Overview

Get ready for a fun and feline-filled adventure through the streets of Iceland’s capital. This self-guided walking tour is all about Reykjavík’s beloved cats—past and present.

You’ll explore the city’s history and culture through the eyes of its furriest residents, with stops at cat-themed murals, cosy shops with resident felines, and even Reykjavík’s one and only cat café, Kattakaffihúsið, where you can relax with a coffee and meet adoptable rescue cats.

Along the way, you’ll hear surprising facts, folklore, and stories about cats in Iceland and around the world—from Viking-era pets to mythical creatures like the Yule Cat and Freyja’s giant feline chariot-pullers.

You might even catch a glimpse of Reykjavík’s most famous local cats, including Baktus, Jonesy, and Ófelía.

The tour begins at Ingólfstorg Square and ends near Hallgrímskirkja, at the peaceful sculpture garden of Einar Jónsson. It’s an easy walk, takes around 2 hours, and is perfect for cat lovers of all ages.
