Our group dove into a delightful two-hour journey through Reykjavík’s sweet side, where we found ourselves tasting everything from creamy skyr to decadent pastries. The transportation to various local spots was seamless, and our guide’s enthusiasm made each stop feel special. We especially loved the hidden gem bakery tucked away from the main streets, where each treat burst with flavor! One small hiccup was that we wished for a bit more time at some locations to savor the sweets.
