You can easily get to the Science Museum by metro. The museum is only a 5-minute walk from South Kensington station and 15 minutes from Gloucester Road station on foot. Circle, District, and Piccadilly lines serve both stations. Buses 14, 49, 70, 74, 345, 360, 414, 430, and C1 also stop by the Science Museum.

Yes, but you’ll need to pre-book a Science Museum ticket online first. Those who cannot book online can also contact the booking desk by calling 033 0058 0058.

At the Science Museum, ventilation and enhanced cleaning routines help keep contamination at a minimum. While face masks aren’t compulsory, they are highly recommended, especially during busy times. Museum tickets are scanned using contactless e-scanners, and contactless payments are available throughout the museum. You’ll also find hand sanitizer stations around the museum, including crucial points (entrances, exits, and interactive experiences).

The Science Museum is open every day from 10 AM to 6 PM, with the last entry at 5.15. Please note that all galleries start closing 30 minutes before the museum closes.

The Science Museum provides free wifi to its visitors, which they can use to download many gallery guides printed as large print books.

You’ll quickly find restaurants only a few steps away from the Science Museum, but you can also find food and beverages inside the museum at one of the restaurants or cafés. Upon arrival, ask the Museum staff which spots are open during your visit, and they’ll gladly present you with options.

The Science Museum is conveniently next to two other major London Museums: the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Natural History Museum.

Storing luggage with Nannybag is easy and only takes a few seconds: you can book from the website or use the Nannybag App, available on the App Store and Google Play. Enter your location in the search bar, and you’ll have many options to store your luggage near you safely. You’ll quickly find luggage storage points in various key London locations. There are different ways to refer to luggage storage depending on the place you’re in. However, they’re all referring to the same luggage storage service. In the UK, for instance, you'll find mentions of left luggage instead of luggage lockers. If so, no worries; it only means you'll find a storage spot for your belongings.

To guarantee a worry-free experience, Nannybag protects travelers’ luggage up to £10,000 against any incidents (loss, theft, or breakage) that may occur during the service. Moreover, our Nannies are certified and carefully selected by our company to guarantee their professionalism and hospitality. Customers can also consult the online ratings for Nannybag and comments given to each Nanny by other travelers.

Founded in 1857, the Science Museum is home to some fascinating collections, including ground-breaking inventions that shaped history as we know it, such as the Apollo 10 Command Module or the Newcomen’s steam engine. Visitors discover exhibitions about computing, medicine, telecommunications, and countless other captivating subjects every year. The Science Museum is quite close to the Natural History Museum, so visiting both museums is the perfect opportunity to embark on a London adventure! Another great thing about this museum: access is free! You’ll have access to endless knowledge by simply pre-booking your ticket online!
