The highlight was the dress up at the end. Audio tour was enough, exhibits interesting. My tween and young teen really enjoyed the lifelike exhibits.

Musée très intéressant pour en savoir un peu plus sur l’histoire de l’Islande et sa « construction ». L’on se rend là bas plus pour s’instruire que pour profiter de jolis décors. Toutefois les personnages sont très bien faits.

The museum is worth the time and nominal entry fee. It's really very nicely done. Make sure to view the film in the lobby afterwards to see how the characters were created.
