Iceland is a somewhat misleading name for this island nation, as it has plenty of green spaces and very livable locations, especially along the scenic coastline. Most notably, Reykjavik has everything expected in a capital city. Explore the great cultural and historic sites in its central neighborhoods and venture beyond the city for fantastic outdoor attractions. Accommodations include luxury hotels, cozy guesthouses, hostels, and even geodesic domes. Decide where to stay in the city or around the nearby suburbs to get the most out of your Reykjavik vacation.
