The Natural History Museum always reminds me of found childhood memories when i went there for a school trip aww
No matter how big i get, the Natural Museum would never fail to amaze me.
Great venue really sad I never got tickets for the da vinci show if any one has any please let me know.
Great art viewing of Leonardo Da Vinci, exclusive paintings. Huge crowds for a very special night. Great commentary.
The architecture is amazing and there’s so much to see. I like wandering around this museum at quiet times when there’s not such a huge crowd. It has an amazing effect on children too. There’s something for everyone. Definitely avoid weekends if you can, and to eat there. The food is far too expensive for what it is.
Took the kids (teenagers) and they really enjoyed revisiting the museum after a few years. Started with morning ice-skating and the rink was great and the staff helpful and gave my son and his friend a few tips on cool moves. Into the museum, and they already wanted to revisit the dinosaurs and see the mechanical TRex, since it is free we could go after a few hours when they had enough and got hungry. However, I had also booked up the Wildlife Photographer show and it was excellent, we all enjoyed the amazing pix, I will never forget some of the wildernesses shown. Family favourite museum.
A must to visit when in London but queues can be long and I used the side entrance which was much quicker. Could spend hours getting lost in all the wonderful exhibits.
Fantastic Museum, esp for young people
with loads of interractive stuff to help
them learn. Designed by a young Alfred
Waterhouse in 1873 having taken over from
Fowke who had died (one of the many architects of the V&A next door)
It houses the largest dinosaurs remains in the world & has a briliant, new, Darwin section Having said its for yp, I revel in the yearly National Geographic Photographic Award exhibition held here AND the events held in the forecourt : The London Fashion Week & the ice skating which is lovely at night (see my picture)
I love the architecture, if you look closely you can see carved animals and flora and fauna…it’s just stunning.
I especially like the free educational lectures and seminars and it’s great for little ones – I dare anyone not to be amazed by the full sized replica of the blue whale.
For a fun, out of ordinary date, I went to the museum and had a great time. I’ve been there many times and always enjoyed myself. So if you’re into science and discovery and learning, this is a great place to spend an afternoon.
This museum is really attractive ! You can go on a trip into the earth, meet dinosaurs, learn about human body or fauna and flora …
If you’re going to London, just have a look !

Very impressed. Never been to NHM before and found it well laid out, informative, and entertaining. Visitors of all ages seemed to enjoy it, and no queues and no admission fees show that London doesn’t HAVE to be an expensive tourist trap.
This place is a great day out for all the family – and it’s free!! I took my parents here while they were visiting me and my dad loved it, especially the creepy crawlies and dinosaur bones. There’s loads of interactive stuff for children to do which keeps them interested. It does get really busy, and the cafe is over priced but you’ve got to expect that, and with free admission you can’t really complain!
My favorite Museum in London ! The Dino area is amazing !
Absolutely a brilliant day out - but you will not see everything in a day so plan what you want to do and go back again another day to do the rest , but trust me you will want to go back

One of the best museums I have ever been, I took my 2' years old nephew to there on his birthday & he enjoyed there so much that when I asked him to lets go home he refused & stayed there for all day. This museum have big dinos & whales, and loads of other animals too, ofcourse not alive 'cuz it's not a zoo :) the best part of the museum is Mechanical moving Dinosaur.

One thing to say... If there's a queue at the main entrance, go to the side entrance opposite the V&A. No waiting, straight in every time!!
Absolutely fantastic. Something for everyone. (Although having said that probably not the best place to take a buggy/pram.) Love the bit with the velociraptors!
Lovely educational museum but try to avoid the restaurant at all costs...
Outstanding value for money. Great day out. Pro's so much to see and not enough time to see it. Cons, cafe is expensive and the que in the morning is too long. Howver it is well worth the wait so don't miss it if you do arrive in London.
