About Iceland
Iceland is a refreshingly unconventional travel destination. The Icelandic nature is unspoilt, exotic and mystical with its spouting geysers, active volcanoes, tumbling waterfalls, towering mountains, vast lava plains and magical lakes. Iceland’s fjords, glaciers and highland plains present visitors with some of the most beautiful and enchanting places they will ever see, as well as a rare feeling of utter tranquillity.
For travelers on a quest for action, Iceland’s pristine nature offers great potential for outdoor activities such as snowmobiling, horse riding, cave exploring, hiking, swimming, skiing, river rafting, kayaking and mountain safaris on modified four-wheel drives, to name but a few. Iceland supports a surprisingly diverse Nordic flora and fauna and is an ideal place for ornithology enthusiasts, while also offering some of the world’s best whale watching destinations.
About Reykjavik
Reykjavík sometimes feels like a cosmopolitan capital and a tiny seaside village - all wrapped up in one. But Reykjavík has the best of both worlds; the qualities of a modern, forward-looking society complemented by a close connection to Iceland‚s beautiful and unspoilt nature.
Reykjavík’s legendary nightlife is bolstered by plentiful cultural and social happenings in addition to an abundance of first-class restaurants. The size of Reykjavik city centre is also limited enough to allow for easy navigation by foot. Reykjavík has been described as a young and daring city that is characterized by strong contrasts. Conveniently small, clean and safe, it is more or less free from the major problems that haunt many other capitals. Big city events are frequent, the winter lights festival finished recently with thousands of participants and more tourist at this time of the year than we are used to.

Café Ópera is famous for its Hot Rock Fantasy, which allows dinner guests to cook their own steak on sizzling granite stones. The menu is particularly impressive: from the foie gras, through lobster, and to the Hot Rock Fantasy, the restaurant’s devotion to quality is self-evident. The wine list at Café Ópera shows the same ambition, providing visitors with a broad variety to choose from.
The restaurant offers visitors a set menu consisting of either two or three courses, with a concentration on seafood. The Food & Fun menu grants customers the same opportunity as the Hot Rock Fantasy, allowing them to cook their seafood delicacies according to taste. Between 17:00 and 19:00 the restaurant presents its pre-theatre offer with a 10% discount for customers’ benefit. If planning a visit with a group, you can also enquire about Café Ópera’s different group menus.
The comfortable environment at Café Ópera echoes a New Orleans kind of atmosphere. During weekends, dinner guests can enjoy their meal to the sound of live piano music. The cognac lounge welcomes guests for an after-dinner drink, but is also frequented by people who wish to enjoy a drink or two in comfort. The cognac lounge oozes the same comfortable atmosphere as the restaurant, and stays open until 03:00 on Friday and Saturday nights.
