Reading about a Viking ship isn't going to help you understand the size or craftsmanship of a vessel the same way standing on this reconstruction does. There is a lot of good information in the other displays. We were with small children so didn't listen to the recordings about the gods and goddesses but just looking at the related displays was fun.

After being left disappointed at not being able to get in The Blue Lagoon my family and I decided to visit here. We were met by a friendly guy on reception who explained what's there, entrance fee is reasonable and we spent an interesting hour and a half here. The Viking boat is impressive and there's lots to read and see detailing the Viking explorations and the history of Iceland. Also liked the story of the Norse gods and goddesses upstairs.

We had a morning free before our flight in the afternoon so visited this small museum. It was very well laid put and full of interesting information about the vikings. You can walk on the boat that was sailed to America and there is an audio tour about the Viking Gods. The staff member on site was very helpful and friendly and we spent just over an hour at the museum. There is also a small shop on site and refreshements available. A walk around the harbour is also worthwhile.

We really enjoyed visiting this full size replica Viking boat housed in a building 2 miles south of Keflavik. As a carpenter/joiner I feel like this would have been an amazing project to build, but Leifur Ericsson & his team not only did that, but they then sailed it to Newfoundland, and then on down the Eastern US coast to New York. I take my hat of to them on both the build and the journey! You are also given headphones for a walk through some well made scenes, learning about Viking legends & stories.

I did not spend long at this stop but enjoyed the time I was here, it was worth the stop.The key display is a boat - a replica of a ninth-century Viking ship.The replica was sailed across the Atlantic Ocean in 2000 to celebrate Leifur Ericsson's journey to the New World.Now the boat is on display here - and it's a good display with a lot of information ant the boat set up so that you can climb aboard it and also see it from underneath.There are also other areas of the museum to explore, but I did not check them out.

Víkingaheimar is a modern and interesting museum. The Viking boat is the centrepiece of the museum and it is 23m long, an exact reconstruction of the Viking Age Gokstad longship. You can step aboard and imagine you are sailing as a Viking on the sea.The staff is friendly and hand out to you a headphone and you can listen to the belief in gods and goddesses of Norse mythology and step into a multi media show, learning about aspects of Vikings beliefs.Viking World is a museum well worth visiting.

Great museum and very informative. The full size replica Viking boat that sailed the seas is inside and you can step aboard !There are also displays and artefacts including human bones from 900BC !Pop in and take a look if you can.

The replica ship suspended from the ceiling (and which you can walk into from the second floor) is definitely worth seeing. Very well written exhibit pieces, friendly and informative staff. I'd like to visit again as friends I was with were a little bit rushed. Not a large museum but recommend going when you can spend 2-4 hours if you'd like to take your time reviewing stories, watching narratives, and reading the informative pieces on Viking objects on display. And if you're in a rush, still worth the visit. Small/minor admission fee.
