Entry to the science museum is free, but it's recommended to book a timed ticket to avoid lines. Huge and varied collections, from steam engines to airplanes and cars to medicine and space exploration. Interactive high-tech exhibits. IMAX T theater requires sperate tickets. For children, the playspace 'the garden' in the basement offers fun, sensory experiences.
Fabulous visit to the science museum. Went at 12:30 on a Saturday, I was online booking tickets whilst walking through the door. There was no queue so I ended up buying them there. Lots to see and do, I recommend checking the imax times when you get there and doing a screening of one of their specials (normally 1 hour). Loads of cafes with an array of food and beverages.
Great museum, really interesting space section. Lots of things to see and learn about. I was impressed when I went into the aviation floor as you could go on a walk way and see the planes from a different level, I really enjoyed that. The museum is free to enter, but I recommend booking tickets in advance to skip the queue. Nice little cafe and gift shop. Staff are very friendly and informative. Amenities clean.
Had a really great day at the Science Museum. Loads to see and do for both kids and adults. The interactive exhibits were brilliant and the staff were friendly and helpful too. Everything was well organised and easy to get around. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in London.
London's beautiful Science Museum is located in South Kensingston. It was extremely easy to take the London Underground and make our way there. We booked our tickets in advance. The tickets are free, and you can also add a donation when checking out the complimentary tickets. We were amazed by the various exhibits and the warmth of all the staff. There were school groups also present in the museum, and it added a live and bubbly atmosphere to the place. The gift shop was big and extravagant with many items to choose from. We spent around 2 hours in the museum. We definitely recommend a visit when you're in London.
