As it was our 1st time in Reykjavik we wanted to see what it had to offer. So come with us as we walk around the city and show you what there is to see and do
Hi this was on my bucket list and we love it. and we went back out at night to go to the sky bar for a Drink 🥃 on happy hour. One thing I will say it was cold 🥶. We would love to go back there again but in the summer. nice to see yous enjoy yourself 🤗👍
I went to Reykjavik a few years ago just for the day. Went to the Blue Lagoon which was lovely but I remember being pelted with hailstones whilst in the water! Bizarre.
I’ve done the Iceland ring road a few years back! Was amazing and a trip of a lifetime. You guys should definitely plan it. Rented a car and camped every night for 10 days. We went early September and that is the best time to go. It can be cold and warm but less tourists. Saw the northern lights 4 different nights. One thing I will add is the FlyOver Iceland ride is super cool. I did it in Vancouver where they had a double showing of flyover Canada and flyover Iceland. The Iceland one was amazing and even better than Soarin’ at Epcot. Do it if you get a chance next time.
Sounds absolutely amazing what you did. We would definitely like to do this. A few days on a cruise wasn't enough for us to see Iceland as much as we would like 😁
Visited Iceland last year on the Arcadia lucky to have overnight in Reykjavik. Its a nice walk from ship into town around coast if weather nice. Did the whale watching there really nice . Beautiful city but as you said VERY expensive . Look forward to seeing rest of Iceland again.
Thanks for your walkabout.We had a day and a half on our cruise and did the Golden Circle 8hr excursion on the first day. I suggest booking a local company that has flexibility on what sites to see when to bypass the cruise lines many busses. On the second day, the Braud Bakery, along with the 87 yr. old hotdog stand that I'm not going to spell.😅 If you return to Reykjavik these are great ways to enjoy the days. 😊
Lovely update guys, my good lady and myself were shocked when we were in Alta at the price of a poppadum at an Indian restaurant, it worked out about £4.80. Thankfully we just looked at the menu in the window and had a great meal on the ship at Sindhu. 👍
Hello Kev & Stacey Good info, that will be a great help to us. we have booked Iceland and Greenland next July looking forward to that. We done Norway August this year. A little wet and not to warm But we knew what the weather could be like. so had our wet weather gear back with our summer stuff 😂
Oh I can feel the cold, we were there a few years ago in May, went out on some excursions into the snow, NEVER felt cold like it....The colour everywhere is grey which makes it feel even colder... Stacy you do need to treat yourself to a nice waterproof coat, I saw you get soaked in the Fjords wearing that coat, then you can then enjoy being out in the rain 😉 Love your videos and thank you for taking the time to bring us along with you on your adventures..
We are taking a Greenland and Iceland cruise this summer. It leaves from Reykjavik and we’ll visit the Golden Circle and South itinerary. This is our 3rd trip to Iceland. We want to do a couple of the museums in Reykjavik. We are planning to take a puffin tour, Lava Show, Perlan, and National Museum of Iceland. I love your accent. Are you British? My grandfather was born in Whitehaven.
We enjoyed your stroll though Reykjavik Stacey and Kev. Yes, one day may not be enough to see all of Iceland, but this was a nice taste. What an unusual museum you first came upon. We'll save our 16 pounds and see the whale exhibition instead! 🤣🤣 The hot dogs could be a bargain and judging from the prices there, may lead to it's popularity. I'm going to pass on the Bill Clinton weiner jokes. 😁😁 It does look cold there! We'll bring our own hats and gloves. Grandma is over-rated anyway! The church is lovely as is the statue right next to it. We'll leave the pronunciations to you. The sculpture is nice, Famous too, but we don't see the artists intent on what it represents either. Loved the tour.
Thanks so much Dave and Kathy, would love to hear your Bill Clinton Weiner jokes !! Kev had a name for a Monica Lewinsky hotdog but thought it was better to keep it to ourselves 🤣. Hope you're both ok and keeping well 😁
I get that Iceland is super expensive, but comparing the price of a mass manufactured hat to a hand knit one is pretty unreasonable. Even if it was hand cranked on a knitting machine, it takes a lot of work to get them right, and I don't know that I'd sell a hand knit hat I made myself for that much less than $60, so add the tourism markup, and horns, and 60 pounds sounds about right.
I'm Icelandic. There is some stuff in this video that I had no idea about. There is a penis museum in my city? Btw Iceland is not this expensive, you guys where just looking at the sucky tourist bait shops. 400kr for Appelsín is crazy!
Hi Love watching your blogs on cruising I’m wondering you mentioned on one of your videos that one of your cruises couldn’t dock at stravanger and carried on with a sea day just wondered I’m sure another blogger has said you can claim compensation from your insurance if you have the evidence from the cruise ship is this right
Hi yes that is right we claimed back on our insurance last year when we couldn't go to Stavanger. We have also just done it on this cruise as we couldn't dock in Belfast. The claim was successful and the insurance company has paid out. You will have to ask guest services for a letter if this ever happens to you. Obviously the amount you will receive will depend on what your insurance cover is for missed ports
Great to see your video on your first trip to Iceland. It’s such a shame that you didn’t get a chance to venture further afield though. Iceland is very different to your standard cruise stop, and not easy to really get a feel for it on a quick walk around Reykjavik. We’ve visited Iceland a number of times and love it every time we are there. Hiring a car is highly recommended though for longer stays. We are really looking forward to December as we are actually spending Christmas in Iceland this year! :) Here’s one of our videos from last year, which was a fantastic day…. ruclips.net/video/yr9YFjx-uFY/видео.htmlsi=xvaON9YbrakJSrLu
We saved up so that this year we could take a few more extra weeks out than normal to spend doing what we love which is travelling. Obviously we get paid from youtube too. That helps go towards the cost. Also we work hard over the space of a week or two to make a lot of videos that then go out over a matter of months before the next trip
@OneCouplesAdventure love your videos so natural thank you for all your hard work the only thing that puts myself and hubby off trying one is having to virtual que etc or it's the long queuing at 65 we not very technical
Thanks so much, I'd definitely say try one at least once 😁. We really enjoy them but looking forward to doing something different next year too. Mix it up a bit
I'm Icelandic, and I regret to inform you, NONE of your pronounciations were correct. In most cases you weren't even close. No worries though. I've never known of anyone being able to pronounce Icelandic words correctly unless they actually speak Icelandic. 😁
As it was our 1st time in Reykjavik we wanted to see what it had to offer. So come with us as we walk around the city and show you what there is to see and do
Hey! Did you also visit Greenland or Svalbard?
Hi this was on my bucket list and we love it. and we went back out at night to go to the sky bar for a Drink 🥃 on happy hour. One thing I will say it was cold 🥶. We would love to go back there again but in the summer. nice to see yous enjoy yourself 🤗👍
Thanks Tom, sounds like you had a good evening there 😁
@@OneCouplesAdventurebrilliant night I lot of people do this in Iceland for happy hour because it’s much cheaper for your Drinks. Thanks again 👍
Hi Stacey and Kev. I would love to be there someday. Thank you for sharing your adventures as always. ❤❤
Thanks MaryAnn 😁

