This was really really good. I didn't think it would be as informative and fun as it was. I learned a lot and it was really enjoyable.
Amazing experience!! Super fun for the entire family. Great for a chill day experience, but premium is not needed. A total memory maker!! Ian is a great guide, but everyone there is super friendly.
An experience not to be missed made even more memorable by Luis' humour and vast knowledge. Excellent birthday activity.
Really great experience, like many things in Iceland not very impressive from the outside, mediocre gift shop but great show. Very informative, funny, and exciting!!
The show met my expectations. It was informative and exciting at the same time. What lifted the show even further above my expectations was the host Anne-Sofie. She truly was a great speaker, that managed to make us laugh while learning about the lava.
Thank you for the wonderful review! We’re delighted the show met your expectations and that you found it both informative and exciting. We’re especially happy to hear that Anne-Sofie took the experience to another level with her engaging presentation and humour. Learning about lava is always better with a few laughs along the way! 🌋 We’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to her. Thanks for joining us at Lava Show Vík!
A very interesting show with a brilliant guide in Andrew. Great to hear more about the history of volcanoes on the island, and how they affect daily life. Seeing the lave up close is also fascinating, especially because he was explaining so much about it at the same time. Would definitely recommend.
Thank you, Peter! We’re so glad you enjoyed discovering the different stages of lava as it cools and changes. The delicate volcanic glass formations and the incredible sounds of the lava are such fascinating details to experience up close. Thanks for joining us at Lava Show Reykjavík! 🌋
This was such a cool and unique experience that can’t be recreated elsewhere. I was nervous that it was going to be overly touristy but it wasn’t. Quick fun facts about volcanoes and lava. Our host, Ann-Sophie, was phenomenal. She was energetic and funny and very very knowledgeable. Loved this experience!
Thank you for sharing your feedback, Christopher. We’re glad you took away some new knowledge about lava, but we’re sorry to hear the overall experience didn’t hold your interest. We aim to make the show both educational and engaging, so we appreciate hearing when it doesn’t quite hit the mark for a guest. Thank you for giving Lava Show a try during your time in Reykjavík.
Wow! So cool. From the start with our soup experience we knew it was going to be good. We got front row seats and we thoroughly enjoyed the stories of the surrounding area and to see the lava up close and feel the heat in the room was so cool.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted to hear that you had such a great experience with us in Vík. It's fantastic to know that your visit got off to a great start with the soup experience and that you enjoyed the front row seats. Feeling the heat from the real molten lava while hearing the stories about the local area and Iceland's volcanic history really does make for a unique experience. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We're so pleased you found it "so cool," and we hope to welcome you back to Lava Show the next time you're in Iceland! 🌋😊
Very disappointed. I booked this show naively thinking that we could have a translation in French (headset) and nothing at all. Just a 2-page French text providing the translation of the video that was subtitled in English and the only understandable part of the activity! I would not have booked if I had been informed about it beforehand. That is my main complaint. You find out at the front desk and they do not offer you the option to cancel. If you are not comfortable with English, I do not recommend it. Otherwise, our son, who was comfortable with English, enjoyed it a lot.

Fun, informative and where else will you see Lava indoors??? Our guide Luis was knowledgeable and fun! We learned so much about Katla and the other Volcanoes here in Iceland. Would do it again!!
Dear Alexandra_L, Thank you for the fantastic review! We’re so happy to hear that you had such a fun and informative experience at Lava Show Vík. You’re absolutely right—there aren’t many places in the world where you can safely see real molten lava indoors! 😊 We’re delighted that Louis made the experience both engaging and educational, and that you enjoyed learning about Katla and Iceland’s incredible volcanoes. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. Thank you for your recommendation, and we’d love to welcome you back for another molten experience the next time you’re in Iceland!
