Tired of being in big groups to visit Iceland? This self-guided audio tour is made for you! Explore Reykjavik the proper way: taking your time, relaxed, and on your own schedule.
The tour starts from the most notorious sight of Reykjavik: Hallgrimskirkja, the main church, and ends on the opposite side of the city center by the Prime minister's house. Let the voice guide you and discover how Reykjavik went from a Viking village to a booming modern Capitale while seeing local gems and the city’s best-known sites. The tour plays audio automatically at exactly the right time and place using your smart phone’s GPS and the VoiceMap mobile app. Once downloaded, the tour works entirely offline.
Start the tour in the app, put your phone in your pocket, and let your guide direct you through the streets. The total walking distance is approximately 4km and takes about 1.5-2 hours without stopping, but you can pause anytime! At the end, we will also recommend some local hangouts for you to try our food and drinks.

This guide was great! Easy to follow, clear instructions and a good level of information and interest. We saw a lot of the city, learned about what we were looking at and really enjoyed it. It took us about 3 hours, walking, stopping to look and listen, stopping for a coffee in a recommended café and enjoying going round at our own pace.

Very informative, and you can go at your own pace. Definitely good if you only have a day in the city and want to learn more about the history/ see some great sites.

What a brilliant way to explore a new place. I found the tour informative and the app design/interactions brilliant. Knowing where I was and if I ventured off path was a great advantage over other audio only tours.

This was an excellent activity for unfavorable weather in downtown Reykjavík. I even brought my dog along! Very easy to use and navigate. Recommend to anyone looking for an affordable "local" experience- no matter what the weather.

Very informative and easy way to walk over town. Rather cheap compare to the cost of a regular walking tour in Reykjavik. Totally worth it
