RED Sightseeing Stockholm bus + Winterse Vaartocht + Viking Museum

Excelente opcion para recorrer el casco antiguo de Estocolmo.

Well Worth the Visit

This was a fascinating museum crammed full of everything Viking: history, culture, exhibits, etc. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in pre-Christian Sweden. At he end of the day, once Sweden became Catholic the Vikings either assimilated or left to continue their pagan ways in the Baltics. Very interesting history.

Fun visit with family

We visited on a rainy day during school vacation period so they had some extra kids activities which were nice. The guided tour was disappointing. Although the staff person was personable and had excellent English it was odd because we just stood around a globe the entire time and listened to historical information and did not move around the museum. The information was interesting but kids got bored and were eager to move and it was clear that elderly people wanted a seat. I would not rush to arrive to attend a tour. Museum is conveniently located near tram stop. The ride was a highlight.

Great museum

Had a really enjoyable visit here. The museum doesn't have much in terms of artifacts however it is filled with lots of interesting information about the Vikings and gives you a real appreciation for how they lived. There is a ride, which is part of the visit and tells the story of a Viking family, which is great for kids. There is also a restaurant and shop onsite too.

Great for all the family

Very enjoyable museum experience. In a lovely location in Stockholm harbour area, Explains a lot about the culture and way of life for Vikings, Finished off with a ride through a story of a Viking family and some of their troubles and successes. East access from central station by tram number 7.

Ett museet värd att besöka

En fantastisk upplevelse! Information är mycket bra och lätt tillgängligt. Personalen är trevlig och väl insatt. Restaurangen är mycket fint med trevlig och kunnig personal och god mat och dryck.

Atmosfera vichinga

Struttura organizzata per farti sentire nel mondo vichingo attraverso percorsi dedicati a tema con cartellonistica, salette rappresentative e accessori. Adatto a tutte le età, trova poi sfogo nello shop annesso con simpatiche proposte.

Very Informative!

Great museum which ended up being far more than we'd expected. Very informative and with a free ride at the end taking you through the travels and adventures of an imagined viking.

Geschichte hautnah

Ein kleines, aber feines Museum zum Thema Wikinger. Detailliert und historisch sehr genau. Spannend ist auch die Fahrt durch die Zeit

Great for the kids and history lesson for all

Viking museum interesting to see and explore, not a big museum so you can easily do in an hour, not far from Vasa Musuem best to do both on same day. tour guide good and explained the history of the Vikings, lots of artifacts and interactive gadgets to keep the kids happy and occupied. Glad I visited as it wasn't on my list of things to do in Stockholm.

Excellent authentic museum, underrated

This museum consists of both exhibition and adventure ride (ride is about a viking that went from Swedish soil to fight in Constantinople), both are amazing and authentic. There is a guided tour once per hour and lasts around 30-40 minutes, there can be heard many interesting historic facts about viking culture. Adventure ride in the cellar takes about 11 minutes and ends with an epic viking music theme. Everyone can take a picture with a shield, spear and helmet in the first room around the globe as a real viking. On the end, there are shop and restaurant where mead is served. Everyone who loves viking culture or is interested in it, will find this museum really amazing as this is not only tradition in this Scandinavian part of the world, it is a way of life.

Interesting museum with diorama ride

The Viking Museum has good displays and good English signage. There is a guide in Viking costume. The diorama ride which tells of the life in a Viking family was interesting.

Esperienza stupenda

Esperienza unica, personale davvero molto educato e diaponibile. Consigliamo anche l'area ristorante, dove una chef, Irina, ci ha fatto innamorare del suo modo di cucinare. Nostro figlio, italiano, si è letteralmente divorato il piatto di pasta che Irina ha cucinato. Davvero, complimenti!!

Bonne expérience

La visite était très bien, tous les détails étaient bien fait. La visite en mini voiturette d'une exposition sur place était très instructif sur l'histoire.

Surprisingly good!

This was surprisingly good. There was a lot of good information and actors going around. To end the museum, there was a story-telling ride about the life of a Viking family. Worth the visit if you have time.

Museo immersivo

Museo molto interessante, con audio guida direttamente sul cellulare anche in lingua italiana, fantastica l'esperienza immersiva della storia di una famiglia vichinga.

Next to Vasa Museum and Worth a Visit if you are interested in Vikings

We had a two week vacation through Scandinavia. This was the only real Viking Museum we saw and found it very useful to understand Viking history, culture and impact in Europe. It was a complete history and well supported with explanations and actual artifacts. A guide went through our visit through the exhibits and explained things to an level not excessive but sufficient. There is a "ride" at the end through exhibits as you find in amusement parks or visitors centers, taking you from display to display. A nice ending to the visit. The museum shop deserves a mention, we generally don't buy things at them but found several things there that we fancied. The museum staff from entry to departure are very helpful and welcoming. If you visit Vasa, suggest you go next door to this one too.

unique experience

The first museum that we visited on the island . The staff wears period clothes. There are a lot of Viking items on display and there is a ride which takes you through the journey of a Viking. The ride was a nice surprise and it was the best part of the visit. The museum has also a nice restaurant and a shop.

