Reykjavik Attractions

A wonderful place to visit. The best money spent in Iceland. The museum tells the story of Iceland’s wonders—its volcanoes, geology, ice ages, and the flora and fauna of this incredible island—in an interesting, modern, and interactive way that’s easy to follow. Every visitor is treated to a spectacular show consisting of three amazing short journeys: a film about the volcano that erupted in 2010 near the Blue Lagoon, followed by a journey into the Earth’s interior (jaw-dropping!) in a small room with a spherical display (something like the Sphere in Vegas, only in a mini version), and finally, a walk through 400 tons of ice simulating the entrance to the interior of a glacier. It was simply AWESOME!

We loved everything there, just a little bit disappointed about the towels. We didn't know they are not included. The website should say. Everywhere else we have been, they are included.

We ended our last day in Vik with the Lava Show Immersive Experience and am so glad we didn't miss this! Enjoyable, informative and very toasty! Fascinating to watch Martin manipulate the lava. He's a natural teacher and storyteller. And great Katla story in the short video as well. Five stars!
