Good very fun an awesome
It was wonderful and full of information.
The children loved ot ,very interesting
What an amazing way to understand some of London’s history. Would recommend to families young or old. The train ride through the tunnels built in 1927 is beyond exciting, and will delight even the most grumpy of souls
Loved it! Was amazed to travel below London’s streets in train tracks that only a few are aware of. The ride, the multimedia show and the history was very nicely done. Thoroughly recommended for history and transport (and of course mail) buffs! Fun time with my kid as well.
As a family of 2 adults and our 7 year old, we all enjoyed the Postal Museum. The ride in the underground system was awesome and educational. Our dsughter loved going through and dressing up, doing activities. Definitely recommend..
