    Taxi from Hotel to cruise port

    on time (in fact early) - good communication. Just expensive like everything else is in Iceland. Shop around and look for coupon or voucher discounts as they help to reduce prices FYI cruise port was easy and a good experience

    Response from the operator: Dear Keith, thank you — early and well-communicated is exactly what we aim for on a sailing day, and we are glad it ran that way. On price, you are right that Iceland is expensive, and a private transfer is not the cheapest way to reach the pier: what it buys is a vehicle held for your timing and a driver who knows where the ship is berthed. Your advice about looking for discounts is fair enough, and we appreciate you being straightforward about the cost as well as the service.

    Helga was wonderful. She...

    Helga was wonderful. She found us in the hotel early and took care of us so we'll getting in and out of her vehicle.

    Response from the operator: Dear Daryl, what a lovely thing to read — Helga will be delighted. Finding you early at the hotel and making sure you were looked after in and out of the vehicle is exactly the standard we hope for on a cruise-day transfer. We will pass your kind words on to her, and we hope Iceland gets a second visit from you.

    The young lady driver was...

    The young lady driver was on time, and did a wonderful job navigating the city in the middle of a marathon and closed roads. We traveled from our hotel to the cruise port. Highly recommend.

    Response from the operator: Dear Nancy, that particular morning was no ordinary drive — the marathon and Culture Night had a good part of central Reykjavík closed off — so it means a lot that your driver got you to the cruise port calmly and on time. We will pass your praise along to her, and we appreciate the recommendation.

    Driver never showed up.

    Driver had not shown up after 45 minutes. We took alternate transportation. In fairness, festival and marathon closed many streets, however, the marathon and festival have been being held on this day since 1986, so it should have been no surprise. I have asked for a refund, but no response or acknowledgement.

    Response from the operator: Dear James, thank you for a fair and measured review — and I am sorry. Two things deserve an honest answer. The first is that your message on the day went unanswered for far too long, and that is the part of this I am sorriest about. You have since been refunded in full, and I wrote to you directly with the reasoning. The second is the transfer itself. A driver was assigned and on her way to you, held up by the closures for the marathon and Culture Night — but those closures are published weeks in advance, and we should never have scheduled a cruise-terminal pickup into them without a far larger buffer. That was our misjudgement rather than bad luck, and you were the one left standing on the street with your luggage. Thank you for writing it up as fairly as you did.

    Our driver Siggi arrived...

    Our driver Siggi arrived early and met us exactly where he said he would be. He was very helpful in loading & unloading luggage, and provided some information about Reykjavik on our short ride to the cruise port.

    Response from the operator: Dear Kristin, arriving early and standing exactly where he promised is very Siggi, and we are glad the luggage and a little local commentary came as part of the package on the way to the port. Your kind words will be shared with him. Safe travels onward, and we hope Reykjavík sees you again.

    Private Transfer Service from Hotels in Reykjavik to Cruise Ship Terminal: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Reykjavik.

    How much does Private Transfer Service from Hotels in Reykjavik to Cruise Ship Terminal cost?

    +

    Prices start at $125 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 Transfer Service from Hotels in Reykjavik to Cruise Ship Terminal take?

    +

    Plan for about 0.3 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 Transfer Service from Hotels in Reykjavik to Cruise Ship Terminal worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 59 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 73 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 Transfer Service from Hotels in Reykjavik to Cruise Ship Terminal?

    +

    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 Transfer Service from Hotels in Reykjavik to Cruise Ship Terminal suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Transfer Service from Hotels in Reykjavik to Cruise Ship Terminal?

    +

    Around 26 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 0.3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Transfer Service from Hotels in Reykjavik to Cruise Ship Terminal 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.
