Great museum about the history of the railroad in the Netherlands. The exhibition is extremely large and is ideal for children and adults. I especially liked the historic station building and the various interactive elements. What was great was that I was also able to enter various carriages. Visitors should plan four hours for the exhibition. The on-site team was extremely friendly and helpful. Tickets can be purchased at the ticket office or in advance online.

A great and big museum for all railway fans. But also if you are not a big fan, you will find here something interesting. So I really recommend it for everyone.

Happy to be back and to see that the museum is still evolving.. in a positive way for sure. The new “Iron Giants” ride is gorgeous. As always, the trains are polished until you can see yourself and the depth of information is great.

Me and my friend visited this museum and we really enjoyed it. All the history of Netherlands train can be seen here.
There was a show as well which was in Dutch but very funny and really nice experience.
I recommend you to visit it and don’t miss it.

An excellent day out. They are renovating the back section at the moment, so the miniature railway ride and freight train simulator experience are both shut, but the rest of the museum was still well worth visiting.
The Steel Monsters exhibit was very well put together.
The day we visited (a weekday in April) was relatively quiet. It was nice that they still put on a train from Utrecht Centraal to the museum even when it isn't overly busy. Great for families!
The kids science sections were a hit, some really thorough explanations on how trains work!

We went to the winter wonderland here and had the best time. Activities included ice skating, a carousel and a family photo! There was also a show on outside. We enjoyed the fresh hot donuts and toasting our own marshmallows.
Highly recommend this place. Staff were friendly too.

We went to this museum with my 5 year old son at the weekend. Access to the museum is really easy, walking distance from Utrecht Centraal train station. If you are coming by car, it has its own parking lot right in front of it. You can use this car park for 9.50 Euros. Museumkaart is valid. Inside, you can find everything about trains. It is also very fun for children because there are some special activities for them. For example, there is a special little train and dresin for them in the children's playground outside. You can take a journey from the first steam train in the Netherlands to the present day. You can also go 200 years ago with a time machine and visit a Dutch town that existed at that time. We spent about 4 hours and I advise you to spend at least half a day here.

A great place to visit whether you like trains or not ! Just a wonderful way to know more about this means of transport for kids and adults.
I would have love to have a section dedicated to what is needed to make a train function properly. The steel monsters attraction was a bit to light.
It is worth the visit !

I will explore more parts on the next visit 😃 the museum is really big so it might take long time to explore all the parts

Loved the experience. A great experience and ticket price is rewasonable. Its a big area with trains of different eras, great experience sections of old mines/workshops, time travel and lab. It has wide variety of cafes and sitting space. Keep time margin of minimu 3 hours to explore fully inside and also wear comfy shoes so that you can enjoy easily. Simply beautiful and informative experience. Highly recommended for people who love history, want to explore evolution and children education.

what could possibly be a really dull museum os perked by some really fascinating exhibitions. some might be a tad scary for little kids (the Steel Monster ride was a bit scary for this big kid!) but overall a really fun, interactive and tangible look at the history of the railway. A great place to bring kids. the parking was plentiful (but in fairness it was a slow day).

One of the best museums I've been. It's good to go with kids because they have a lot of activities and playgrounds for them, also a small train for them. They have a huge variety of real trains with inside decorations.

Most of the people that I saw in the museum, were adults with little kids.
As a guy (single 😉), I came alone and really enjoy the time here.
I use the train a lot in my days, so to witness the history in a fun way was a blast.
All on board!! 🚂

Cafe on site which was not too expensive and had decent food/drinks

Great museum for kids, they absolutely love it. Has a couple of nice attractions as well: virtual reality train driving, a small ride, elevator that brings you to ancient times. The only thing that was disappointing was the actor in the Theatre who clearly did not like kids which he expressed for about three times.

The Utrecht Railway Museum is a gem for both young and old alike. This museum, dedicated to the fascinating world of railways, offers an authentic journey through time with its collection of genuine railway relics.
Whether you're a railway enthusiast or simply looking for a fun and educational family outing, this place is highly recommended.
The museum's exhibits are not only informative but also beautifully curated, providing a rich historical perspective on the development of railways. Also you must visit the activity in 6D of driving a train. It's a great opportunity to explore vintage locomotives, carriages, and even step inside some of them.
The interactive displays and engaging activities make it an ideal destination for children, ensuring they'll have a blast while learning about the history of the railway. Overall, the Utrecht Railway Museum is a must-visit attraction that promises a memorable experience for all ages.

We loved it. The winter station was awesome and there were a lot of activities for kids. The skating rink is awesome with enough space for kids and adults. The collection of trains is great with some very unique carriages. Many places to eat. Easily accessible. No nearby bus stop but there is a sprinter from Utrecht Centraal which runs every hour.

I highly recommend seeing this museum if you come to Utrecht. We decided to pay a visit as the weather wasn't great and we weren't disappointed at all. It's huge inside with so much to see and do. Super interactive activities for the children and lots facts to be learned. They installed a winter station as it's Christmas so it's a bonus. There were ice rink and eat and drink places. We came after 3pm so only 10 Euro per head to be paid as a discounted fare (but you have to reserve your place online in advance during festive season). Both adults and children would thoroughly enjoy it.

St John's Cathedral is a grand church located in the Netherlands that was established during the 13th century. It boasts an impressive 73-meter high spire and is considered as one of the finest churches in the country. Constructed from 1336 to 1550, this cathedral features stunning late-Gothic stained-glass windows, a revered Madonna statue, and an organ case from the seventeenth century.
This Cathedral is amazing from the beginning you can see its Gothic style from the outside and inside --however, back on the days was more Romanesque but it was demolished =( --. You can walk for most of the places inside. as It is Gothic the combination between dark places and lights, makes it perfect contrast. the main tower has 74 meters and this make it the highest church in The Netherlands.

