    My husband and I really enjoyed the museum! It was so cool to see all of the historical artifacts, turf houses, etc. at this museum. We could have spent the whole day here! There's so much to look at and you can actually go into the old houses, which was really neat. We definitely recommend coming to this museum if you are in the area!! The tickets are inexpensive and you get a wonderful sense of Icelandic history.

    This little place had a very interesting story inside and a few little grass houses outside to explore. Make sure to come and see it when you go see the falls. Full sized boat is a must see

    Museum is closing, private family ownership, wants to spend more time with their farming. Hope someone takes over for them because this is an excellent historical place.

    Everyone should stop here, the Museum was awesome, the turf village and other buildings were so unique and well cared for, and a great opportunity to see what life may have been like. Also the lunch was delicious and the price was good too.

    Masses of artifacts but lacking explanation. Could benefit from a more guided experience

    They have some interesting things, but I did not feel life there was a narrative. Just looking at things is not enough for the price.

    I could have spent more time here. It gave us a peak into Icelandic culture and history.

    The prices seemed a little high for what seemed like a self guided tour. What we saw from the parking lot was nice.

    There are really three museums here. The museum of transportation has some vehicles, communication equipment, and an interesting display on early hydroelectric power generation in rural Iceland. The folklore museum has a collection of interesting artifacts from rural life in Iceland. There is also a collection of structures that show both the earliest homes built by the settlers, and some notable wooden structures built later. I highly recommend spending an hour or two here.

    It's like stepping back in time. It shows the harshest of lives they lived back then. Very interesting place

    I truly wish we had had more time to visit this museum. They have an outstanding collection of artifacts that tell the history of Iceland. There is a good souvenir shop here as well.
