This Christmas, join Your Friend in Reykjavik for a walking tour through the Christmas lit and festive streets of Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland. Together we will explore the Icelandic Christmas traditions and discover the 13 Santas of Iceland, their mother, the Troll Grýla that eats naughty children, and finally, the ferocious Christmas Cat. This family-friendly tour brings Icelandic Christmas traditions brought to life with exciting stories and Icelandic folklore. We will also come to know the delicious food and drinks that Iceland considers Christmassy and maybe sample some on our walk. Our meeting point is in Fógetagarðurinn for this Christmas Walking Tour through downtown Reykjavik.

We had just arrived in Reykjavik and decided to do a couple tours of the city to acclimate ourselves. We did the Christmas Tour with them, as well as the Walking Tour. Both tours were fun and educational. Highly Recommend. My only suggestion to the tour operator would be to be able to contact them via text prior to the tour in case we can't find the guide. We couldn't find him for the Walking Tour (he wasn't exactly where they said to meet) so had to go searching for him.

We had just arrived the day before and thought it would be good to do this tour. Firstly the place to meet was complicated. And the guide was not at the place when we arrived, secondly we did not visit any Christmas markets, thirdly she took us to a perfume shop which was not relevant. Overall we felt she had not much to share for a walking tour related to Christmas and it was a waste of time. She didn’t structure it well. And if Christmas markets are closed then hold it on days when they’re open.