Wow how much for a poppadom lol 🙈

Hi thanks so much for watching hope you're ok. The Intinerary you're doing next year that includes Greenland sounds amazing 😁

As always great vlog
Hi Guys Rekjavik is definitely very cool in more ways than one. I would love to go.
Brilliant. You've made me want to go.Already searching
Great video again. Lots of practical advice. How very dare they not have a Starbucks for your collection though
Iceland is definitely on my to do list. 👍
Iceland looks beautiful 😍 TFS
That Hallsgrímkirkja inspired the look of Asgard in Marvel’s Thor movies.
That's cool to know 👍
Recently found you guys,, great videos and content 👍
Thanks Steven

We understand that it's called a joke!
What time in September did you go? I’m going first week in September on the NCL prima. I didn’t think it would be so cold
Middle of September, ye it does get cold then, you could be lucky
I'm Icelandic. There is some stuff in this video that I had no idea about. There is a penis museum in my city? Btw Iceland is not this expensive, you guys where just looking at the sucky tourist bait shops. 400kr for Appelsín is crazy!
Haha this made us laugh 🤣. And yeah think we paid tourist prices lol
Hi what month did you visit Reykjavik?
Hi it was September

What month were you there?
Hi we were there the middle of September
June is cold in icelsnd? Should we bring heavy jacjet ?
Hi went in September, maybe check previous years in June to get an average view of what the weather has been like previously in the month of June 👍
Thank you very .much for taking time to response

No worries though. I've never known of anyone being able to pronounce Icelandic words correctly unless they actually speak Icelandic.
