Private Full Day Guided Tour to Viking Unst

Overview

Viking Unst. A day trip to the Shetland island 'above all others' with resident historian and archaeologist Chris Dyer. Join professional archaeologist and landscape historian Chris Dyer for a day trip from Lerwick to engage with Unst. The island of Unst lies at the crossroads of western Viking migration routes between the North Sea and North Atlantic Ocean and was one of the first landfalls as Norwegian settlers arrived in Britain. Throughout Unst, there are over 60 Viking farmsteads, beautiful beaches, prehistoric standing stones, medieval castles and chapels, a Viking longhouse reconstruction, and spectacular cliffs. Please note- tour duration is subject to change in the event of disruption to inter-island ferries. For this reason, we do not recommend this tour as a shore excursion for cruise ship passengers and are unable to guarantee an on time return.
