HEEEY GUYS! I'm looking for video ideas / Iceland topics for my upcoming videos! 👀 Soooo I wanted to check: What would YOU like to see? Iceland travel itineraries, Icelandic phrases to learn before your trip, road trip stuff?? I genuinely would love to know so that I can make exactly the type of content that you'd be most interested in seeing. Let me know! ✌🏻❤

We were there in April 2023. We finished seeing the South coast. We loved Iceland so much that we booked another trip to be there during the Christmas week to see the North coast this time. Hoping to see the Northern lights. It would be great to see more videos about visiting the North side in December and maybe seeing the active volcano as well :)

Hey! Your videos have been super helpful! I will be in Iceland in September 2023 for a week. So excited to visit as I should have been in 2020! your ideas about Iceland travel itineraries, Icelandic phrases to learn before your trip and road trip advice is great! I'm from Scotland, so it'll be nice to experience a different culture as well as take in the beautiful views of the northern lights and landscapes! Hard to choose from the wide variety of tours haha. Hope you all had a lovely Christmas and all the best for the New Year!

Sounds amazing! I wish we were going to be there. We’re coming to visit at the beginning of February. How do the day tours like Golden Circle work if there is a storm or a road closing? I know you already answered my question about fish allergies on the Reykjavik Food Walk and I appreciated your response. Thanks.Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year’s Eve!

@WakeUpReykjavik. Жыл бұрын

Heeey Sarah! Thanks for your comment. December is a wonderful time to visit but I have no doubt you'll love it here in February as well :)) If we receive a heavy snowstorm here in Iceland and the roads outside of Reykjavik are closed then the tour won't be able to be operated on that day and will be cancelled. You would then have the option of either receiving a full refund or rescheduling to a date with better weather where all of the roads would be open :) I hope this helps!

Loved the video. We are coming in on the night of the 13th, then heading to the Ranga for the next 4 days. We plan on stopping into Reykjavik on our way to the hotel for lunch. Then, we are doing the food tour with you guys on our last day (the 19th). We will probably do lunch and walk around town before joining the tour. Do you have a few recommendations for where we should eat on the 14th and that afternoon before meeting up with you guys? Thank you again for the most excellent information. Skal!
