My family (mum, two sisters and my daughter) really enjoyed this experience. So much to see and enjoy. The audio guide confused me a bit. I didn’t really know which section was for which area. It took me a while to understand how it worked. The lovely lady did explain it to me but it still caught me off guard. Some of the armour looked the same to me so the pictures would confuse me as well. Other than that we LOVED the whole experience. It was something to do before we had to head back to London on the Eurostar. Thank you for a lovely day at your Museum.

The family was less engaged than I was, so unfortunately, I have to give it a lower rating. I appreciated the history, the displays, but we all definitely made it to NB's tomb. All in all, this is probably better suited for real history buff's, versus a family looking to kill a few hours with an activity.

Great experience! It will take 3+ hours to explore everything. Lots of history and beauty throughout these buildings. You don't need a skip the line deal but definitely buy your tickets for this and all events before you arrive to get in right away. Highly recommend and don't forget all the models on the top floor.
