12 Cool Things to Do in Reykjavik, Iceland - From My Dreamtrip Experience!

Hi dear friends and readers, I hope this compilation will give you some inspiration on some activities to plan for if you are intending to visit Reykjavik, Iceland!

Although I only visited Reykjavik, Iceland for a short period of 5 days before leaving for the USA, I managed to experience some very authentic, local experiences, and have highlighted them below. 

I'm really blessed to be able to go for this trip, all-paid-for thanks to my wonderful travel platform, on top of the other 40-plus vacations I went on in the last 3 years, and I can say that this was one of the most memorable vacations of my life so far!

In each of the 12 cool things I mention, if you click the name of the attraction or place, you will be re-directed to the official websites or a helpful website of that particular item. 

Also, all the photos you see below were snapped by myself or Amilee using my Canon DSLR 550D digital camera.

I sincerely hope that you get value from reading this post.
