WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. National Gallery of Iceland (Listasafn Islands)
The National Gallery of Iceland is a national museum and the main emphasis of the collection is on 19th and 20th century Icelandic art, but international art is featured as well. The museum owns the most valuable collection of works by Icelandic artists in the country. The collection also includes an impressive array of works by internationally renowned artists such as, Pablo Picasso, Edward Munch, Karel Appel, Hans Hartung, Victor Vasarely, Richard Serra and Richard Tuttle.
2. Reykjavik Art Museum Hafnarhus
The old harbour warehouse, Hafnarhús, offers a progressive exhibition program with local and international contemporary artists. The works of key figures, as well as established and emerging current artists are presented in six galleries. Hafnarhús is also home to the works of Erró (b. 1932), a significant player in the international pop art scene. Hafnarhús is located in the oldest part of Reykjavik, where the town’s boats and first docks lay. The building was erected in the 1930s and at the time it was one of the largest buildings in the country.
3. Reykjavik Art Museum Asmundarsafn
The sculptor Ásmundur Sveinsson (1893–1982) designed, worked and lived in this beautiful building now serving as a part of Reykjavík Art Museum. The white dome structure is surrounded by Sveinsson’s sculptures in the garden, both his earlier massive figures and his later light abstract compositions. The inside of the building offers a unique experience as the artist’s design, inspired by vernacular Mediterranean architecture, is a stand-alone work of art. Sveinsson’s work is often exhibited in there along with the works of other modern or contemporary artists.
4. Reykjavik Art Museum Kjarvalsstadir
Kjarvalsstaðir houses the works of one of Iceland’s most influential and recognised artists, Jóhannes S. Kjarval.

5. Reykjavik Maritime Museum
The exhibition Fish & folk – 150 years of fisheries at the Reykjavík Maritime Museum is about the history of the Icelandic fisheries, from the time when rowing boats gave way to large fishing vessels in the late 19th century, through to the 21st century. This rich history is told from the perspective of Iceland’s biggest fishing port, Reykjavík. The Maritime Museum’s setting is an appropriate one, as the building once housed a flourishing fish factory.
6. Arbaer Open Air Museum
Árbær was an established farm well into the 20th century, and the museum opened there in 1957. Árbær is now an open air museum with more than 20 buildings which form a town square, a village and a farm. Most of the buildings have been relocated from central Reykjavik.
7. The settlement exhibition
The Settlement Exhibition - Reykjavik 871± 2 deals with the settlement of Reykjavík. The exhibition is based on scholars theories on what the heritage sites in central Reykjavík can tell us about the life and work of the first settlers. The focus of the exhibition is the remains of a hall from the Settlement Age which was excavated in 2001. The hall was inhabited from 930-1000. North of the hall are two pieces of turf, remnants of wall which was clearly built shortly before 871. This is one of the oldest man-made structures so far found in Iceland.
8. Reykjavik Museum of Photography
The museum’s exhibitions focus on Icelandic photography, works from Collection and works of foreign photographers. The museum exhibits both historical and contemporary photography in artistic- social- and cultural context.
9. Videy Island

Gerðarsafn is a progressive museum with an emphasis on modern and contemporary art, located in the heart of Kópavogur.

The exhibition program echoes the museum‘s status as the only Icelandic museum built in honor of a female artist.
11. Natural History Museum of Kopavogur
The museum divides into two categories, geological and zoological. The geological part focuses on the formation of Iceland and the major types of rocks and minerals.

If possible, the guidance is adapted to the interest, age and language of our guests. Guidance should preferably be reserved in advance, especially for groups. Guidance is a part of our service and therefore always free.
12. Reykjavik Family park and Zoo
Not just farm animals There are a lot more animals at the zoo than most people think. Icelandic farm animals, mammals from the country's wildlife, in addition to a small exhibition of reptiles, amphibians and insects. Fun for everyone at anytime of the year Playgrounds are open in the summertime as well as on the weekends during the winter, weather permitting. Castles, zip-lines and other equipment are always open. It's also nice to just stroll around in the beautiful surroundings.

Ásgrímur was born on March 4th, 1876 on the farm Suðurkot in Rútsstaðahverfi in South Iceland's Flói region. In 1897 he moved to Copenhagen, where he studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Art from 1900 to 1903. Ásgrímur stayed abroad until 1909 and spent his last winter in Italy.

Grapped the 24 hour card because I only had part of a day, headed over to Reykjavik Centre, and bounced from the The Settlement Exhibit, the City Museum, Reykjavik Art Museum Hafnarhüs, and Reykjavik Museum of Photography. Thoroughly enjoyed every exhibit -- the Settlement and Hafnarhüs in particular were standouts. And I saved over 50% in entrance fees!

Easy to redeem at a museum and then to use. Worth the money, you will certainly get cheaper if you move a lot with the bus or visit multiple museums.

The Settlement exhibition and the Maritime Museum were all we could manage in one day - so much more to see in a short space of time.

These are really worth getting if you want to use local swimming pools and/or museums and galleries. They might seem a bit expensive initially but they work our really well AND include free local bus travel too! We won't hesitate to get them next time.

Places didn’t open until 10 am to get the card, and bus system was confusing. Because of the bus (long times to get places) and not being able to pick up the card after 1000, we barely used the card for admission to places. Also, the zoo is like a petting zoo. Do not recommend.

Unfortunately the weather wasn’t very good and when we went to the zoo all the way on the bus everything was closed I wouldn’t recommend one this time of year.

Possibly in the summer months

It was a waste of money. Bus routes often more difficult than walking, or involved nearly as much. Doesn't include lots of stuff. We went on lots of tours and walked most of the rest. Museum just city ones which except settlement in City and the open air one mostly dull. Limited exhibits. You will prefer to pick and choose to see some.

So glad we got this, it made our lives so much easier and we saw so much.
We used this for the maritime museum, the settlement museum, 3 art galleries and used the discounts on Perlan, The Phallus museum and Saga. Overall easily would have spent over double the amount had we not got it and it meant we saw more than we would have otherwise. Didn’t get on the busses as everything is so close together, but the bus system looked really good and gave easy access to the city

Excellent value, definitely would do again. I got to visit three museums and rode the bus. So much simpler to do the card ahead of time and then not worry about budgeting for entrance ffes and bus fare. I walked most places in Reykjavik but it was super helpful to be able to hop on a bus for a bit, too.
