Dug TremellenGiugno 21, 2015Museum which remains true to its eccentric late Victorian roots, set in beautiful grounds which make the most of the museum's hilltop placing. A perfect summer weekend afternoon
Votato positivo Feb 1
Great fun to be had by everyone. The aquarium is worth the small fee to enter, and during the summer they have jazz bands playing in the bandstand.
Remi LefevreGiugno 18, 2015Take a half day to make the most of your visit: both the Museum and its Gardens make a great weekend mini-trip. Extensive collections about animals, including an aquarium, and a great glasshouse café!
AlistairMaggio 10, 2016The photo exhibition of the Rio favelas is great. The walrus needs no introduction, the gardens are beautiful. The cafe is nice. It's free. I love this museum.
Valentina CoveyMarzo 25, 2016Beautiful green space in Forest Hill with sweeping panoramic views of London. Perfect for a picnic or a walk. Family friendly, with lots to do.
Isa SierraGiugno 14, 2016The Horniman is so poorly taken care of that its kind of charming. It definitely needs a clean (some of the spiders in the shelves are not taxidermy) but the displays are fabulous. Authentic.
Gordon SpoonerAgosto 20, 2013Great place for children (not so good if you want a quiet day). Brilliant collection of musical instruments, perhaps too many although lighting is poor making it difficult to view in detail.- Stef MattanaGiugno 30, 2016Go there in spring, it's wonderful! On weekends there's a market at the top of the hill with special food and bio eggs/meat/veg to buy.
Jon MooreGennaio 29, 2018What a great place to spend the afternoon. The butterfly house was lovely and the grounds are beautiful. Spectacular view of London too!
Michelin Travel & LifestyleSettembre 17, 2013Kids adore the nature trail, aquarium, "Hands On Base" where they can touch museum objects, and "Nature Base" where they can investigate a beehive. - Green Guide Editor
Alessia CameraAprile 9, 2017Lovely park and little museum on a hill in the South East. Better take a bus from the overground station, to avoid the sloping path.
GeorgeOttobre 24, 2015Great place to take children of all ages. Lovely farmers market on a Saturday morning with a great view of the city from the hilltop.
Vic McGinMarzo 23, 2015Lovely view of London from the gardens. The music garden is too much fun. And some amazingly weird taxidermy to freak out the kids.
Thunder CatDicembre 20, 2014The stunning views from the gardens stretch from Wembley to Canary Wharf. The museum is a treasure trove of unusual and interesting artefacts.
Catherine ReynoldsSettembre 21, 2014see the famous stuffed walrus, the fishes and walk in the garden. go back for the events especially the bat walk and season event!
Krystel JusticeDicembre 26, 2016Best children's museum I have ever attended. Great views of London from the playground.
Franz VitulliGiugno 9, 2016A fantastic family-friendly museum with beautiful gardens and a great view outside. Another hidden gem in London.
Neil TurnerGiugno 7, 2012Have a look at the unusual musical instruments and use the interactive panels to hear how they sounded. The gardens are also nice for a stroll or a picnic.
Martin TiedemannMaggio 29, 20129 November: Watch Fijian fish at the Aquarium. Visitors are offered the chance to immerse themselves in the underwater worlds of tropical Fijian coral reefs, British pond life, a mangrove swamp etc.
Be a member. It first cost a lot and you get to visit the exhibitions and aquarium free of charge unlimited for a year
Amazing Food And TravelGiugno 27, 2015Have been visiting since I was a child. The grounds and the exhibitions are great and lots of them are free.
unlike.netFebbraio 22, 2012Part of the Horniman’s charm is the fact that whilst it’s small enough to be manageable in one visit, crucially it’s still interesting enough that there’ll be something new each time you go. Leggi tutto
Beautiful gardens - great for picnics. Nice farmer's market every Sat - the black pudding sausage rolls are the best!- Stef MattanaLuglio 27, 2016Love the gardens. Make sure to stop by on Saturdays as there's a tiny cozy street market/food
Ben TaylorFebbraio 26, 2018A combination of fossils, live animals, stuffed animals and musical instruments.
The herb garden is amazing. Try to find chocolate mint and pineapple sage.
Time Out LondonMarzo 27, 2012A 25-foot Alaskan totem pole outside the main entrance gives a clue as to what’s in here: a wealth of quirky anthropological and natural history treasures. Leggi tutto
Jefferson LisboaGiugno 6, 2016Famoso por ser um dos únicos a manter o estilo tradicional britânico dentro do museu, conta também com um jardim enorme e um aquário (entrada paga)
Simon WillisonNovembre 10, 2013Cabin in the Woods fans rejoice... hidden within the Horniman's extensive collection is a genuine merman!
Elizabeth BuckleyAprile 6, 2015Beautiful garden, interesting culture museum and musical instruments museum 😊
There's a sundial trail running through the gardens and conservatory here, showcasing eleven different types of dial. http://www.sundials.co.uk/~hornimn.htm
Jeremy GordonDicembre 5, 2011Perfect place for the kids on a wet weekend. The aquarium and hands-on music room (adjacent to the instrument collection) are favourites.
HISTORY UKFebbraio 15, 2011This museum is famous for stuffed animals and musical instruments from around the world, all part of the collection of Frederick John Horniman who made his fortune in the 19th century tea trade.
Michael AmbjornAgosto 21, 2016Curiosities galore - and amazing views of London from the beautiful gardens.
Beautiful educational gardens full of herbs and other plants. Great London views on top of the Hill.
Erwin KrijgerAprile 8, 2015Great if you have kids. The gardens are beautiful and relaxing. Great view.
Danny UKNovembre 16, 2014Free entry, though no decent parking nearby. If suggest parking at Sainsbury for 2 hours and walking up.
Evening StandardMaggio 14, 2012One of the most popular displays at the Horniman Museum is a walrus created by a taxidermist who had never actually seen one and, not knowing that they had loose folds of skin, overstuffed it. Leggi tutto
Geoffrey MakstutisMaggio 30, 2010This is a great place for kids and parents alike. Very 'hands-on' with activities and events year round. A place you can return to again and again.- Check out Horniman's aquarium and its famous jellyfish tank.
If you're planning on eating in the cafe, take your food through to the ornate summer house in the gardens. Much more peaceful.
Sergei RinaldesAgosto 16, 2013Unexpectedly beautiful museum and garden and cool events organised by the best Arts and Events manager!- Time Out LondonFebbraio 23, 2012The most popular part of the museum is its showpiece Aquarium, where a series of tanks and rockpools cover seven distinct aquatic ecosystems.

Dirk Vom LehnMaggio 8, 2010Great collection of ethnographic objects, musical instruments, stuffed animals. Wonderful garden and excellent cafe. I not working here!
Matt RedmanOttobre 31, 2009Make sure you head into the gardens. From there you'll get an amazing view. You'll also find parking on Westwood Drive. There is also a great playground off Syndenam drive Leggi tutto
