable.

We give enough food to all our customers. Trust us, you will not need to go to any restaurant after the Food tour!
Where do I add my discount voucher?
I would like to take your tour but it is already fully booked. Is there a way I can do the tour?
Our tours are often sold out very quickly. If the date you requested is not available, please do not hesitate to email us and we can see if there is anything we can do.
Is there a lot of walking?
To join our food tour, you must wear comfortable shoes. There will be around 45 minutes walking but it is not too difficult. If you walk slowly, then our guide will walk slowly as well.

What if it rains or I change my plans?
Unfortunately, Reykjavik’s weather can be unpredictable. We don’t offer refunds as stated in our terms and conditions. Our tours will still run even with only two guests. We reserve the right to cancel only if the weather becomes extreme and it’s unsafe to continue. For more information, please see our Terms and Conditions.
Can I pay the tour in cash?
You must book directly on our website. We do not accept cash payments. Our online payment is safe, secured and SSL protected.
Why do we need to pay for a booking fee?
The booking fee that you have to pay is up to our ticket provider and we can't change it. All our clients need to pay for it upon booking. The booking fee charged contributes to the cost of the ticketing system to provide an excellent service to our customers.
Foreign Transaction Fees
A few banks have charged their customer an extra fee while booking with us (this isn't the booking fee but another fee added by the bank). We think this is unfair, if this happens let us know by showing us in your bank statement and we will refund this fee as a gesture of good will.
