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.
