Four Days in Reykjavík, Iceland - A Travel Guide
This is a bit of a first for this channel, it's a travel vlog that is in NO WAY theme park related! Last week Mrs Hakes and I went off to spend four days in Reykjavík, Iceland. It's a wonderful city, and we had an incredible time here. Below is a list of places we went / tour companies we used.
To save messing around with a gimbal and camera for the whole time it was entirely shot on my Samsung Galaxy Note 9.
Everything went extremely smoothly, from the flights to the transfers and the tours - it was perfect! I'll write up a full post about it all in due course, but for now - here's the vlog.

After spending 7 days driving around the entire country, we were ready to settle into Iceland's capital for 3 days. The city of Reykjavik is small and can be easily explored in a day. However, it makes a great base for day trips to the Golden Circle, Blue Lagoon, or other exciting adventures.

What I Found in Reykjavik, Iceland!
I’m on a new continent! Join me as I explore Reykjavik before heading off on a weeklong tour of the southern half of Iceland on a National Geographic Journey with G Adventures.
My main focus of this trip is to capture the best photos and video that I can, but I also want to make sure that I set aside plenty of time to take in the absolutely insane amount of beauty that this country has to offer. It’s a genuinely special place unlike anywhere else, and the recent influx of tourism has had both positive and negative effects.
After being in the desert heat for far too long, the cold, cloudy, and rainy weather is pretty much the best thing around. With a total country population of roughly 350,000 people, Reykjavik is Iceland’s most populated city, with 200,00 residents.
