The first stop is usually the Harpa concert, conference and opera building opened in 2011. We then visit the sculpture Sun Voyage (the Viking ship) before heading over to the world-famous Hofdi house where Presidents Reagan and Gorbachev met in October 1986. Depending on the time we may visit Laugardalur valley and the landmark Reykjavik church Hallgrimskirkja. On the return trip we ride through the Old city centre.
