Private Reykjavik Folklore & Food Walking Tour

This is a combination of our Folklore & Food private tours!
After our lovely walk together, we end up at a great Icelandic restaurant for an excellent traditional lunch!

Iceland is sometimes called the land of the Sagas, and on this walk, you get to hear many exciting sagas involving Iceland's hidden people and creatures. We will tell you all about the Icelandic Elves, Trolls, Ghosts like the Deacon of the dark river, the primarily unique aquatic monsters, the 13 Santa (it's not enough to have just one Santa Claus in Iceland after all, and their mother the child-eating troll called Grýla.  You will also get an introduction to Icelandic magic and old runes.

 In the long winter nights in Iceland, storytelling has been the primary entertainment for people, so there are reasons why Icelanders love books and have the highest literacy rate in the world. 1 in 10 Icelanders writes a book in his life, so we obviously love to tell stories, and you sure won't be disappointed by joining our walk and hearing a couple. J.R.R. Tolkien was heavily influenced by Norse mythology and the Icelandic Sagas when he wrote The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, so we will explain some of the fun similarities between our Icelandic Mythology and J.R.R.S Middle Earth. It's perfect for those who want a little adventure in their life because the stories come alive on our walk. For families, please remember that some of the stories can be scary to little children so it's also possible to contact us regarding a private walk where we can dial the scariness down a notch ;).
