Street art tour
A really great walk and talk around the city’s street art. Stefan provided really great background details to the artworks themselves. Highly recommended

Highly recommended for street art lovers
Excellent tour! Our guide Bo was extremely knowledgeable and insightful about the street art scene in Reykjavik. It was a much richer experience seeing these pieces with a guide. Bo was a great source of information on Icelandic culture and history as well.

A walking tour of the murals of Reykjavik.
Our guide Stefan was extremely knowledgeable and charismatic. He told us the myths associated with some of the murals.
Response from the operator: Hi Harry, Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your tour with Stefán 🎨✨ He’ll be thrilled to know you appreciated his knowledge and storytelling about the murals and their myths. We hope to see you again soon for another walk filled with art, history, and local tales! 🇮🇸 With gratitude and warm regards Steina Your Friend In Reykjavík

A great way to see the city's core
I think this is a fairly new tour for this company, who also does food waking tours. The guide was a native who was very knowledgeable, not only about street art but also the general history of Reykjavik. This is a "walking" tour so if you're not up to walking on mostly flat sidewalks for several miles maybe not the best idea. Keep an eye out for the Queen of Reykjavik!

Private Reykjavik Street Art Walking Tour - The Instagram Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.
How much does Private Reykjavik Street Art Walking Tour - The Instagram Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $165 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Reykjavik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Reykjavik Street Art Walking Tour - The Instagram Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Reykjavik is not rushed.
Is Private Reykjavik Street Art Walking Tour - The Instagram Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Reykjavik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Reykjavik Street Art Walking Tour - The Instagram Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Reykjavik Street Art Walking Tour - The Instagram Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Reykjavik Street Art Walking Tour - The Instagram Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Reykjavik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Reykjavik and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Reykjavik Street Art Walking Tour - The Instagram Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Reykjavik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Reykjavik?
+
On Outty we rank every Reykjavik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Reykjavik Food Walk - Local Foodie Adventure in Iceland, Silfra Snorkeling Between Continents Photos Included- Self Drive, Small-Group Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon with Ticket & Kerid Crater. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Reykjavik?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Reykjavik?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
