Reykjavik is a compact city which is easy to navigate, whether on your own two feet or by public transport. In addition, magnificent countryside awaits just minutes away from the city centre. You can explore Reykjavik at your own pace or on one of the many organised tours on offer. Do not be afraid to stop and ask for directions, as people are very friendly and almost everyone speaks English.
Busses
The capital area has an excellent bus system (Straeto): most buses run every 20 minutes, and every 30 minutes in the evening and at weekends. Bus information is available at the bus stations at Hlemmur and Laekjartorg, at the Tourist Information Centre, and Adalstraeti 2.
Taxi Services
Several taxi companies operate in the city of Reykjavik and all of them have phone numbers that you can call to get a cab at just about anytime from anywhere in the city. Some of these companies have special offers for transport to and from Keflavik International Airport. All taxis have official mileage meters, and taxi fares are charged at standard rates.
