The perlan is so well done. Written exhibits are interesting and clear. My favorite experience was the volcano exhibit, especially the interactive decent into the volcano. The planetarium showing the long exposure photos was lovely. The observation deck and rotating restaurant literally top it off. We took our adult son to it when he arrived in Reykjavík, we enjoyed it so much.

The new exhibit was the best! Did it twice and the ice cave replica. The Aurora display was kind of a snooze. Would recommend this place to others.

Explore Iceland's only planetarium and indoor ice cave at Perlan —Wonders of Iceland with access to high-tech exhibits and digital guides.

Step inside glaciers, watch the Northern Lights dance across the dome, and see Iceland’s breathtaking nature brought to life, all in one unforgettable visit.

See life-like underwater species at the interactive underwater cinema and take in surreal 360-degree views of the city from the observation deck.

Fun Fact: The Northern Lights are better viewed through a long-exposure camera than the naked eye as the human eye cannot perceive all the hues of the lights.

No particular issue, but the price for kids is quite high in my opinion. As an adult, I'd absolutely do it again, very nice and informative. But if you go with 3 kids, it becomes quite expensive. One could not simply go to the ice cave as that was part of a tour

The exhibits were good so we were able to see what an ice cave was like, the northern lights and puffins.

Interactive Exhibitions and an Ice Cave

At the Perlan Museum, see diverse and simulated exhibitions on explosive volcanoes, earthquakes, and geothermal energy. Walk through the ice cave with a 100-meter-long tunnel, and stop at the glacier exhibits. Study the history of the glaciers of Iceland, displayed with advanced technology, and figure out their role in climate change in the northern landscapes.

The Planetarium, Underwater Cinema, & the Observation Deck

Sit back on comfortable chairs and view the enchanting Áróra Northern Lights Film at the planetarium show. Learn from the educational videos on volcanic eruptions and other natural wonders. Head to the underwater cinema to see illusions of whales and other sea creatures that seem all too real. Finally, climb to the observation deck to enjoy 360-degree views of Reykjavik, with the ocean, mountains, and more.
