Fabulous museum! The ice cave and the Northern Lights exhibits are not to be missed when traveling to Iceland. Well done, clean, exceptional exhibits and terrific observation landing. My husband and I went without a tour and it actually took about 2.5 hours to go through it and enjoy everything they had to offer. Time flew by. Don't miss this one!

I had booked this a month before my cruise as it looked really interesting and was not provided as an excursion through the cruise line. It did not disappoint! It was quite the adventure getting there by myself from Reykjavic on the public transit, and even more so getting back to the ship, but at least I can say I did it! Everything in the museum is basically self guided, but was really very interesting and unlike anything I had seen before. The ice cave, the northern lights show and the observation deck were the highlights. I'm really happy to say I have visited Perlan!

Great place to spend a good few hours, lots of information on volcanoes, glaziers, the aurora, film shows, Ice cave was great but minus 15 degrees inside. The shuttle bus does not run anymore from the Harpa building so we walked there and back. Cafe was lovely on the observation deck with great views.

Great modern museum with interactive displays. The ice chamber is the highlight along with the dome cinema. Really good displays also. Walkable from downtown, around 2k. Food is expensive in Iceland and Perlan is at the top end. Best part of £15 for a large slice of cake, so eat before you go!

The amount of information in this museum is amazing, you can learn so much about the geography of Iceland and experience things in quite a few different ways. The highlight was the Northern Lights show and the Ice Cave - both were incredible and worth visiting just for those alone!! There’s also a 360 degree viewing platform at the top to look over the city. They also have a shop and ice cream parlour too. All staff were lovely and happy to answer any questions we had. Amazing technology in there, too! We walked from downtown Reykjavík, which took about 40 minutes. It is a bit of a trek up the hill, but easily doable!

Nice to visit on a rainy/snowy day. It was fun to eat at the rotating restaurant while admiring the views of Reykjavik. We enjoyed the various exhibits and took our time walking through them. We went on a weekday, which may have been why it wasn’t crowded and there were no lines for the exhibits.

On out second trip to Reykjavik we decided to visit Perlan. We got there early and were able to enjoy the lava show, the ice tunnel and the planetarium. I was massively impressed with all three. The staff were lovely - friendly and helpful. The views are also well worth stepping outside of the dome for.

This is a fantastic museum and we thoroughly enjoyed our 3 hours there. Views are amazing from the top deck, cafeteria was also stunning. All the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, exhibitions were informative and interesting, our favourite part was by far the Ice Cave - amazing experience. Would highly recommend visiting.

We decided to walk here from the city and we had a very nice visit. The aurora show was probably my favourite part, which is in the planetarium and lasts about 20 minutes. The ice cave is good and the small film about volcanoes is also interesting. There is also a 360 viewing deck where you can take some great photos and the cafe on the top floor is a nice place to relax and take in the views with a drink. It is expensive but this is Iceland and its a tourist hotspot so what do you expect?

Visited the Perlan museum today. Brilliant few hours and well worth the admission price ( pre booked tickets). Lava show, Aurora light show and ice cave visit. Interactive glacier exhibit and a zing 360 panoramic views from the top of the museum! Lovely cafe right on the top floor under the glass roof to enjoy the views over Reykjavík . Defo do it on your visit!
