Explore Reykjavik’s Perlan Museum with an ice cave, volcano show, northern lights planetarium, interactive exhibits, and 360-degree views.

“Perlan is a super place to visit, walk up from the town and spend at least 4 hours there. The exhibits are superb with so much information and interactive displays. The staff are all very helpful and the aurora show in the main audiatorium was really worth it. Take your own snacks though.. Eye wateringly excessive prices in the restaurant but splash out for a coffee and sit and enjoy the revolving dome and the changing scenery of reykjavik and the surroundings. Lovely walks around the grounds of Perlan also.”
