Science Museum (London) Reviews

Science museum (London)- An indulging must see attraction ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- I used to love science when I was in school.

The Science museum is in South Kensington, (nearest tube South Ken on the Picadilly line). It is free to enter and you can easily spend a whole afternoon here. I went in August during school holidays (without kids) and it was busy but bearable. There is so much to see and do here , for both adults and children. The Space section is one ...  Read the complete review

The Science Museum is located in close proximity to the V&A Museum and the Natural History Museum. Access is direct from South Kensington tube station via an underground pathway, so you and the family are safe from traffic. On entering the museum, you see enormous steam engines, which is quite exciting for any child or engineer. There are ...  Read the complete review

After delaying for many weeks, due to train strikes in my area and other things, I finally got to visit the London Science Museum yesterday. I have vague memories of going there as a child for a school trip but couldn't really remember any details, and I'm sure it had changed a lot anyhow. The best thing about the museum is its price, ...  Read the complete review

The Science Museum is situated on Exhibition Road, London close to the South Kensington Tube Station. You can reach the museum by following the subway from the tube station which brings you up just next to the entrance to the museum. The museum has over 300,000 items and is spread out over 7 floors although some floors are much larger ...  Read the complete review

We decided to have a post New Year trip to the science museum recently as we hadn't been for a couple of years and thought we would catch up. We only had an afternoon to spare - as we had visted Ripleys in the morning. As the museum is free now we thought this would be a good way to balance up the cost of the morning. We hadn't had time ...  Read the complete review

Well the good old British weather managed to make a significant dent into my half term break plans, the planned trip to Drayton Manor Park was postponed until the summer, both horse riding days were wet and the picnic rug remained rolled up and dry under the stairs, so in desperation we ventured off to London for some indoor stimulation at the ...  Read the complete review

I spend a lot of time in the London Science Museum, partly because it is now free to enter, and partly because I have a great love of all the sciences. Few places excite me as much as the thrill of a trip to the Science Museum. The museum is also open seven days a week between 10am and 6pm, which means it is possible to fit in visits around ...  Read the complete review

NAME OF COMPANY: Science Museum, London. BACKGROUND: Robert has been on at me for ages to take him to the Science Museum in London, ever since he saw an advert for a James Bond exhibition there and I finally managed it in December 2004. Robert likes to visit museums that have hands on exhibits so I knew that the ...  Read the complete review

On one rainy soggy London day I happened to be in the area of the Science Museum in London. Since it is now completely free to enter (thank you! London) my other half and I went in to take a look around. It is a decision that I'll never regret. The science museum is located close to the South Kensington underground (about a 5 minute ...  Read the complete review

Feeling a little self-indulgent, I offered to take my eldest daughter to the Science Museum in London. She was desperately excited, and so was I, in a regression-type way. I hadn't stepped foot inside the place since my mother took me when I was about the same age as 7 year old Alexandra, and I was curious to see if it would still ...  Read the complete review

Science at school was portrayed as a boring, dangerous and a time for drawing pictures on the damaged wooden desks. I wasn't expecting much, but just as you enter, the warm and friendly atmosphere greets you like a, well, nice greeting thing. Although totally packed with people, the games, activities and computer simulations threw out the ...  Read the complete review

I loved it! I visited as an adult and was really very surprised that I enjoyed it so much. It is almost totally interactive so for kids of all ages, it is perfect. There are some fantastic displays that can be manipulated by even the littlest of hands (there is one in the basement that invites you to flush something brown and suspicious ...  Read the complete review

I am one of those people who struggled their way through science lessons at school so I wasn't expecting to enjoy my day out at the Science Museum. I have to admit that I was completely hooked by the end of the day though. The Science Museum achieves the goals that all museums should aim for. It makes the subject easy to understand for ...  Read the complete review

As a child I was always eager to go the Science Museum. Recently I had the opportunity to take my children and some friend to visit. Transport is good. The underground station has a tunnel direct to the Museums and there are a quite a few in the vicinity, its a bit of a walk for young ones but safe. Entry for children under ...  Read the complete review

I'm lucky in that I live near Heathrow Airport and so Central London is easily accessible for me. But even if you live outside the south east if you're in London with your kids you should definitely go to the Science Museum. My children are aged five and three and they are mad on Lego, anything you can build with, but especially ...  Read the complete review

It is great for adults too, but there is a lot of entertainment value for children -- more than you can manage in a day. One thing to be aware of is that there are special sections that are particular sections that are geared to particular ages (its useful to know this at the beginning and not just near the end): - Basement for ...  Read the complete review

I remember as a child always wanting to go to the Natural History Museum far more than here, but have in the past few years started visiting both a lot more if I'm in the area during the day -entry is free if you go from 5 til 6. As with the other main London museums, there's too much here to see in one trip, but this is really a benefit ...  Read the complete review
