How to get there
Perlan is within walking distance from the conference venue Gróska and from downtown (ca. 2km / 35 minute walk), or you can take the public transport bus, Strætó. When taking the bus, trips can be paid with contactless payment methods on the reader next to the driver inside the buses.
The closest stations are “Perlan” on Line 18 (when traveling away from downtown), and “Litlahlið” (when traveling towards downtown). The last bus goes around midnight. Google Maps and the Strætó site can be used to plan routes.
Taxi is also an option.
Transportation options
There are two main bus stops in the center. The first bus stop is right next to Astoria Capsis Hotel. There are also other suggested hotels that are quite close to the bus stops. The route takes about 40 minutes by bus (heading ITE or PAGNI) and the ticket costs 1,50 € (blue ticket). Ticket vending machines are located next to most bus stations in the centre but you can also buy from most kiosks around the city. Please keep in mind that city traffic may affect departure and arrival times.
