Description

Hafnarfjordur is a lovely town built on lava fields. Most people pass it without thinking twice.

One of the main attractions is the Viking restaurant and hotel. However, this trip is designed for lovers of more modern wooden houses, and the relationship between the past and the present.

We’ll explore public spaces, cute gardens and the charming harbour. We can also visit the city museum if you wish (only open on weekends in winter).

Are you someone who can ask questions in a low voice and take pictures in silence to respect the locals? Do you realise how tall you actually are? Do you see beauty in simplicity? Then this is the tour for you.

While the Hafnarborg art museum isn’t free to visit, it’s a great place to end the tour.

The tour can start from Hamraborg, Kópavogur, Hlemmur, Reykjavík or Fjordur.
