Skip the indoor galleries and head straight for the open-air village ferry. You will wander through authentic 17th-century smokehouses and watch blacksmiths work in real time. Grab the smoked eel near the harbor—it is the only snack that actually matters here. Avoid mid-week school field trips to keep your sanity. Budget three hours total. If you crave deep context, the private Golden Age tour is pricey but cuts the chaos, so spend your money wisely.
