Visit the Hellisheiði Geothermal Exhibition near Reykjavík with a self-guided audio tour, interactive displays, and a Carbfix climate stop.
“Self-guided audio tour. Interactive and bery informative. Can definitely recommend this tour. Both for adults and teens interesting. Children need add some guidance to understand the complexity.”
Walk Reykjavik with offline VoiceMap audio from Hallgrímskirkja to Harpa, Old Harbour, and Parliament, at your own pace.
“This was horrible. I thought it would be a great way to see the sights, but it turned out to be useless. You have to find the first stop on your own--no problem.

Drive Iceland’s Golden Circle hands-free with GPS-triggered stories and offline maps. Great value for groups of up to four.
“We really enjoyed the driving tour and being able to go at our own pace rather than being trapped on a large excursion. The driving instructions were perfects, the Golden Circle had so many interesting stops and the information shared on the tour was interesting and enjoyable for all. I look forward to doing other tours this way in the future.”
Self-guided GPS audio walk in Ísafjörður, Iceland, from Westfjord History Museum to Silfurtorg, with offline maps and art stops.
“You need to understand stand how the app works and to make sure your settings on your iPhone are set properly before beginning the tour. My partner and I had different settings so it was confusing at first as we were not in sync. The audio tour was great. - we really enjoyed it and have recommended the app to several other people”
Solve Reykjavik clues on a self-guided 3-hour audio hunt with GPS, local tips, and flexible stops, starting anytime.
“Greats to see important parts of Reykjavik with a little explanation. Not to difficult riddles and a fine distance.”
Every kind of Icelandic day out, and the best of each.
