Great exhibition. Top tip...

Great exhibition. Top tip from friend who had visited before was to get the audio guide to save lots of reading. Partner is dyslexic so this made a great difference.

SO interesting — and definitely something different!

Really loved visiting the Body Worlds museum in Amsterdam!! It was honestly one of the most fascinating and unusual museums I’ve ever been to — although walking into a museum filled with actual real human bodies and body parts was definitely a little surreal at first 🤣. There was SO much to see and learn about, and I loved being able to see what different parts of the human body actually look like rather than just reading about them in a textbook. I also got to learn about different diseases and actually compare parts of the body affected by a disease with healthy ones, which I found SO interesting! It made it much easier to understand what the disease actually does to the body rather than just reading about it. It also turned out to be some rather useful Biology revision — because apparently even going on holiday doesn’t completely protect you from schoolwork 🤣! So, it was incredibly educational without ever feeling boring, as there were loads of interactive exhibits along the way too. You could even have your BMI measured, which was included in the ticket and was actually quite interesting to do! I also really liked how spread out everything was. Each section focused on something different, so there was plenty of space to stop and actually look at everything properly without feeling rushed — which was probably quite useful considering some of the exhibits required a few seconds to process what exactly I was looking at 🤣. The atmosphere was great too; it was really quiet and relaxed, which made it much easier to take everything in. The staff were also absolutely lovely and really friendly, which made the whole experience even nicer! Although I could spend however long we wanted, I spent approximately 2 hours there, which I thought was a really good amount of time. It gave me plenty of time to properly explore all the different sections and interactive exhibits without having to rush through everything. Some of the exhibits were definitely rather strange to look at, but that was also what made the museum so interesting and memorable! It’s completely different from a typical museum and certainly not something you see every day… which is probably a good thing in the case of some of the body parts 🤣. However, the tickets were quite expensive, which was probably the only downside. Though, considering how much there was to see and how unusual the whole experience was, I definitely think it was worth the money; so I’ll forgive them for that 🤣. Overall, I found it absolutely fascinating, really educational and SO interesting!! Definitely worth visiting if you’re in Amsterdam and interested in the human body; although perhaps not one for anyone particularly squeamish 🤣. Would 100% recommend!!

Interesting and insightful, a cheap way to pass a few hours

If you’re interested in the human body and anatomy/ how things work this is really interesting. My husband and I visited in March, I think the entrance tickets were about £14, cheap for Amsterdam! It took us a couple of hours to walk round, like others have said there’s a lot of stairs but there are also lifts for those with accessibility needs. Overall found it really fascinating seeing everything up close and getting a literal inside look into what goes on inside the human body. Would recommend to anyone with that sort of interest.

Nice to look at

The positive thing is that we got cheap tickets with Tripadvisor. At the entrance we were processed quickly and no one pointed out to us that the audio guides are available for additional purchase. Too bad, so the exhibition was not quite the highlight as expected. There are a few exhibits that are nice to look at, we had the bad luck that students were on site and they were so loud and had moved everything so that it was not pleasant. All in all nice, but we had expected more

Operator response

Dear Mareike, Thank you for the honest review. We’re glad to hear you found the exhibition nice to see and that you were able to get a good ticket price through Tripadvisor. We hope you enjoyed your visit and discovering more about the human body during your time in Amsterdam! Kind regards

Pleasantly surprised!

On 13/07 I visited Body Worlds in Rotterdam without really knowing what to expect. In the end I was very pleasantly surprised. Everything was neat and well-kept, and the exhibition was particularly educational. You get a unique insight into the human body in an accessible way. I definitely recommend going in the morning. At the time, there were not many people present, so you could quietly view everything and read the extensive information panels without being in a hurry. An interesting and impressive experience that I can definitely recommend to anyone curious about how the human body works.

Operator response
