Experience Details*
This small town has long been a hub of Icelandic trade and culture and, unsurprisingly, has developed unique and quirky charms. Find out about its colourful past, and the famous characters who’ve lived here, as your guide shows you through the narrow lanes lined with 19th-century wooden houses.
Visit key landmarks such as the pretty church and the touching fishermen’s monument and take a stroll to the Westfjords Maritime Museum. Here, in one of Iceland’s oldest houses, you’ll gain an insight into how the fishing industry helped build Ísafjörður. You will also get the opportunity to try dried fish and Brennivín, an Icelandic alcoholic schnapps.
