While the main part of the attraction does involve travelling in a cart 
through the reconstructed area, it moves fairly slowly.  The fun stuff comes 
after you get out of the cart - the reconstructed (complete with wax figures 
of the scientists) labs showing how conservation etc is done, and the museum 
of finds, where you can wander and study as long as you wish.  When my 
husband and I were there two years ago, there was a costumed docent walking 
about doing nalbinding, and another setting up to begin striking coins.  We 
didn't consider it either over-rated or frustrating; we loved it.  And 
neither of us does Viking persona.
