Walking tour on Viðey island with a naturalist

You also learn about the island's significant trading history, captivating artwork, historical buildings and the surrounding nature. You might even catch a glimpse of the magnificent northern lights dancing overhead, adding a magical touch to your experience!
Refreshments & Wish Tree
We then make our way to the beautiful Viðey Church and Viðey House, two of Iceland's oldest stone buildings. There you will be able to warm up with a comforting hot chocolate, along with a "kleina", a traditional Icelandic twisted doughnut!
In Viðey House you have the opportunity to write down a wish and hang it on the Wish Tree, another one of Yoko Ono's creations. Various versions of the Wish Tree are displayed in locations worldwide and creates a living monument to the viewers dreams.
"Make a wish. Write it down on a piece of paper. Fold it and tie it around the branch of a Wish Tree. Ask a friend to do the same. Keep wishing until the branches are covered with wishes." - Yoko Ono
Return to the Old Harbour
On our way back to the dock, your guide will lead you to a lookout at the top of Sjónarhóll hill, where you’ll enjoy stunning views of Reykjavík's skyline and a final glimpse of the Imagine Peace Tower. Be sure to take it all in and remember to IMAGINE PEACE.
