A fabulous, world-class museum that is absolutely massive in size, with so much to explore. The indoor real ice cave is brilliantly done, and the immersive virtual reality experiences really bring Iceland's natural wonders to life. To top it all off, the observation deck on the upper level offers an unbeatable 360° panoramic view of Reykjavík and the surrounding mountains, along with a lovely restaurant to relax in. Easily one of the top must-visit attractions in the city!

Honestly, one of the best museums I've been to. I was show at first but it really is worth the expense. It's informative without being overwhelming. It's interesting and interactive with things for kids and adults to enjoy. Be sure to visit the planetarium show, or really is beautiful, thank you guide Gracious for that. Marko was or guide for the initial tour of the museum and that was also excellent. Side note, currently the online tickets are a little less expensive than buying them at the door.

If you're travelling with kids, Perlan is a wonderful way to bring fire and ice into your trip. The ice cave, volcano show and planetarium are well thought out and designed immersive experiences that our 2 & 6 year olds loved. Tickets aren't cheap, it's Iceland so that should come as no suprise, but I'd say they're great value. You'll easily spend 2+ hours here and the cafe and views from it are stunning. If it's a clear day, you can enjoy panoramic views that stretch for miles and miles and miles. The indoor geysir that stretches all the way up to the top floor was also a hit with the kids so this really does deliver a recreation of most of Iceland's "greatest hits" in a single, contained experience. The information throughout the museum is first class too, so there's heaps to learn. All in all, a really fantastic family museum. Staff are all really polite and helpful, but again, this is Iceland, so that's no surprise at all. 10% discount on tickets can be found on Booking dot com.

Very chill natural history museum to visit with kids. They have some great shows, exhibits, the ice cave was definitely the highlight. The 360 revolving restaurant is a nice place to get a view of the entire city though.

This is a very awesome museum that has great history of Iceland and attractions regarding its wonder. Here you can see the northern lights, an ice cave, lava tube and take a virtual ride through a volcano. They have displays about the wildlife of Iceland and it's vegetation. There is a rotating restaurant at the top of the dome where you can see the city. The museum sits in the center of a park, there are trails all around for hiking that are wonderful.
