Beautiful museum! Starting from the Palace to the models of Leonardo's machines, almost all of which can be used.
Overall I recommend it. My two grandchildren had a great time. You can interact with the machines. Unfortunately, it is very humid and there is a strong smell of mold. I thank the shop assistant Veronica, truly welcoming and patient.
It was very good to go with the children, although the audio guide is a bit dense.
Short and easy visit - very suitable for kids with plenty of experience to try. The building itself is beautiful. Ideal as an « end of day » visit
Was as expected, it was interesting but short. Good for kids who are studying Leonardo in school. A short detour but nit a main attraction
We enjoyed the experience. Wonderful sightseeing and Information. Staff were friendly too. We enjoyed the activities
I entered without planning, because we passed the front and my husband wanted to enter. I found it very interesting, it really was worth it. The museum is small, but very complete. Da Vinci was really brilliant.
I booked with Viator these tickets with English language guide , when I got to the museum they told me I needed to pay extra it was not included , really disappointing started the tour badly for us as a family
Very large museum to see. You have 2 or 3 hours to devote to a museum we recommend. Many discoveries to observe.
Serious service provider but disappointing visit, the museum is very small and they are reproductions according to Da Vinci drawings but nothing authentic nor realization of Leonardo da Vinci
