A must-have to discover Islandic food and Gastronomy - A fantastic tour in which we learn a lot about Icelandic gastronomy, lifestyle, consumer habits, traditions and more...
Numerous stops at small producers or restaurateurs renowned in their field: join Sabrina on an empty stomach, otherwise you won't be able to enjoy the food, as we eat the equivalent of a very good meal in one afternoon.
Sabrina is passionate about her work and knows how to pass it on: sign up and you'll have a great time you'll remember for a long time to come!

Calling all foodies! - Most people come to Iceland to enjoy the stunning views, waterfalls, and hot springs. What few people know is that Iceland has an interesting cuisine. Bitesized Iceland's Old Harbor Food Tour gives you a great introduction to Icelandic culinary traditions and you get to enjoy tasty, modern dishes along the way. Our host was extremely knowledgeable and we had a great time exploring Icelandic food and culture.

Give this good tour a try! - So much fun to take this tour with Sabrina. She was a great host, full of lots of information and history of the area. All of the food we tasted was amazing and different than the classic ‘Iceland hot dog’ that you get on other tours. Just the right amount of walking in between the tastes.

Great tour. Great food. Great host. - If you're visiting Reykjavik and looking for good food and company, I can't recommend this tour enough. Slightly off the beaten path of downtown and Laugavegur, you'll get a chance to sample some of the local eateries, experience a bit of history, and get ideas for more great places to eat on your trip.

Sabrina knows her food! - Sabrina knows her food! We got to try real local treats and see a nice part of town with a guide that really knows the place. Avoid the rotten shark / whale / puffin alternatives!

Go try this! - There's a lot of secrets hidden in the Icelandic food culture and in this tour, we were shown a unique look into that.
We can totally recommend Sabrinas Food Tour, which was one of the Reykjavik highlights overall.
