Reviews for The History Of Science Museum

Quote:-

"We're looking for young recruits willing to brave freezing temperatures, 24 hour darkness, a scary snowmobile ride, camping on ice and life in a stinking penguin colony"

Now I didnt expect me and my family to be whisked away to the North Pole for a £19 family ticket, but I didnt expect it all to be a "set" consisting of a large freezer that you stood in for a few minutes and then passed throught to several other "rooms" one of which contained an old snowmobile that your kids could only sit on, it didnt move or go anywhere, no ride like they promised in the literature... Oh, and the "camping on ice" was a tent pegged out on the carpet (no ice etc). Dont waste your money with this one.
