🔥 Top 10 Ideas in Reykjavik for 2025
Whitewater Rafting
Kick off with a lesson from experts before getting stuck into the 7km raft run as you ride the Reykjavik whitewater rapids. Afterwards, warm up in the on-site sauna and discuss the insane sights from the session.
Quad Biking
Get your gear on and prepare to ride a 700cc Super ATV quad bike on some of Iceland's toughest terrain. Which stag will come out on top?
Snowmobiles
Time to tackle Iceland's 2nd biggest glacier on high-powered snowmobiles. After an intro from the pros, get stuck into stag-action as you hit some insane speeds.
Golden Circle
Check out the geothermal natural hot springs and head to Skjaldbreid, a 1,060-metre volcano. There are stops for food and the opportunity to explore on snowmobiles.
Ice Bar
Put on your winter poncho and thermal gloves and enjoy a complimentary drink in an ice glass. The atmosphere is lively, but it hits 5°C here, so queue the dad dancing to warm up.
Blue Lagoon
After extreme activities and late nights, relaxing in a natural hot spring is the perfect recovery. Nurse those sore heads with the blue lagoon's minerals - it's the best hangover cure.
Glacier Hike
Prepare for a stag-sized hike (exactly 1,450 metres high) up the 700,000-year-old glacier. Whether you want to clear your head or race to the top, the views are outrageous.
Stag Dining
Celebrate the groom's last weekend of freedom with a stag-sized feast as you fuel up ahead of that big night out.
Caving
After a safety talk from the team, discover the epic caves under Blue Mountain and squeeze through a load of volcanic tubes and craters.
Whale Watching
Travel 15km across the sea as you cover the best whale-watching locations in Iceland. Now that's a photo opp!

Reykjavik Nightlife
Laugavegur
Not just Reykjavik's shopping district, this lengthy street is primed and ready for stags with bars, nightclubs, and pubs galore. Head here for unforgettable nightlife.
Einstök Beer
Made from water originally fed from icebergs, Einstök Beer is possibly the coolest beer on the planet. The White Ale is particularly pleasing for a thirsty Reykjavik stag weekend.
Things to See in Reykjavik
The Northern Lights
Witnessing the Northern Lights is a once-in-a-lifetime experience and Reykjavik could be your only chance. Go hunting for them - it's worth it!
Laugardalsvöllur
Football fanatics must visit Iceland's national football stadium. Although there are just 13,000 seats, this place is awesome.
Hallgrimskirkja
This church is the most significant building in the capital. Entry is free, but climbing the tower will cost 900 ISK (roughly £5.50pp).
The Alþingi
Check out the oldest public garden in Iceland, soak up the sights, and shake off those hangovers from the night before.
The Sun Voyager
The Sun Voyager is one of Iceland's most famous works of art. This huge Viking-inspired sculpture sits on the seafront and is a great walk for any tender stag heads after a big night out. Well worth the trip.
How to Get to Reykjavik...
Flights
Only the UK's major airports - such as Heathrow, Gatwick, Manchester, and Glasgow - fly to Reykjavik, so plan around this.
Getting from Keflavik International Airport to Reykjavik
Keflavik International Airport is 51.3km from Reykjavik city centre.
A taxi will cost around £120-£140 from the airport to the city, but that's not bad if you split the fare between the stags.
Buses are a cheaper alternative, with round trips costing about £60 per person.
The easiest way is to book a private transfer. Add this to your enquiry and the transfer will take you to your hotel.
Tips On Getting Around Reykjavik
Walking - This compact city was basically designed for stags to explore on foot.
Bus - Frequent and affordable, the bus is a favourite for navigating the capital. Check the local bus website for more info.
Taxi - The local companies run for 24 hours, so taxis are reliable for heading home after a massive night out.
