Let's Speak Iceland, a funny and good history lesson about Iceland, and funny. I found the pink brochure in the hostel, but they moved the performance location to the Vikingardin Restaurant (very close to The Dubliner in the town centre). Pretty funny.

The National Museum was very interesting. It was a long walk (maybe 3 km) but very good displays about life in Iceland and history.

There's a supermarket and some takeaway restaurants options within a 10 min walk. Take advantage of the excellent breakfast served at the hostel too!
For great nightlife try... 29 Jul 2011 Jason, Australia:
We went on two pub crawls - no idea of the name of the places tho. There's one particular place that has a reggae night on Fridays - good tunes. Ignore the gripes about drinking in Iceland being expensive - it's cheaper than Australia! Grab a bottle of something duty free at the airport too.

Everything! We did some hiking at Sneafellsjokull and Thorsmork, visited Vatnajokull and Solheimjokull, and did the Golden Circle. I'd highly recommend Arctic Adventures for your guides - a great bunch of people.
For good eats check out... 26 Jul 2011 Tyler, USA:
The Sea Barren was not cheap, but well worth it. The local fish markets are also a great option if you would like to cook at the hostel, there is one near by the Reykjavik City Hostel.

Go to the local swimming pools to get some good exercise and check out some of the local hotties.
