Shore Excursions and Short Walks in small groups! My most popular Walk is Ísafjördur Walk (2 hr): Our guide, dressed as a woman from the 19th century, takes you on a walk through the city and up to the slopes above Ísafjörður. On the way you will visit interesting places and receive information on history and culture and hear a lot of stories about elves, trolls and other beings.
