Itinerary
- 1The Science Museum London probably one of the best science theme museums all over the world. The Science Museum attracts more than 3.3 million people every year. Therefore, it is proudly now Europe's most visited science and technology museum. The museum is located in South Kensington and can be traced all the way back to 1857 when the South Kensington Museum opened at what is now the Victoria & Albert Museum. The decision to move the science and engineering collections of the V&A Museum to a separate location in 1909 meant the Science Museum was naturally born. Today the Museum accommodates more than 300,000 objects on its seven floors. All those objects have been carefully categorized by different topics such as electricity, nuclear power, technology, medicine, photography, food, transportation, and much more. Our tour will start from the top floor. In level 3, from mankind’s earliest dreams of flight, through to the Wright brothers and early adventurers, to the jumbo jet and the wide-body aeroplanes of today, you will discover the history of flight experiencing an amazing HD 3D flight simulator as well as hair rising live science shows (if available during the time of the visit) to help you understand the science and maths that build our world. You can also try the Space Descent VR to experience the breathtaking 400 km journey to the earth surface. In Level 2 you will visit some current exhibitions, The Clockmakers' Museum with its unique collection from the present day. Next is Mathematics, The Winton Gallery where you can explore how mathematics is connected to our daily lives. Proceeding to Information Age where we will discover 200 years of innovation in information and communication technology and how it has significantly changed our lives from the first wireless transatlantic communication to the dawn of digital HDTV. Time to explore our unique and fragile atmosphere that contains an interactive gallery related to the story of the Earth’s changing climate from the past to today. Once you reach Level 1, you will examine the Challenge of Materials that transforms our world, who am I where you can explore how genetic codes can create someone’s identity. Level 1 will soon host an extensive Medicine Collection. This will be embedded in our Science Museum Tour when it is finished. Next level is zero, ground level, maybe the best level of the museum. Here you will explore making the Modern World that contains the most iconic objects from Apollo 10 to the first Apple computer, Energy Hall where you will discover steam-propelled British industry and technology. Do you wish to see a real moon rock? If yes, follow the guide leading you to immaculate Exploring Space Gallery where you can also observe the real satellites and rockets. In level Zero you will also discover Pattern Pod if your group has young kids, Tomorrow’s World, IMAX 3D Theatre that is considered one of the largest screens throughout the U.K. Final touch for this level would be Legend of Apollo, closer approach on US’s Apollo mission to the Moon in museum’s 3D motion effects theatre. It’s a must-do activity in the Science Museum. For the young members of your Group, we will invite them to the Garden where they can enjoy while playing their way through sound, light, water and construction. Here they will learn how to observe, explore and draw conclusions whilst playing with their friends. There is also a play area in the basement. Lastly, The Secret Life of the Home gallery would be the gallery where the young generation will discover the evaluation of daily household objects.

- sarahaX1095CX0 contributionsAstonishing view of the stadiumNice experience there. I went with my partner and my best friend. Wendy, tour advisor took us through the entire stadium including the players changing room, conference room and many more.Written 28 September 2024
- Simonallen540 contributionsWest Ham TourI’m a Villa fan and I throughly enjoyed the tour. Simon was our tour guide and he was excellent all round. Would definitely recommend the tour if your ever in London. Up the VillaWritten 23 September 2024
- stephenaV7531NV0 contributionsBirthday treatThe tour i was told was over an hour it was less .the guild was good but there is not much to see i felt robbed. I've done loads of tours and this one was very poor having pictures of players on the wall don't make the tour. Last year I did wolves ground which they had loads of memories from there museum and players old kits and trophy s .but nothing like it at west ham. I was told so many times it's not our ground but you would have fought they had more stuff to seeWritten 16 September 2024
- PW47350 contributionsA great start to the dayWe took the match day tour. Tom our tour guide was great. Funny and a brain full of facts. Explained everything with loads of opportunities for photo's. Free entry afterwards to the museum is a nice touchWritten 17 August 2024
