If you like wax museums you will love this!For myself, I'm not so much into it but the staff were lovely and the stories were interesting.

You listen to stories of the leading Icelandic Vikings on a headset as you meander through.. short trip but enjoyable. You get a discount with a city card

This museum gives the visitor a half hour journey through Icelandic Viking history, via an interactive tour. Earphones tell the history in your language, the figures are fantastic, & the whole experience was fascinating. Even adults get the chance to dress up as Vikings!! Great for selfies!The onsite cafe is simply beautiful, with the food & drink being plentiful & reasonably priced.Don't miss this one

We went here yesterday after we had visited the settlement museum & the maritime museum. This was by far the best of the three. Staff very friendly & helpful, huge lockers available for free which easily fitted a rucksack & two heavy winter coats. Would recommend this museum even if your not really into this sort of thing

The museum overall was really informative and got me interested in Icelandic history and the sagas. I loved the wax figures combined with the audio description and it was fun to try on the Viking apparel. I would spend more time there next time as it felt fairly brief overall, but I probably rushed it.

Cute museum, great for kids! Like the website says "A close encounter with the most historical figures and major events in the Icelandic history". Dress up like a Viking and take a picture!

a well designed unusual way to explain the history of Iceland. Visiting this museum i had a better understanding and recollection of facts compared with the other traditional museums. The visit was enjoyable and we are very glad we came across this museum.

We came across this museum by accident when we had walked down to the old port. It is definitely worth a visit. The history of Iceland is depicted by a walk through time with the help of headphones in English telling you different important events and also there are very realistic waxworks to depict the events. Once you finish the tour there is an area where you can take photos dressed in costumes (there is no charge to dress up) which was great fun. Also there is a little area where you can watch a film about how they made the museum and how the waxworks were made which was very interesting.The staff were very friendly. Cost of entry was £10 per person (2000 krona) which we thought was good value

We enjoyed this place and it was great for our son, who's 8, to get a better understanding of Iceland; however, it was a tad pricy. The lady who helped us was fantastic!! So sweet and helpful was she. Two highlights are that you get audio tour with the price & afterwards the dressing in Viking gear was great fun for the whole family.It is a bit out of the way rather a bit of a walk if you aren't already in City center. Fun, though.
