Description

Discover the flavors, stories, and spirit of Iceland’s capital on our Reykjavík Food Tour through the city’s vibrant downtown. Nestled between mountains and sea, this colorful Nordic city blends centuries-old traditions with bold culinary innovation. From the comforting warmth of local bakeries to the hearty flavors of Icelandic seafood, every bite tells a story of resilience, creativity, and connection to nature. As we explore Reykjavík’s charming streets, you’ll experience the city through its food and its people. We’ll begin with a delicate Icelandic pastry enjoyed in view of the famous Hallgrímskirkja church before strolling along the lively Rainbow Road and bustling Laugavegur. To finish, we’ll slow down with a cup of rich hot chocolate and a slice of Icelandic Marriage Cake, a sweet symbol of love and hospitality. And of course, no Secret Food Tour would be complete without our delicious Secret Dish, revealed only on the day of your adventure.

Yum!

Day was an amazing tour guide! He kept the mood light with jokes and stories throughout the tour. He really brought the history to life with some personal stories as well. Everything was delicious and the shark was a unique experience I’ll never forget. Make sure you get Dagur/Day and you will have a memorable tasting experience.

Operator response

Guide was a No Show

The guide never showed up. I called. I waited. I wasted 45 min looking for the orange umbrella, as stated, or the woman with the blue hair, as instructed...nobody. So... I'm disappointed but im sure its a good time when it works out. I've requested a full refund.

Operator response

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, Carleen. While our team worked to help you reconnect with our guide while the tour was underway, we understand that the outcome was not what anyone had hoped for. We appreciate you sharing your perspective, as feedback like yours helps us look at how we can make it as easy and seamless as possible for guests to connect with their guide from the very beginning. We also wanted to thank you for your closing comment. Despite what happened, you still felt that it is probably a great experience when everything comes together, and that means a lot to our team. Our tours are built around bringing guests together with a local guide, good food, and the opportunity to discover a destination in a more personal way, so we are glad you could still see the experience we aim to provide. We hope this experience will not be the one that defines us for you. If you find yourself joining us again, we would be very happy to welcome you back and give you the opportunity to experience the tour as it is meant to be enjoyed, from start to finish.

Secret Food Tours never disappoint

This was my fifth food tour with Secret Food Tours and they never disappoint. To me the best way to get to know a city combining facts and food. Adam was a great guide. He gave interesting facts about the city and Iceland in general. We also had lots of fun. Not to mention that the food was great too. Anytime again in any city

Operator response

Thank you for joining us! Reading your comments was a welcome reminder that even a few hours together can leave a lasting impression. We hope to welcome you back to Secret Food Tours.

Must take this Food Tour

My wife and I had a great food tour with Adam. He took us to some great spots and was very knowledgeable about the food and the culture of Iceland. We had probably the best cinnamon roll ever at Braud & Co.

Operator response
