Reykjavik Airport is located about a 45-minute drive from the city centre. The airport shuttle is one of the cheapest options for getting to the city and leaves from the front of the terminal on a regular basis. You can also hail a taxi at the airport, which is a very fast way to get to the centre, however it also costs quite a lot. Public transport can be caught from the airport, but it takes a lot longer than the taxi or airport shuttle. The bus stop is located some 650 ft from the airport terminal, but once there, you can catch the number 55 to the city centre.

Iceland has so much to see and do and is extremely popular with those seeking an outdoor adventure. Start your trip with a visit to Perlan, an interactive Nature Exploratorium which is a wonderful day out, then head out to see the nature of the island for yourself, starting at Gunnuhver Hot Springs, which are part of Iceland’s natural topography. If you want to see more extraordinary sights, head over to Black Sand Beach, which is quite different from other beaches you might be used to, as volcanic minerals have turned the grains of sand black. The fascination of volcanoes doesn’t need to end there, with Kerid Crater offering you a great chance to get up close to a volcanic crater lake. Great for a photo opportunity, this is a must-see. Warm up inside at the National Museum of Iceland, where you can learn all about the history of this fascinating island.