- russellsT8702GM0 contributionsToo Professionalism and Quality ExperienceI was astonished at how much was available to us to see and learn and experience! The guide was knowledgeable and an exceptional communicator. We were all rapt. It stands out as one of the memorable moments of a hammer-for-life! I’m nearly 60 and this day was part of my bucket list-coming from the days of the Boleyn, I really needed this and I recommend it to all fans. My family are not all West Ham fans and they really enjoyed it as well!! One of my cousins joked, “don’t bring them back as hammers”.Written 3 August 2024
- robertsH8493NI0 contributionsPrepare for chaos, enjoy the tourExtremely disorganized at the start. Bus was late. Guide did not know where to have people wait. Once the correct bus arrived and was identified as such, it was a mad rush for people to get on. Some had to sit inside a windowed area, while others got the open air part. All of that said, once the guide began his description of the sites and their history, it was very enjoyable. He was very knowledgeable and had plenty to say. All in all, we enjoyed the experience, and London after dark is a gorgeous thing.Written 30 July 2024
- Sasha F0 contributionsDecent tourDecent day out as you get to spend time at West Ham with football legends, go into the teams changing rooms and get a photo included at the end. Seeing the stadium completely empty is very strange. Sitting in the managers chair was good and there are loads of opportunities for questions throughout. I really enjoyed myself though the process for additional photos is extortionate.Written 14 July 2024
- Arthur B0 contributionsChampVery positive response from your side to work on this issue so please let me know to proceed further on this week and get ready for service and you will also need to check with your decisionWritten 12 July 2024
- B6650TGgp0 contributionsAvoid if you can!Beware! I am a West Ham supporter of Greek Origin, so when Olympiacos came to town last November, I jumped at the opportunity to purchase tickets and go and see the game. I purchased two tickets for me and my wife, paying a total of £ 152. Shortly afterwards, I got an email from West Ham to say that my tickets had been 'blocked' until I could prove that I am a West Ham fan. Not sure how you can prove that you are a fan of a particular club, they asked if I had a West Ham shirt or scarf. The answer was not to both, I am 70 years old and would not walk around with a West Ham shirt or scarf. As it turned out, the club told me that I would not be able to get admission to the game, although I had two valid tickets. I asked for a refund and was told that this was out of the question. So, I have paid £ 152 for nothing, I think it is fair to say that I have been cheated by West Ham United. Never again. Supporters please be aware how they treat you!Written 28 April 2024
- BarMc0 contributionsChelsea Stadium AmazingExcellent tour of Museum and Stadium complete behind the scenes look about. all aspects explained is great engaging details to keep the interest . Plenty of time for photos didn't feel like you were being rushed through the process.Written 24 April 2024
- valeriu760 contributionsThe best private hire in LondonWe booked a transfer to and from Gatwick Airport to W13 through Tourope UK. We were very pleased with the service received. The cars arrived on time, the drivers were polite and helpful, the cars were clean and comfortable. They even had water bottles and sweets. We booked an MPV for a family of 5 and were upgraded to a minibus. I used and was often disappointed with London private hires, so it was a Godsend moment to discover Tourope UK. Highly recommend this company. Many thanks to Cory for the support and attention.Written 20 April 2024
- CarliAndMase0 contributionsA football fans dream!My son is a crazy Chelsea fan and he absolutely loved every minute of this tour, as did I. We did the VIP tour with Dave as our guide and he was amazing. Very knowledgeable and informative as well as being a lovely fellow. Highly recommend this tour and if you can request Dave, you will not be disappointed!Written 20 January 2024
- CJ03MEL0 contributionsGreat experience at the Emirates.It was such an interesting and amazing experience as a late Christmas present from my grandparents (whom my grandfather is a very big Arsenal fan). We did the Legend Tour with Perry Groves. We managed to touch the pitch, which is very rare. The tour took us though the dressing rooms, tunnel, dugouts, car park and even the very interesting and unique museum. There was some great photo taking opportunities throughout the experience. The even have their own coin mangle machine, which was an added bonus. This is the first stadium tour I have done, and it’s left me wanting to visit more!Written 8 January 2024
- graceboyd0 contributionsamazingThe tour was amazing, Raymond and Roy were out tour guides and they were so laid back, informative and easy to talk to. they took us all around the stadium and gave us some fun facts and memories of stamford bridge.Written 18 December 2023
- 381jaydeb0 contributionsFabulousThanks to a brilliant tour by Luis, the Wembley tour was exciting and fun. Memorabilia, changing rooms, and a well executed history lesson left me with a sense of appreciation of all that the stadium means. Highly recommend.Written 27 November 2023
