  Cool little walk through museum with an audio guide. Only took about 25 minutes to walk through, but it was a little boring. The displays were super realistic and not too cheesy. My wife enjoyed dressing up in Viking attire after the tour.

  Fairly small museum with an audio guide. It covers the sagas in only a little more depth than the other museums I'd seen, which was a bit disappointing. The models are probably more interesting for kids/families though!

  I wish I had gone to the Saga Museum at the start of my Iceland trip, as it would have set up a great foundation for the tours and other exhibitions we saw. In the span of 35-45 minutes, you walk through a "haunted-house-type" setup - the figures are superbly life-like and the placards provide historical information. The audioguide that is included as part of entrance fee plays automatically as you walk through (but slightly off-time at some points). Positive: tons of history; there's a cool film about how the museum was created, and the best part of all was the dress up room with real/heavy weapons and clothing like chain mail Negative: if you have already done many tours/museums in Iceland, the content will be old news here; there is no information/presentation on written/oral sagas here Tips: there is a discount with a Reykjavik City Card and also discount for students; prepare to spend about 1-1.5 hrs here

  Très bon musée avec audioguides disponibles en plusieurs langues dont le français. Des personnages très réalistes, un parcours agréable. Possibilité d'essayer des casques et tenues à la fin c'était une bonne surprise. La boutique est plus variée pour des souvenirs plus originaux que ce qu'on trouve partout en ville.

  The history told in the saga museum is interesting but it consists of an audio guide which goes for about 35 minutes. For the price I would expect a little bit more. There surely is a lot more interesting stuff in the Saga of Iceland.
