Reykjavík Stag Do Guide

Glacier hikes, lagoon soaks, northern lights and a surprisingly rowdy downtown bar crawl. Unforgettable, not cheap.

Expect a typical 3-night weekend to cost around £790–£1095 per person including flights, accommodation, one big activity and nights out — more in peak months.
