Highlights
Iceland has a great story. Brave settlers, honest politics, a beacon of equality, innocent people living with dramatic nature. Every other tour in Reykjavík will be happy to tell you that story. This is not that tour. Uncomfortable Iceland is a history walk through central Reykjavík for those who want to understand the real history behind Iceland's carefully curated national identity. Led by a local professional historian and experienced storyteller, this walk systematically picks apart the myths, half-truths and deliberate silences that make up the official version of Icelandic history. No prior knowledge of Icelandic history is required. You just need to be curious and open to having your assumptions challenged. Your guide will lead you through the context of each story before revealing how and why it has been distorted, suppressed or simply never told.

Meet Iceland's most famous Viking. The story we tell about him — and the story we don't.
Iceland became a global symbol of standing up to the banks in 2008. The myth is inspiring but the reality is much more uncomfortable.
Jewish refugees turned away and state sponsored racism. The Icelanders who collaborated with the Nazis — and the government that brought them home. Whaling and fishing. Iceland's most contentious industry and one of its most complicated history.
Faith, power and the criminalisation of desire. From the Lutheran Reformation to modern scandals. Church and state is not a simple story here.
Iceland was a Danish colony. But the story Icelanders tell about that relationship is more complicated than victimhood.
Meet one of the most famous Icelanders you've never heard of. His sculptures are in the world's greatest museums. Iceland hid him in a park corner.
The myth of Iceland as a paradise of equality.

About Reykjavik
Reykjavík ist die nördlichste Hauptstadt eines Staates, eine bunte, kompakte Stadt voller Kunst und Musik am Tor zu Islands Vulkanlandschaften.
Die markante Hallgrímskirkja, deren Turm von Basaltsäulen inspiriert ist, ragt über Straßen mit bunt bemalten Häusern auf. Unten am Hafen schimmert die glasfassadige Konzerthalle Harpa auf dem Wasser, und die Skulptur Sun Voyager blickt über das Meer zum Berg Esja. Die Laugavegur, die Haupteinkaufsstraße, ist von Designläden, Cafés und Bars gesäumt.
Top-ranked sights in Reykjavik: Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss, Harpa.
