Medieval week in Visby, Gotland provides an exuberant experience which contrasts with the more low key, tranquil Scandinavian holiday. We felt like we had stepped back in time as we got off the ferry into this walled, medieval city to join the jesters, jugglers and jousters, the musicians, the market stall holders and the multitudes of costumed visitors. When you have had enough of the festival, there's plenty to do in the rest of the island, which has an old fashioned charm.
