Our beautiful, full-sized&nbsp; 78 foot long "VIKING" was based on a 1000 year old buried ship. Hand built in Norway in 1893, she was sailed non-stop across the entire stormy North Atlantic by a hardy crew of 12 adventurers to become a star attraction of Chicago's 1893 World's Columbian Exposition.Hear her exciting story, admire her dramatic beauty, and learn the secrets of the ancient Viking shipbuilders from our friendly and knowledgeable tour guides. No reservations or tickets are needed. Tours begin every 15 minutes, and are approximately 45 minutes long. Self-guide optional for families with small children. Enjoy our hands-on displays of authentic replica Viking tools, cookware, weapons and jewelry. Watch our display of rare period images. And enjoy the selection of high quality and reasonably priced Viking themed items from our gift shop.&nbsp; Tours begin at 10:00 AM. Last tour begins at 3:45 PM. Still only $7 for adults, $4 teens 13-17, and 12 and under FREE. Note-the ship is in a gravel floored maintenance space. No flush toilets on site
