I had the impression we could stay on at the last stop on the route and carry on back round the loop. Digital voice informed us all to alight. This was bit disappointing. Live tracker aspect to identify bus location very useful in bad weather.

Disappointing overall. Poor frequency of buses. Buses don't stick to timetable and location map doesn't always work

Your bus and operating equipment were great. It was really easy to purchase tickets on-line. The route was very usable.

These tickets are valid for 12 months from the date of purchase.

Prepare for the vacation of a lifetime as you explore all of Reykjavik's best attractions! Your pick-up location is outside Harpa, the concert hall and conference centre. The best way to see all of Reykjavik is from the comfort of the bus, so ride it all the way to the end. Once you've completed the loop, you'll have a good sense of the city's layout and attractions and be prepared to go further.

To help you make the most of your stay in Reykjavik, consider this list of the three attractions that you really must see. The first stop should be at Hallgrimskirkja. It dominates the skyline in Reykjavik and is visible from practically everywhere in the city, but it must be experienced up close to be fully understood. Get off of the bus here to get your bearings and marvel at its massive height. It's one of the highest structures in Iceland, standing at 75 meters in height. You can get back on the bus and continue seeing Iceland, but stop at the National Museum before you do. The museum displays about 2,000 artefacts that span the whole human history of Iceland, from its first settlement by the Vikings to the current day.
