Merijn BApril 28, 2014Don't try the cafeteria's pizza. It's like trying to chew through cardboard glued to a sponge.
Konstantinos TsompanellisJanuary 24, 2012Check..."who am I" exhibition... Great and fun , interactive tricks ground...
David SayedSeptember 18, 2011While they close at 6, they really start kicking you out in no uncertain terms starting at 5.30. I even got kicked out of the shop at 5.45. No tourist £s for you! :-p
Simon WillisonJanuary 14, 2012One for our American friends... George Washington's Denture (5th floor, Dentistry 123)
Jonno SouthamFebruary 1, 2014Don't bother coming on a Saturday. Its packed and your child will only be disappointed when they don't get in to the attractions.
- p dubyaApril 18, 2011Find the suspension bridge made of glass. Only 30ft up! Supported by 372 thin cables.
BirgerApril 23, 2011Do NOT get tickets for the 4D experience. The movements are not in sync with the images and sound.
Go to the Listening Post on the first floor - very neat art exhibit about online communications
