Devenir islandais : promenade dans la ville de Reykjavik

Looking for a Reykjavik walking tour that goes beyond the usual sightseeing? Becoming Icelandic is a playful mix of guided city walk, interactive game and fun introduction to the Icelandic way of life. Over 2.5 hours, you’ll explore the historic heart of the capital while discovering the culture, humour and traditions that shape everyday life in Iceland.

Receive Your Becoming Icelandic Passport

Your adventure begins at Idno, a historic building on the shore of Reykjavik’s city pond. Your guide hands you a personal Becoming Icelandic passport, which serves as your map for the tour and your logbook for the missions you’ll take on along the way. Keep it close: it’s your ticket to earning a brand-new identity by the end of the walk.

Explore the Oldest Streets of Downtown Reykjavik

Together with your local guide, you’ll stroll through the oldest parts of the city centre, where colourful houses, hidden corners and historic buildings tell the story of how a small settlement grew into Iceland’s vibrant capital. Along the way, your guide shares local legends, fascinating stories and the small everyday details that reveal what being Icelandic is really about, the kind of insider knowledge you won’t find in any guidebook.

Complete Fun Missions Along the Way

Between the stories, you’ll be challenged with a series of missions designed to help you think, act and live like a local. It’s an entertaining and hands-on way to learn about Icelandic culture, and a great opportunity to share some laughs with your fellow travellers. Whether you’re visiting solo, as a couple, with friends or with family, the missions make the experience lively and memorable.

Become an Honorary Icelander

Complete all your missions, and your guide will stamp your passport and officially declare you an honorary Icelander. You’ll leave with a better understanding of Iceland’s culture, a few great stories to share back home, and a unique souvenir of your time in Reykjavik.
