Reykjavik is the world's northernmost capital city, and as such is just outside of the Arctic Circle. There is much more to this city than might be expected, with its beautiful, colourful buildings, stunning natural scenery, and interesting and quirky art scene. With these features being just on the surface of what Reykjavik has to offer, it's no wonder it's an emerging tourist destination. Visitors will find a beguiling, small-village community feel while still experiencing the effects of being a huge city. Find cosy cafés, world-class restaurants, fine museums and galleries, and state-of-the-art geothermal pools - you won't struggle to find things to do here, that's for sure. Add this to a backdrop of snow-capped mountains, that glitter with snow like frozen diamonds, and you've got a truly unique destination. Top excursions in Reykjavik include the famous Blue Lagoon, whale watching, and tours of the Golden Circle. By the time you have to go home, you won't be ready to leave - no matter how cold you are.
