Alexandra, our tour guide, was great and kept the children engaged for the duration of our time. She highlighted all important parts of the museum and the kids loved every second of it.

Excellent museum for children, the evolution of species, as well as the origin of the planets, are very interesting. In August the museum is quite full

We booked this private tour for our 8 and 6 year grandsons. One of them is fascinated with dinosaurs. Aaron was amazing. Loved him !!! He was fun, engaging with the boys and kept their interest for most of the 2.5 hrs. He took breaks if they needed it. He was passionate and the adults even learned a lot. Highly recommend this tour

Our tour Guide Chris was truly excellent. Kept the kids, particularly our 7 yr old son, fully engaged and did not seem to mind the more than occasional interrupting question. Kids' review: "five stars and 👍👍👍👍👍"
