POPULAR PORTS
The choice of ports on a cruise to Iceland with MSC Cruises makes for exciting reading, from cosmopolitan capital Reykjavík in the south to Akureyri’s mountains and waterfalls in the north, alongside Seyðisfjörður’s colourful wooden houses in the east and Westfjords adventures over in Ísafjörður.
ALL PORTS
Explore Iceland fully by stopping off at our carefully chosen ports, which offer a comprehensive journey through the country’s landscapes, attractions and history. Tour the Golden Circle from Reykjavík, delve into local history in Akureyri and immerse yourself in the Westfjords region in Ísafjörður.
1.
Take in Reykjavík’s distinctive architecture when in the Icelandic capital. Seek out the futuristic Hallgrímskirkja church (modelled partly on the shape of basalt lava columns), the angular glass swathes of the Harpa concert hall, and the gleaming glass dome of the Perlan museum.
2.
Make sure to sample geothermally baked bread. Rúgbrauð (also known as hverabrauð or ‘hot spring bread’) is a type of rye bread produced by burying covered dough near geothermal springs, harnessing the natural heat to bake it. Some companies also turn seawater into sea salt by utilising this geothermal energy.
3.
Give yourself a history lesson, just by listening out. Icelandic (a north Germanic language) is largely considered the closest existing language to the primary language of the Vikings – Old Norse. This is because Icelandic retains elements of Old Norse (which it is derived from) in modern-day usage.
