These routes include landmarks such as Hallgrímskirkja church and the rainbow-painted street nearby. The harborfront also offers photogenic spots like Harpa concert hall and the Sun Voyager sculpture.

For those interested in guided experiences, daily walking tours are available year-round with optional donations. These tours cover Reykjavík's history and development.
