“It was a nice opportunity to see a Viking village. We were very disappointed to stand in one spot in the village for about 45 min for a lecture rather than being toured around. We gathered this was due to it being used by a school group. We felt the tour should be greatly reduced or cancelled in this case. The tour guides were good. No complaints in that regard.”
