Árnastofnun

1 experience · from €18

Árnastofnun runs sightseeing day tours in Reykjavík, starting from Reykjavík. We book them directly, so what you see here is their own availability and their own cancellation policy — at the same price you'd pay them.

“At our exhibition, World in Words, visitors have the opportunity to view the Icelandic manuscripts – the nation’s most precious cultural heritage. They contain many ancient and renowned sagas and poems, but also various other texts that reflect how previous generations thought about their lives and their society. The exhibition’s main focus is on presenting the rich and complex world of the manuscripts, where life and death, passion and religion, and honour and power all come into play.”

Árnastofnun, in their own words — from their Bókun supplier profile.

All of the above is computed from Árnastofnun's own 1 product records, not from a questionnaire. Fleet size and typical group sizes are the figures a comparison table usually shows; Bókun does not carry them, so we would be guessing, and we would rather leave a gap than fill it in.
