Family trip to Keflavik with children. Ideas on where to go with your child

Little citizens will certainly appreciate The Zoological Viking Home farm. Here you can plunge into the life of the local residents' ancestors and look at animals such as cows, goats, rabbits, chickens - that is, all those who once helped Scandinavian soldiers survive in ancient times. The mini-zoo is located in a Viking-style center. Thus, nearby are the Viking World Museum and Viking World Campsite where you can fully experience the atmosphere of touching the history.
As for the above-mentioned museum, it is worth noting that here you can see stone statues of the Vikings and a star attraction - the mighty Viking ship.

The museum offers a cinema hall where films about Erickson are shown, as well as unrivaled views of the bay. Copyright www.orangesmile.com
