Reykjavík All In One Food Tour - Eat, Drink & Explore with Locals — Nordic Nonsense

Would this be cheaper direct? No — we sell at Nordic Nonsense's own price and take our commission from them, not from you. What you get here is one checkout across operators, one confirmation, and one place to change or cancel it. If you ever find it cheaper on their own site, tell us and we will match it or explain why we cannot.

Why this one and not the cheaper one?

The nearest cheaper Mývatn Öl brewery and beer tasting tour from Mývatn Öl is €42 — €133 less. Here is every difference we can actually measure.

Nordic Nonsense · €175Mývatn Öl · €42
How long it runs4 hours1.5 hours

The €133 buys you 2.5 more hours out. 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.

Who this is not for

  • Not for families with children under 18 — the operator will not take them, even with a parent.

Read off the operator's own conditions. If none of it applies to you, this is a good one.

    We purchased our sweaters here on our recent trip to Iceland, and the cashier was so friendly and helpful. We love our sweaters and were perfect for the photos we had done. High quality, kept us warm and dry! Great quality from an Icelandic company for a very reasonable price.

    Purchased a beautiful blanket at this store. Very helpful and friendly staff. Lots of products to select from.

    My mother-in-law and I were trying on hats and considering a purchase when a woman approached her and said, “Don’t touch those, they’re expensive and you’re not going to purchase.” The comment was unprovoked, disrespectful, and humiliating. Furthermore, a simple, “sorry you cannot try this on”, would’ve been fine, but this lady decided to act on prejudice. We were treated as though we didn’t belong or couldn’t afford the merchandise. This behavior was unacceptable and made us feel unwelcome. Because of this experience, we left without buying anything and will not be returning. I recommend you consider not shopping her as well to avoid experiencing this.

    I am a repeat customer who loves everything about the Nordic Store. Each time I have contacted them for help, questions, or purchases, they have always been outstanding in their knowledge and kindness. I will continue to be a repeat customer as long as they exist.

Food & drink — questions people ask

Is a Reykjavík food walk worth doing?

Yes, on your first or second evening. Three hours through the centre with five or six tastings, lamb soup, fish, skyr, rye bread, the famous hot dog, and a guide who explains what Icelanders actually eat versus the tourist menu. It orients you in the city and shortlists restaurants for the rest of your stay. The combos with whale watching (/experience/834461/) or a northern-lights cruise (/experience/834525/) make a full day.

What food is Iceland known for?

Lamb, raised free on the hills and eaten as soup, roast or smoked as hangikjöt. Fresh fish, cod and arctic char especially, and langoustine in Höfn. Skyr, the thick cultured dairy. Dense rye bread, sometimes baked in geothermal ground. And the hot dog with everything, which is the honest national dish. The fermented shark and sheep's head are for dares, not dinner. Most Icelanders eat them once a year, if that.

Is food expensive in Iceland?

Yes. A main course in a mid-range Reykjavík restaurant costs roughly what a good dinner costs in London or Copenhagen, and alcohol is heavily taxed. Ways to soften it: lunch specials and soup-and-bread deals are good value, supermarket chains like Bónus and Krónan are fine for breakfast and picnics, and tap water is excellent and free everywhere. Tipping is not expected; service is included. A food walk is one of the better-value meals because it covers several places.

Can I get vegetarian or vegan food in Iceland?

In Reykjavík and Akureyri, easily; most restaurants have at least one option and several are fully plant-based. Outside towns, choice thins out to soup and salad, so on long day tours bring your own lunch if the stop is a petrol station grill. Food walks can usually adapt tastings if you tell the operator when booking; use the special requests field or email us. Allergies should always be flagged in advance.
