Entrada al Real Observatorio Greenwich y Prime Meridian Londres

Really not worth the entry fee, prime meridian and the telescope were cool but thats about it

Use the buy one get one free tickets if you travelled to London by train. The audio tour is via your phone so don’t forget the headphones. If you blink you may miss the prime meridian.

Not very engaging. Would Not waste money . Just not really for kids and even an an adult it would have been dull

It is rare I write a poor review but I think it is important to highlight a tourist experience that I think lacks transparency. We went out to Greenwich to visit the Royal Observatory as we had been there before and wanted our children to experience it. We paid in and expected the same as our previous visit but shortly into it I asked for for directions to the planetarium to be told that it is closed for refurb and will be so for 2 years. It was no information alerting us to this anywhere and it is not clearly stated on the website. While the time line etc is interesting it is very historic and lacks excitement for children and teenagers. I would encourage that the current closure of the plantarium to more clearly and widely communicated to visitors.

As part of a group in the afternoon of the 28 of June that was under the scheme "Universal Credit days out" I felt very unwelcomed. Later I heard others on the group complained as the team leader had some bossy attitudes towards the group and make us feel badly.

Interesting site with lots to see. Very pleasant and peaceful location away from busier London tourist traps. But we had a few complaints: moscow was listed on the Prime Meridian line, but not Kyiv. The Ukrainian capital was also spelled in it's russian version in some exhibits.

Suitable for those interested in the history of astronomy and watchmaking.

My husband and I took the Thames Clipper Uber boat from the Westminster pier in London which was such an easy and enjoyable way to get to Greenwich. My research did not uncover the walk up to the Observatory; more difficult for my husband, but it is shady and there are lots of benches. I guess a shuttle is available on the weekend. I loved this so much more than I expected. I found the audio device very helpful and although we missed the museum provided tour (for an extra charge), for a portion of our walking around we were close enough to hear the guide, and it appeared very helpful and interesting. I love history and although I was familiar with the concept of Greenwich Mean Time, I did not completely understand the laborious and lengthy process it took for scientists and astronomers to establish a standard of time that could apply worldwide. The exhibits and especially the placards were well done and very informative. It was so surprising for me to learn that the 24 time zones of the world were only adopted in the 1880's. We visited in late May, when a record heat wave was occuring (90+ degrees ) and so didn't linger after completing our visit. However, the grounds appeared extensive, and well kept and such a great view across the Thames of London.

We hadn’t realised this was an audio tour where we had to use our phones to listen to the commentary. We had a time slot but could have gone any time really. You scan a QR code and off you go . To be honest we put our phones away and just read the information sheets as we went around. It’s quite an interesting place to visit. It’s £10 on Tuesdays and I think that’s a fair price to pay

Paul Miller was by far one of the best tour guides ever. I didn't even know I was interested in astronomy until I met Paul. He was so knowledgeable, kind, and clever, and I wouldn't be surprised if in a prior life he was an actor or a comedian. You will learn about science and history. The tour was only an additional £5, and it was totally worth it. A++++++
