The charismatic guides from Ísafjörður Guide lead tourists from all over the world through the streets and history of Ísafjörður. On both the Ísafjörður Walk and the Elves, Trolls and Stories walk, the guide is dressed up as a woman from the 19th century as she takes the group through the town and its history. The small town of Ísafjörður is unique in Iceland. Its unusually well-preserved town centre dates from the 19th century and still reflects the charming history that remains alive in the legends and stories. Ísafjörður is known today for its multi-cultural vibe and artistic diversity.
On the Ísafjörður Walk you will receive information on history and culture and hear a lot of stories about the people who lived here and their common beliefs. You will also visit the places from where the stories are told.
On Plants you you get an insight into the Icelandic vegetation and see plants in their natural habitat.
On Geology you will learn about the formation of the Westfjords and get interesting information about former volcanic activity and how the glacial period shaped the landscape.
On Elves, trolls and stories you will see interesting places, get an insight into the history of Ísafjörður and hear tales and stories of ancient and modern times.
I also offer special tours.
I am German and have lived in Ísafjörður for years. The greatest thing is to show other people what you like. I am a group leader and tourist guide with heart and soul. My two businesses are: Ísafjörður Guide. Ísafjörður Guide offers short interesting Walks through the historic village Ísafjörður. My walks are: Ísafjörður Walk, Plants, Geology, Elves, trolls and stories, Culinary Explorations and Please Taste. My company emphasises honesty and having well-trained and dedicated Guides. All the culture, nature, and geology walking tours I developed myself. Because I love what I do, I choose to guide many of the walks myself. I also offer special tours.
