Draken at Mystic Seaport

Draken is now docked at Mystic Seaport (CT, USA). The ship is not open to the public but can be seen from the quayside. Draken will be covered during the winter months, and there is not much to see; we recommend you visit us during a stopover on one of our future tours.


Mystic Seaport

Mystic Seaport is the leading maritime museum in the US. Founded in 1929, the Museum is home to four US National Historic Landmark vessels, including the Charles W. Morgan, America’s oldest commercial ship and the last wooden whaleship in the world. The Museum’s collection of more than two million artifacts includes more than 500 historic vessels and one of the largest collections of maritime photography in the country. 

 
 
 

The Draken Stopover Experience

During the tours you have the opportunity to take part of the Draken Stopover Experience. Each Draken stopover offers a unique, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for visitors to relive history in a way never before experienced.

We offer guests the opportunity to not only marvel at this stunning Viking ship – but also to interact with the crew while they share their personal experiences of the thrill, fear and exhilaration felt from having relived one of the world’s most mythological sea voyages – the first transatlantic crossing and the Viking discovery of the New World, more than a thousand years ago.

By sharing this magnificent story, the Draken will inspire, educate and entertain local communities, offering an enriching experience, appealing to families and modern-day explorers alike.
