Day one in Iceland - I reach Reykjavik and head out to my favorite place to stay in the capital, that is the city center. Located conveniently at a walking distance from all the attractions that Reykjavik has to offer and from the tours to explore Iceland, the city center is the main option for anyone intending to make the most of their travel experience.

Thingvellir National Park

This national park has both a historical and a religious value for Iceland. The best view is strolling in the canyon where you will find mountains, waterfalls, as well as lakes.
