What to expect

Visit the Elves and trolls of Iceland on this entertaining walk through the oldest part of Reykjavik.
If you want to experience an exciting and different side of Iceland join us and visit an elfstone in the Reykjavik city center and walk through two of the oldest cemeteries in Reykjavik for a truly haunted walk.
We will tell you about famous Ghosts like the Deacon of Dark River, the unique Icelandic monsters, the 13 Santas or the Icelandic Yulelads / Jólasveinar, and their mother the child eating troll called Grýla .
You will also get an introduction into Icelandic magic (how to wake the undead).
In the long winter nights in Iceland, storytelling has been our the primary entertainment and around 1 in 10 Icelanders writes a book in his lifetime so it's obvious... we love to tell stories and you sure won't be disappointed by joining our walk and hearing a couple.Start Location: 4 Austurstræti, Austurstræti, Reykjavík, Reykjavíkurborg, 101
