The Viking Splash Tour is great for families and stressed out people who just want an excuse to shout at strangers.
Many of us have seen the yellow bus full to the brim with people wearing tacky Viking helmets and giving unexpected warrior-like roars. We’ve gotten so used to them that we usually ignore them. However, after being Vikings for a day, we might look up from our busy walk and smile fondly at those horned helmets.
Our tour started at 4pm on Stephen’s Green when our tour guide, a man dressed in a tunic and leather wristbands, came on board with a dramatic flair. He told us to forget all about which part of Ireland (or the world) we came from - we were to be Vikings for the day.
