In Reykjavík, sweets (nammi) are not just treats, they are part of everyday life, built for cold days, quick breaks, and long winter nights. Tasting them in the right places beats guessing from a souvenir rack, especially when flavors like sweet licorice show up in chocolate. On this guided downtown Reykjavík walking tour, you sample pastries, then candy and chocolate, and finish with ice cream. Come hungry for “nammi” and leave with a local’s dessert map.

Itinerary
Your tour begins at Ingólfur Square by Hlöllabátar sandwich shop
Meet your guide outside Hlöllabátar fast food, facing Ingólfstorg Square by the two tall stone pillars. Take a breath, look around, and get ready to wander through downtown Reykjavík with a plan for sweet stops.
Stroll through the city center and spot “nammi"
Walk the cozy streets and scan shop windows for pastries and candy. Your guide points out local snack habits and explains what “nammi” means, so you understand what Icelanders crave when the sweet tooth hits.
Nibble pastries at a local bakery
Step into a bakery and bite into Icelandic favorites like kleina, a local donut, and snúður, an icelandic cinnamon bun, chosen by the season and the day. As you taste, your guide breaks down what you’re eating, from the dough to the spice.
Try chocolate and candy with Icelandic twists
Next, visit a sweet shop and sample Icelandic chocolate and candy, sometimes with sweet, mild licorice. Compare flavors as you go, and learn why these combinations show up again and again in Reykjavík treats.
Savor a final ice cream stop
Then cool off with ice cream at a local spot, where the menu can surprise you. Your guide helps you pick a flavor, and shares practical tips on where to come back later when you want dessert on your own.
