    Thank you so much for joining us at the Blue Lagoon! 🥰 Going through all the footage from that day had us both laughing way too hard hahaha. This is one of those videos that make me feel SO glad that we document all our adventures, because one day, when we’re 80 years old, we’ll pull this baby back up for a good laugh. 😂 It’s funny how taking a couple hours to enjoy a nice, outdoor spa, really gave us a fresh kick of energy and fun, and I love that we get to share it with you all. 😁
    Here are all the Get Your Guide tickets we used in Reykjavik, and as always, if you are going to book any of the things we did, consider using our link, because it helps support our channel! 🤗

    Thanks for taking us along on your Icelandic trip! I was quite impressed with the Blue Lagoon. The Icelandic people are so into innovation. You payed for everything with the bracelets on your wrists. Everything was super clean. The Fly Over Iceland feature had to be a blast too. Eating those Icelandic hot dogs had to be delicious because you ate 2.5 Icelandic hot dogs a piece that were equivalent to eating 5 U.S. hot dogs! I cannot wait until your next Icelandic video comes out.

    This was the best overview of a day at BL. You guys helped me to decide on the Premium package over the Spa Retreat package. This was based on your super attitude and the enjoyment you experienced with the general lagoon. We have a party of 3 and you have to pay full price $635 at the Retreat Spa for just one person. It is the same price for 1 person as it is for 2 people! I feel we should save our money and just book into the Retreat Hotel at a later date. Unfortunately, the Blue Lagoon hotels had no availability during our stay in Iceland. 😭

    Once again, a great video. Although James & I did a different (more remote) hot spring rather than the Blue Lagoon, your video prompted us to look at our photos and map from our 2018 drive around Iceland. Aside from the ill-fated rental Citroën, and perhaps pushing a bit hard to stay on schedule some days, we truly remember that trip as one of the most scenic... waterfalls, glacial bays, paint pots, volcanoes, and horses with stylish hairdos too 😀... way to go, you two! Peace and Happy Travels.

    @rwandaforever6744 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    While the Blue Lagoon is a bit of a tourist trap, it is still fun and you get what you paid for. The area is indeed quite massive and even on a busy day, you can find a spot where you can be a bit separated (you can still see other people, but you do not have to squeeze right next to them for a spot). You usually get one mask and one drink for free. When you get a bit cold after a while adapting to the temperature, you can go to certain spots where the pumps are pumping the hot water from down below and it ups the temperature in that area a bit so you can snuggle in again^^ Or just go outside and go back in after a few minutes.
    I cannot recommend the restaurant. While it's not bad, it pales in comparison to others in the area...and it is even more pricey. Hence, tourist trap^^ For a nice drink and milk shake, I would recommend "Lebowski" in Reykjavik. Not sure if you can still get a White Russian nowadays, but their shakes are really good. Since you already had the HotDogs, there are only two food items that can top that: a piece of that amazing lamb and fresh prawns. Have fun on Iceland! Oh, and BTW, it is not really "Scandinavia" since only Norway, Denmark and Sweden are considered that, but being inclusive, they usually lump Iceland and Finland in, too^^

    • @JonazDrumBrain
      @JonazDrumBrain 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Pretty late to answer, but they do indeed still do White Russians, as it is the staple of that bar (They even have a separate White Russian menu with many different types of White Russians, my favorite being the COCOA PUFFCASIAN, a White Russian with Cocoa Puffs in it). Since the theming of the bar is The Big Lebowski, then of course they would have to serve White Russians there

    Great video, although I have to admit that I was kind of neutral about the Blue Lagoon. Glad I went, but wouldn't bother going back, it seemed too "manufactured" and "artificial" to me. Kind of like saying "I don't have to go to France, I saw it at EPCOT." Guess I'm not really a "spa person", not really into putting mud on my face. I hope everyone else enjoys it though.
