Set out to discover Iceland's northernmost fishing village, Siglufjordur. Along the way, you'll stop at a viewpoint for the opportunity to snap a few photos of the local fjord. Upon arriving in Siglufjordur, visit the town's Herring Era Museum which showcases the long-lost industry that blossomed in the 1940s and 1950s. Enjoy a lively "herring salting" show that takes you back in time accompanied by accordion music. Watch the "herring girls" salt and pack the prized fish, and enjoy a tasting accompanied by fresh rye bread and Icelandic schnapps. From here, make one last important stop to the Folk Music Center to learn the treasured history of Icelandic folk music. Enjoy the scenic drive back to Akureyri, ending at the pier.
