Detailed itinerary

The Dokken Museum is a must. It provides an insight into the lives of locals centuries ago, when the first houses were yet to be built, combined with the actual day to day life. You can go on a guided tour to hear the tales of the herring era and peer into locked rooms of a charming little boathouse. The museum boasts several buildings, including a herring saltery, a colonial shop, and a barrel workshop. You can also see an extensive boat display and a detailed photo exhibition in the boathouse building. The museum is open during the summer, but in the winter only the courtyard remains open for visitors. Please confirm the opening days and hours of the museum on the day of your transfer.
The stop is for 2 hours. The rest of the time is for transportation.
