Why this one and not the cheaper one?

The nearest cheaper Golden Ride – Day tour in Golden Circle area from Íslandshestar is €0 — €51 less. Here is every difference we can actually measure.

The €51 buys you 2 more hours out and free cancellation up to 24 h before. Whether that is worth it is your call — but that is what the difference is.

Sold out on your date?

Seats come back — a cancellation, or the operator adding a vehicle. Tell us the date and we will check once a day and email you if one opens. One email, then we delete the address; nothing else is ever sent to it.

    It’s a must to visit perlan museum if you are in Reykjavik. Its a place for visitors to explore Icelandic nature . The into the volcano is as awesome/great experience, wandering on the ice cave is totally marvelous and watching the aurora show is fantastic. Highly recommended

    Honestly, one of the best museums I've been to. I was show at first but it really is worth the expense. It's informative without being overwhelming. It's interesting and interactive with things for kids and adults to enjoy. Be sure to visit the planetarium show, or really is beautiful, thank you guide Gracious for that. Marko was or guide for the initial tour of the museum and that was also excellent. Side note, currently the online tickets are a little less expensive than buying them at the door.

    If you're travelling with kids, Perlan is a wonderful way to bring fire and ice into your trip. The ice cave, volcano show and planetarium are well thought out and designed immersive experiences that our 2 & 6 year olds loved. Tickets aren't cheap, it's Iceland so that should come as no suprise, but I'd say they're great value. You'll easily spend 2+ hours here and the cafe and views from it are stunning. If it's a clear day, you can enjoy panoramic views that stretch for miles and miles and miles. The indoor geysir that stretches all the way up to the top floor was also a hit with the kids so this really does deliver a recreation of most of Iceland's "greatest hits" in a single, contained experience. The information throughout the museum is first class too, so there's heaps to learn. All in all, a really fantastic family museum. Staff are all really polite and helpful, but again, this is Iceland, so that's no surprise at all. 10% discount on tickets can be found on Booking dot com.

    Very chill natural history museum to visit with kids. They have some great shows, exhibits, the ice cave was definitely the highlight. The 360 revolving restaurant is a nice place to get a view of the entire city though.
