Feel like a true Estonian Viking! We are going to learn how to throw axes, knives and other kinds of weapons, how to shoot from bow and cross-bow, and have a lot of fun during our special workshop in Tallinn! Real professional Estonian Vikings of the 21st century will be our shooting instructors. We will get to know about life and traditions of Vikings, remember the famous episodes from their military expeditions, and talk about the world of Viking gods. More than a thousand years have passed, but up to now people at the Baltic coast have kept the art of throwing axes and knives, spears, as well as bow and crossbow shooting. They are quite good even at target throwing with nails and sows, and as for women – they can manage with a rolling pin or a frying pan right from the kitchen! Do you think you cannot do it? Oh yes you can! Vikings started from learning how to do it, too. And a little secret is – girls are usually better at it)

We had the BEST time!
We had a phenomenal time with Arthur and Neil at the Viking Village (6 adults & a 3-year old). Arthur picked us up from the cruise port and gave us the background on Estonian history on our way to the Village - very helpful! We had a few minutes to explore the village (so cool) when we got there then it was off to learn long bow, axe throwing, and cross bows with Neil - super knowledgeable and gave us all sorts of pointers to improve our skills. We had about 2 hours in the village before grabbing a quick beer then heading back to the old town in Tallinn to round out our day. We highly recommend this experience! It was tough for the 3-year old, but she was able to try everything with some help. Beware, you competitiveness may come out to play! All great fun. This totally beats another long bus or walking tour cruise excursion around a port of call. Get out into the country!

True Viking day: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tallinn.
How much does True Viking day cost?
+
Prices start at $148 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tallinn usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does True Viking day take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tallinn is not rushed.
Is True Viking day worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tallinn, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule True Viking day?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is True Viking day suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book True Viking day?
+
Around 0 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tallinn can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tallinn and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does True Viking day start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tallinn within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tallinn?
+
On Outty we rank every Tallinn experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Guided Old Town Tallinn Historical Walking Tour, Lahemaa National Park Day Trip, Day Trip to Lahemaa National Park. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tallinn?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tallinn?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in True Viking day?
+
Included: Viking village rent; In-vehicle air conditioning; bow, crossbow, axes, knives; and professional instructor. Not included: Lunch; and Tea and coffee. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does True Viking day include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 91 listed pickup locations in and around Tallinn. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is True Viking day offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for True Viking day?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is True Viking day wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Wheelchair accessible; Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and All areas and surfaces are wheelchair accessible. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
