What to do in Reykjavik the very expensive town

 Reykjavik is really expensive. So here’s what I did to keep costs down.

Do

Take the free city shuttle to from ship. Leaves every 20 minutes from 8 to 9:30 pm. Drop off at the concert hall. 10 minutes to old town or 15 to the church walking.

I did the Elding boat tour to see the puffins, About 70 cdn dollars. Loved it.

Did the whales of Iceland museum. Not worth th $33 cdn dollars. Just rubber life size whales.

Walked to free churches both good. 

Great walk along the seafront from ship if it’s a nice day and your fit as it’s 3 miles. You may see whales. There is a house made of recycled metal and wood. A must see and it’s free. The Viking sculpture and a few stone one are also good.

Not

Shopping is way too expensive as are restaurants. I went to a bakery and grocery and got a pastry and pop for Seven dollars

A beer was 15 dollars.

Look at the clearance sale in the souvenir shops. I got magnets etc for a dollar. 

Hope this helps
