The world's most northerly capital, Reykjavik is home to several places of historic and cultural interest, among them Árbæjarsafn Folk Museum, the Ásmundur Sveinsson Museum of Sculpture and the Sigurjón Ólafsson Museum, as well, of course, as the National Museum of Iceland.
Perlan is situated on the hill Öskjuhlíð where there had been hot water storage tanks for decades.​

In one of the tank is a viking museum of the first  settlers in Iceland.

In the city centre itself, the Port of Reykjavík and harbour area, Icelands parliament, the Althing, the ultra-modern City Hall, and Harpa the concert  house are just a few of the places well worth a visit.

The northern lights are a spectacular natural color display of light in the dark night sky, in relatively high latitudes near and in the polar zones.  They occur in the ionosphere 100-250 km above the earth's surface, where the solar winds bring gas of free electron and positive ions. Iceland is ideally located for those who are interested in watching this unforgettable color display in the night sky between the end of August and mid April each year.  The country is in the middle of the most active zone of the northern hemisphere.

We will not go on a northern lights tour unless the conditions are good.
