Not everyone has 2 full weeks available to do the entire ring around Iceland, nor does everyone want to camp out in an RV every night or drive a large portion of each day, so this guide is for all you adventure seekers that still want to make Reykjavik your home for 5-7 days, as you see all Iceland has to offer (just within a few hours of the capital). Tons of commentary, pictures, & links alongside the actual locations, so you can know exactly what to order at each restaurant, how much everything cost, and the tips for each excursion! This is also a perfect guide for quicker trips, like long weekends away, bachelor/bachelorette parties, couple getaways, etc. as there are plenty of excursions, restaurants, and ideas for having a perfect time in the area. This guide will have tons to do whether you're visiting in summer (AKA puffin/whale watching season!) or winter (beautiful Northern Lights). No matter your timing, take a look at some of the best things to do & eat in one of the most beautiful countries in the world!

Iceland is one of those countries that you could spend weeks in, but if you're like me and you don't have unlimited PTO, you're all about maximizing your time. I spent time in Iceland over a long weekend, and definitely had the time of my life.

After a quick trip to this beautiful country - which I am dying to go back to at some point - here are my recommendations for the city of Reyjavik!
