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
Nice, good location, perfect exposition and explanation
Since there are 3 Davinci museu.s in Roma, it is easy to get confused and visit the wrong place. Please be more clear about the address.
Amazing museum. Some say it is a small museum but I thought it was fantastic and enjoyed every second of it. Took me about an hour to wander through it
A very good experience. Read the address well because several museums on Leonard is in Rome. The museum is not very large but offers a lot of reconstructed pieces with the possibility on a large part of it to test them to better understand the manufacturing process. An excellent museum to be made with children or even with family.
If you are a fan of Da Vinci, then this museum is for you. The museum depicts his technological and scientific genius through his numerous inventions which are shown here as models. In addition, the museum has a replica of all his paintings (the originals are scattered across many museums including the Louvre). The museum is somewhat small but it has a gift shop that sells copies of his paintings. We bought our ticket on the spot as there is not a big line to get in.
