Abstract
This chapter traces out the sets of practices that effect the creation of masculine subjects and objects in two tourist settings. It is argued that embodied performances in heritage tourist settings help to concretize and stabilize certain male identities. The Highland Games of Scotland and Viking heritage tourism in Scandinavia form the empirical case-study material from which conceptual insights are drawn and further research agendas proposed.
