Enjoy and safe travels!! Never been, can't really help. If you don't figure it out here or on the internet, I suggest the local library. Always a great place to visit anywhere.

I'll be in Reykjevik in a few months, and since it's such a famous chess country, I wondered about local tournaments. How would I look up options? And what's needed for a visitor to participate? I've never played outside a USCF event, so I don't know what memberships, etc are necessary. (Does one become a FIDE member the way one becomes a USCF member? I don't think so, but what else?)
And are there child- or beginner-friendly events (for my daughter, who also plays)?
What else should do? Does the site of the Fischer-Spassky match still exist, and is it worth seeing?
