At 74.5 meters (245 feet) tall, it is the tallest church in Iceland, and its tower gives a spectacular panoramic scene over the city. The church was designed by one of Iceland's most celebrated architects, Guðjón Samúelsson, who is said to have sought inspiration for his expressionistic design from elements of the Icelandic landscape.
The church took 41 years to develop, with building starting in 1945 and finishing in 1986. Outside the church stands one of the most important statues of one of Iceland's most legendary Viking, Leifur EirĂksson, by American sculptor Alexander Stirling Calder; EirĂksson was a Norse adventurer from Iceland who discovered the continent of North America in the year 1000, more than half a century before Christopher Columbus. The tower can be reached via a lift.

Perlan
Perlan ('The Pearl') is a museum and rotating glass roof that stands on top of Ă–skjuhlĂð Hill in ReykjavĂk; circled by the Ă–skjuhlĂð park, it is one of Reykjavik's most unique landmarks. The site was built on six water tanks that stored 24 million liters of ReykjavĂk's hot water. Architect Ingimundur Sveinsson originally designed the construction in 1991; the hot water storage tanks that had stood on top of Ă–skjuhlĂð since the mid-20th-century were modernized when the hemispherical glass dome was added on top.
The project was primarily curated by the respected politician DavĂð Oddsson during his time as mayor of ReykjavĂk.
At night, the water tanks are ignited by floodlights that illuminate the building for all of the city to see. On top of the dome signals the airplanes flying to and from the nearby ReykjavĂk Domestic Airport.

Best way to see the city. Our driver/ guide
Thorir was amazing!! Very knowledgeable, accommodating and helpful. He answered all our questions and then some. It was a great way personal way to see ReykjavĂk and the surrounding areas. We could stop and stay as long or as little as we wanted. A definite perk of a personal tour. I highly recommend Viator Private City Tour!!

Great family tour
Published on Aug, 2023
Addy was a wonderful tour guide for our family. We took a Reykjavik city private tour after disembarking from a cruise. We are a family of 7, including 3 young kids. Addy was able to adjust on the fly to the tired, cranky kids, and she helped us have a wonderful visit. She was very knowledgeable and patient. It was a 5-star experience for us.
