Iceland – a journey through time

Experience Iceland's history in Ísafjörður

In 2013 I changed my Ísafjörður Walk guided tour into an adventure walk, which involves me donning the clothes of a 19th Century fish worker and describing the lives of people in the newly-created commercial centre of Ísafjörður. In addition, I give information about the place, its history and culture, and tell tales and legends from ancient and modern times.

Through my research I gathered  a lot of information, so I decided to write an Ísafjörður guidebook. The book is ideal for independent-spirited travellers who like to "do" places on their own. You might also like to take a copy of the book home as a reminder of our small town home and use it to visit us again, in your mind's eye.
