5 Incredibly Fun Rainy Day Activities in Reykjavik For All Ages

Published: July 13, 2021, 1:31 p.m.

b'Reykjav\\xedk and the rest of Iceland has gained a reputation for having many rainy days. While I\\u2019m an advocate for going out and dressing well no matter the weather, sometimes it is better to stay inside. Well, if you have to be indoors why not make it fun? The five interactive places I talk about in this episode are so much fun that they will make you forget all about the weather.\\t\\t
\\n\\t\\t\\tAn Experience Like No Other in Reykjav\\xedk\\t\\t
\\n\\t\\tI\\u2019m excited to have FlyOver Iceland as the sponsor of this podcast episode and video. I remember experiencing this interactive ride back when it first opened and I was blown away. As explained in the podcast episode, there are three distinct parts to the experience. First, you enter a Viking longhouse and hear an Icelandic storyteller explain about Vikings and settlers that came to the country. Next, you go into the Well of Time. In this room, an Icelandic troll uses their magical powers to show you visually and through music about the history of Iceland and its people.Last but not least, is the simulated flying experience. After strapping in, you feel like you\\u2019re flying over some of the remote parts of the country. It\\u2019s an incredible experience because there is wind, mist, and the seats are moving like we are in an airplane. Everyone I know who has been there, including my mother, has raved about it. I highly recommend this incredibly fun activity in Reykjav\\xedk.\\t\\t