Great experience on a school trip.

We went to visit the museum during a school trip with 56 teenagers and they all loved their expérience. Thé two guides were great and made them discover the vikings' life. And the train to finish the tour is really well done and interesting.

VIKING MUSEUM

Great experience specialy the ride with the dioramas. The visitor can see the history of Europe along with the history and journeys of the Vikings.

Interesting

A beautiful museum with a great history of the Vikings! Search for the guided tours inside in order to learn more about them! The highlight was the train tour at the end of the museum!

Historia som berättas på ett fängslande sätt

Roligt och lärorikt. Särskillt åkturen! Barnen testade 5 gånger och skulle gärna åkt mer. Mängder av intressanta fakta både för stor eller liten besökare.

Interesting little museum with a fun ride

The main part of the museum was fairly interesting, though we wandered through it quite quickly. Thought the ride brought what it was like to be a Viking to life a little bit, by providing a story. It might not be for everyone but we enjoyed it and left with a better understanding of Viking life.

Lovely visit.

Great museum with artifacts and context. The museum is close to the Vasa museum so we were able to visit both. They have real axes, coins and swords. They also have a reconstruction of a Viking person who was unearthed some years ago.

Fun for kids

This would be a fun museum for families snd kids. Lots of fun displays and artifacts. I would have liked more history content other than the one timeline board, but we certainly got a good idea of how the Vikings lived and loved.

Gone a viking

The staff were extremely helpful. The tour guide was really insightful and gave some really good history of the vikings. The museum itself was really good as was the little ride at the end. The food in the restaurant was good

Great fun Viking tour

Loved this very informative Viking museum. The actual museum is small compared to others, but packed with lots of information and interactive experiences. A lot of negative comments say it’s overpriced but I disagree. It’s a well put together and maintained exhibition that deserves what it asks. We managed to catch the English’s tour which, I admit, did drag on so we wondered off and watched the videos instead. Staff were friendly and helpful. The ride at the end was a cool touch as well.

History

It was a great and informative museum with a cool ride at the end that takes you on a journey through time. Staff were great. Great look into the Vikings lives.

Nice museum

Very nice place and location with an excellent restaurant that seems like a 5 stars restaurant rather than museum food. Unfortunately, a little bit small, hence the reason of not giving the maximum of points

Plutôt sympa

Tout comme le vasa, le viking est un musée très bien fait et pédagogique. Interactivité et tradition s’entremêlent pour un résultat ludique. Le billet s’achète par le net, qui est plutôt pratique et la circulation dans le musée est fluide. Au sous sol, un « petit »train vous raconte l’histoire d’une famille viking durant 10 min dans un nombre important de langue Très cool

Swedish secret

The museum is not big. What puzzled me was that the guide didn’t say anything about Kievan Rus, I’m not even talking about Bulgaria on the Volga. The text that mentioned both was only on one place. This is very strange, because the vikings from Sweden sailed to the east (the Danish ones to England and Normandy, and the Norwegian ones to Scotland, Greenland and Ireland). I was shocked. Every other country on the place of Sweden will be very proud... They gave the initial statehood of the Kievian Rus and its successor states - Ukraine, Russia and Belarus. I have no words.

Weekend at Stockholm

We were in Stockholm that day, and we wanted to visit the Viking museum, at the start the staff welcomed us very nicely, the museum is interesting, a bit of history, etc. Particular attention is paid to the "roller coster" who tells the story while riding. I recommend it to everyone ;)

Good but not brilliant

Situated near the Vasa museum, the Viking museum provides a history of the Vikings, concentrating on those from Sweden. There are talks in several languages with those giving the tour in Viking clothes. There is a good interactive ride in the basement. Overall good but not brilliant

Sympatique

Un musée fort sympatique, agréable avec laudioguide. De belle explication et intéressant pour les enfants également. Petit circuit en navette avec belle histoire et narration original.

Toppendag med barnbarnen!

Barnbarnens favorit, toppenbra! Mkt duktiga o trevliga guider, som verkligen lyssnade på barnen och gav mkt fina svar. Sagotåget en favorit både för vuxna och barn. God lunch.

Imperdibile

Il museo è interessantissimo e fatto benissimo! Ti accoglie una guida in costume che ti accompagna narrando in modo molto gradevole storia e leggenda dei Vikinghi

Una visita magnífica

Una experiencia única para conocer la historia de los vikingos, sus orígenes, leyendas,... Además, aparecen referencias a las distintas series y películas actuales donde quedan reflejados. También, hay una actividad interactiva que incluye un paseo en un vagón con distintas paradas en las que, con figuras, música y una voz en off, se cuenta la leyenda sobre dichos personajes.
