Reykjavik Flight Guide
Visitors to Reykjavik will immediately feel the energy and natural beauty of Iceland’s capital. It combines both nature and modern lifestyle, making it the perfect destination for a city break. Reykjavik has around 160,000 inhabitants and will rejuvenate every visitor with its fresh air, nature and springs.
Reykjavik by day and by night are two completely different experiences. The city is known for its vibrant nightlife featuring trendy bars and clubs with open-end closing hours. During the day, Reykjavik is a real treat for arts and culture lovers with its galleries, street performers and stories about Icelandic legends. The city centre has a cosy atmosphere despite the vibrant street life and shops. There are two large shopping centres - one of them is the Kringlan Shopping Center where shopaholics will find over 150 shops and many good restaurants. The Icelandic cuisine is very cosmopolitan and the most common ingredients are fresh fish and seafood. However, tourists will find restaurants serving dishes from all over the world.
The winter in Reykjavik gets very cold with average temperatures of -3°C. It is therefore best to plan a visit during the summer months from June – August where the weather is milder and holiday-friendlier. The Reykjavik youth hostel is a popular accommodation option as it is centrally located and has fair prices. Those looking for an adventure may consider camping.
Flights between Iceland and Australia are generally not well developed. Passengers will be likely to travel over 2 days, stopping in Asia and London on the way. Qantas and Iceland Express collaborate on this route and it is generally possible to fly from any major Australian airport.
