Same. Wife and I went for New Years this year and it was by far one of the most satisfying vacations I've ever taken. Absolutely nothing about the place is overrated, and we lament how little of it we've experienced.
It is as close to magic as anywhere I've been, and their New Year celebration is insanity.
- cdelsolar 3y agoI went up to the hill in the center of Reykjavik for New Years and was astonished, completely astonished by the amount of fireworks that could be seen.
- ctennis1 3y agoWe have plans to visit for this coming New Years, (unless things get dramatically worse I suppose). Excited in reading your comment.
- bmelton 3y agoIf you can, see if you can get to a bonfire a few hours beforehand. Travel / tourism agencies can arrange this. Also, if you'd enjoy seeing the Aurora Borealis, know that due to weather, clouds, etc., it isn't very reliable, and it may be best to plan on multiple attempts at it. The experiences we had ranged from disappointing to terrifically amazing, but if we'd only gone the one time, we'd have left without having experienced it.
- hef19898 3y agoBeen there three times in winter, never saw an aurora brealis once... Still great trips so!
- baz00 3y agoThe hotdogs are very overrated! Hospital in Selfoss is amazing though, especially after eating one :)
- WXLCKNO 3y agoI thought how can a hotdog be better.. its a hotdog. They blew my mind, best hot dog i've ever had. Even ordered some directly from Iceland after coming back with all the toppings.
- baz00 3y agoI think I ate three over two weeks and they were all awful. The only thing that was really nice there was pepper cheese.
