What To Expect

MEET THE ELVES, TROLLS & GHOSTS OF ICELAND

Iceland is sometimes called the land of the Sagas and on this mythical walk, you get the chance to hear many interesting sagas involving the hidden people and creatures of Iceland

The Elves & Trolls of Iceland

We will tell you all about the Elves and Trolls of Iceland, Ghosts like the Deacon of the dark river, the unique mostly aquatic monsters, the 13 Santa’s (it’s not enough to have just one Santa Claus in Iceland after all ;)), their mother the child eating troll called Grýla and finally the only known serial killer of Iceland in a land where it’s easy to get lost in the lava fields.

Storytelling is a skill

In the long winter nights in Iceland storytelling has been the primary entertainment for people so there are reasons why Icelanders love books and have the highest literacy rate in the world.

Meeting Point

We meet by the two stone pillars with smoke coming up from the top in the middle of Ingolfur Square. We recommend using Google maps or something similar as the Icelandic street names can be quite tricky. If you are visiting us in December we meet in front of Center Hotel Plaza
