Geht so

Die Tour war okay. Einige interessante Infos aber auch Vieles was wir nicht für Wissenswert gehalten haben. Den vollen Preis würde ich nicht bezahlen, mit Discount war es aber ein guter Start um einen Überblick zu bekommen

Great value

Interesting guided tour, and then you’re free to explore the museum at your own pace afterwards - and we got the tickets on here for cheaper than general admission to the museum, so it was brilliant value!

I didn’t know what to expect from the tour but our tour guide was able to give us some great insights into some of the exhibits! Definitely worth going to!
