Such a fun experience! It’s a great introduction to the history of Solvang and a way to see much more than you would exploring on your own. Staff were friendly and the activities worked for a wide range of ages. Would definitely recommend for families

This experience was amazing! Our tour guide Kate did an excellent job at educating the kids without overwhelming them with facts, but rather playing games and making the experience interactive with both the group and the town of Solvang! From learning about the Viking folklore surrounding Solvang, touring the Viking museum, exploring a very cool hidden arcade, and to top it off eating some delicious Ableskivers the experience was an absolute blast for both my kids and I. Will definitely recommend for your next family trip to Solvang!

We had a great tour of Solvang with Vanessa. We learned a enough about Solvang and the area to make us want to plan a return trip. During the tour we tasted offerings from several places around town that were all delicious. This is a great way to start your time in Solvang to learn about the town and where to go for fun and great food. Take the tour!!!
