During this tour, we will explore the set of the Netflix movie Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga. We will visit all the spots where Rachel McAdams, Will Ferrell and Pierce Brosnan performed their roles.
Our local guide also shows Húsavík’s best spots and some hidden gems, starting from Húsavíkurkirkja, the iconic wooden church built in 1907 (Will Ferrell announces his and Sigrit’s admission to the Eurovision selection from the bell tower of this church).
Other locations of the Walking Tour will be the area of the oldest house ever built in Iceland, by Swedish explorer Garðar Svavarsson in winter 870, and the harbour, heart of the town in the past which even nowadays, in a different way, is the core of the local community.
If you’ve fallen in love with Húsavík during the movie, come here and discover more!
Sigrit and Lars dedicate the very emotional final song to their hometown… Their heart and happiness will always be í Húsavík við Skjálfanda!

We really enjoyed this walk with Francesco who took us to the film location sites and told us some “ behind the scenes” stories. Some of these were via his partner and friends who had been extras. We had not previously heard about the Oscar nomination for the song so that was also interesting. We also learnt about the town itself and the history of fishing and tourism. We had recommendations for places to eat and drink and for local walks. This experience really adds to our enjoyment of our 3 days in Husavik.

This tour was the highlight of our 20th Wedding Anniversary trip to Europe. (Which is saying a lot considering we also went to London, Stonehenge, Bath, Windsor, Canterbury, Dublin, Belfast and made several other stops in Iceland). We are big 'Eurovision: Fire Saga' fans and seeing all the places from the movie was super cool. My wife and I are seriously considering spending a summer in Husavik in the future. We can totally see why the producers picked Husavik as the ideal 'home town's as the setting of the movie and as the inspiration for, and title of, the Oscar nominated song of the same name. We highly recommend this tour and a visit to this awesome country and small town in general!
