Privé folklore- en eetwandeltocht door Reykjavik

A Combination of Folklore & Food

Your Private Reykjavik Folklore Walk with traditional Icelandic food in the end.

IJsland wordt ook wel het land van de Sagen genoemd en tijdens deze wandeling krijg je de kans om veel interessante sagen te horen waarbij de verborgen mensen en wezens van IJsland betrokken zijn

We will tell you all about the Icelandic Elves, Trolls, Ghosts like the Deacon of the dark river, the unique mostly aquatic monsters, the 13 Santa (it's not enough to have just one Santa Claus in Iceland after all, and their mother the child-eating troll called Grýla 

Je krijgt ook een introductie over IJslandse magie en de runen van weleer

In the long winter nights in Iceland storytelling has been the primary entertainment for people so there are reasons why Icelanders love books and have the highest literacy rate in the world. 1 in 10 Icelanders writes a book in his life so we obviously love to tell stories and you sure won't be disappointed by joining our walk and hearing a couple. J.R.R. Tolkien was heavily influenced by Norse mythology and the Icelandic Sagas when he wrote The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit so we will explain some of the fun similarities between our Icelandic Mythology and J.R.R.S Middle Earth. It's perfect for those who want a little adventure in their life because the story's come alive on our walk.  For families, please keep in mind that some of the stories can be scary to little children so it's also possible to contact us regarding a private walk where we can dial the scariness down a notch ;).   

After our lovely walk together we end up at a great Icelandic restaurant for a good traditional lunch
