The first permanent settlement in Iceland, Reykjavik is now the bustling heart of the country. As its biggest and capital city, there is plenty to experience and encounter here – from Viking history to whale watching excursions from the coast.
For school groups, Reykjavik offers plenty of museums, galleries, shops, parks and historic centres to visit, as well as opportunities to marvel at the striking architecture and brightly coloured buildings.
Outside of the city, the area around Reykjavik is home to plenty of wildlife, incredible scenery and a land of adventure as valleys and volcanoes begin to emerge. Famous for the frequent whale sightings and the phenomenal northern lights, this part of Iceland provides much more than accommodation between flights and trekking.
