SoloVerified booking2 weeks ago5/5I had such a wonderful experience at the Perlan Museum! From the beginning, everything was well organized. The directions were clear, the timing was accurate, and the location itself is absolutely beautiful. The museum was fascinating to explore, with so many interactive exhibits and unique features. I especially loved the observation dome with its incredible panoramic views, and I learned so much throughout my visit. The staff at the front desk were incredibly kind and went above and beyond by helping me understand how to get my tax refund, which I really appreciated. I also enjoyed trying some new desserts at the restaurant and ended up meeting some wonderful people there. It was so interesting hearing about different countries and cultures while enjoying the view. If I could suggest one improvement, it would be to add more chairs near the front of the lava show room so that more visitors can comfortably enjoy the presentation. As a solo traveler, this museum truly stood out. I felt welcomed, included, and treated with genuine kindness. Unfortunately, I had experienced some unfriendly interactions elsewhere in Iceland, so visiting Perlan completely changed my perspective. The warm staff, beautiful setting, engaging exhibits, and welcoming atmosphere made this one of the highlights of my trip. It made my Iceland experience feel truly worthwhile, and I would absolutely recommend visiting!AAdam Z
CoupleVerified bookingJun 20265/5A wonderful place to visit. The best money spent in Iceland. The museum tells the story of Iceland’s wonders—its volcanoes, geology, ice ages, and the flora and fauna of this incredible island—in an interesting, modern, and interactive way that’s easy to follow. Every visitor is treated to a spectacular show consisting of three amazing short journeys: a film about the volcano that erupted in 2010 near the Blue Lagoon, followed by a journey into the Earth’s interior (jaw-dropping!) in a small room with a spherical display (something like the Sphere in Vegas, only in a mini version), and finally, a walk through 400 tons of ice simulating the entrance to the interior of a glacier. It was simply AWESOME!PPaulo M
