You can also be expected to be fleeced in the gift shop on the way out for ethically sourced, artisan produced, recyclable, genuine reproduction, child friendly, replica viking weaponry.
Or really shit wooden swords, if you prefer.
Also did I mention the smell? They’ve had a team of “experts” recreate the genuine scent of viking era York in all it’s glory, which is reproduced using chemicals and is pumped into the atmosphere throughout your “experience”.
Turns out that, a long time ago, York smelled quite strongly of shite.
Who’da thunk it? 😉
…other than that it’s quite good.
