Our Iceland Travel App is mobile-based and can be used on your personal phone or tablet.  

Please note that you can download the app on three devices.  We can provide access for extra devices at an additional fee. 

Let’s get exploring! Your travel documents will include a PDF document about the Iceland Travel App. Please open this PDF. You’ll see a QR code that will take you straight to the app with your unique login. If you don’t want to use the QR code, you can also download the Iceland Travel app from your iOS or Android app stores and use the login information provided in the PDF. 

The App contains a map that you can easily use online and offline, whether you are planning your trip at home or are travelling on the road in Iceland.  

Here is some helpful information about your Iceland Travel app.  

  • The app includes maps of South, West, North, and East Iceland. The map can be used online and offline, so you do not need to be connected to Wi-Fi and data to use this.  
  • The map features hundreds of places of interest plus an audio guide for top destinations in each area. These places of interest contain details about the areas you might visit during your trip.  
  • You can also conveniently access your travel documents in the app by going into your app profile under the tab titled “Documents“ and then selecting the item “Travel Documents.” You must be connected to Wi-Fi or data to see these documents. 
  • You can find links to electronic versions of our Iceland Travel Road Book in English, French, Italian, Spanish and Dutch. You can find the Road Book in your profile under the “Documents” tab >> “Operator details”. The Roadbook covers all the interesting places in Iceland plus information about festivals and events, and tips for drivers in Iceland. 
  • If you prefer not to use the App, links to our PDF Roadbook are available in your travel documents or in the app in your profile under the tab “Documents” >> “Operator Details“. 
  • You can navigate from your current GPS location to your desired Point of Interest in the app by clicking “Navigate Me” under the name of the point. Disclaimer: the navigation feature in the app should NOT be used instead of your normal GPS navigation system, such as Google or Apple Maps or the system provided to you in your rental car. The navigation defaults to walking directions, which are ideal for a stroll around Reykjavík. You can also switch it to driving directions by selecting the car icon on the top left.  

See below for a video demonstration. 
 
NOTE: For hotel and pre-booked activities, you should consult your travel documents. 

If you have suggestions or encounter a bug when you using the app, please let us know at bookings[at]icelandtravel.is. In your email please also let us know the name of the travel agency you used  for your booking and your booking number.

Enjoy the app, and we wish you a wonderful trip in Iceland!