I am an American visiting friends in The Netherlands, and I recently visited the Sint-Janskathedraal, which is is a stunning cathedral in s'-Hertogenbosch.
The cathedral is almost 800 years old and includes many popular relics visited by the Catholic faithful.
I visited the day before Easter Sunday, and the cathedral looked perfect. It was inspirational to see all of the holy items, the artwork, and the architecture.
Be sure not to miss the amazing statues on the roof of the cathedral and be sure to look for the woman on her cell phone (calling a hotline to God)!

The Catholic Cathedral Church of St. John (Sint-Janskathedraal) of 's-Hertogenbosch, North Brabant is one of the most beautiful churches in the Netherlands. It is a Gothic church with richly decorated interior. It serves as the cathedral for the bishopric of 's-Hertogenbosch (Den Bosch). inside you can see the miraculous Statue of Our Lady of ’s-Hertogenbosch. There is also a small chapel dedicated to orthodox icons. It is definitely worth visiting.

Indoor & outdoor swims, plus steam rooms & massages, at a thermal bath complex overlooking the city.
Struck by the negative reviews. We had a wonderful full day in the Thermes and it was not enough. The outside pool is wonderful, multiple relaxation areas, hot jacuzzi baths. The treatments were lovely and very relaxing. We also had lunch at the Institut upstairs, it was light and very high quality products.
Anna — Google review
Add a bit more zen to the commercial aspect with regards to the treatments à l’Institut. Now very much a factory approach…in and out. However, giving people 5 minutes to wind down after treatment, an explanation of how to improve skincare, and why products are recommended, would already make a difference. Even the receptionist - where the products can be bought - doesn’t explain the why, what and how of what was written down on that paper we were given (in fact, she was quite rude). In short, customer experience to be improved à l’Institut. On the other hand, the ladies downstairs at the entrance are amazing!

Unfortunately this is not a spa or sauna. This is one large beautiful swimming pool with two saunas, or rather, one sauna and one hammam and that’s it.
Here everyone wears clothes. I can't imagine anyone wearing swim trunks to a spa.

Totally disappointed with Thermes de Spa!
I had in mind it's a health resort, it turns out to be just a place with a fancy big pool included 2 jacuzzis in it (I must say; the design of this big pool is quite nice and impressive!) Then an open relax area with some lamps on top of the chairs (The floor was wet and slippery and so noisy from the big pool plus some swiches for the lamps were not even working). A huge wet changing room and a restaurant.
As luckily we also booked the body massage. We got a better service which we could exclusively using a private lift to go to the 2nd floor, where you could have a quiet pleasant restaurant for lunch. Much better changing room with shower facilities and a 100% quiet relaxing room where I got a relaxing day by spending most of the time there in between the sauna and hammam. Actually one could get all these facilities and services in many exclusive gym too! No need to come all the way here!
So because we paid extra for the body massage. We could get the better hospitality out of the facilities. But the worst part was the body massage that I was looking forwards to so much was a disaster!
In my life I had so many body massages in many different countries. In my experience this must be the worst one. Sorry it was not a massage! All I could describe was like someone kept APPLYING some oil all over your body! There were no rubbing
or don't even mention massaging. Isn't body massage means massage from neck to toes? This is the first time I had a body massage was from neck to ankle. She never did my feet? I wonder how could Thermes de Spa could send an apprentice instead of a qualified massagist to their customers??
The 1 point I gave here was for my lunch. Very good choices and fair price for the buffet lunch.
Ani Ginger — Google review
Large pool including outdoor section was fine, but crowded and felt like a normal swimming pool. No hotter or colder pools. Sauna and hammam were fine but you have a cold walk up the stairs and across a hall, which is not really acceptable. People were slipping on the floor as sandals were not allowed. Too expensive.
Thomas Bell — Google review
Reasonable! The prices are okay, if you're really into a day of spa you'd probably go somewhere more secluded. However, it has mas o menos everything you might need. The nude section was really calm which was a big added value as you felt more at peace here.

Mixed review!
Need to pay for towels (€4) which are thin and small. These get wet in the sauna and there is no swap service available to get a dry towel.
No drink water supply anywhere so had to pay for bottled water and no hammam, it’s just a steam room and a shower with soap.
But facilities and pool are nice. Didn’t see a thermal, just swimming pools.
Caroline — Google review
Too expensive (30 € for 3 hours). After all, this is just a public swimming pool with Sauna and Hammam. Not exactly a wellness oasis. Didn't see any pools with thermal water. Bit dated (got a late 90s vibe) and not much decorations. Staff is very friendly tho and it is reasonably clean.
In Germany, you'd pay around 20 € for similar public Spas.
Sebastian H — Google review
It was a nice spa and we had a relaxing time, but be aware that if you book 3 hours you have to actually be at the check out at exactly 3 hours after checking in, otherwise you have to pay extra before being able to leave. We were in a session that started half an hour before we had to leave and the person guiding it told us we would be fine and have some extra time, when we told the persons at reception they said their colleague in the spa should not have told us that as it wasn't his right to do so in a quite unfriendly manner. A bit sad to end the experience with this.

Found a bit poor in terms of variety. Just 2 saunas, one big pool, and a couple of jacuzzi which are always busy. Resting area was good.
I wouldn't say it was bad experience in general, but traveling just for Termes is not worth it.
Cafe is good, service was also fast and fine.
Nice view on city.

Lovely place to detach and relax. The space has lockers, showers, 2 pools (indoor and outdoor), massage section, sauna and jacuzzi (naturalist and non-naturalist). Fav section was the outdoor pool with a very nice nature scenery. Everything is clean, people tend to wear their flipflops in the shower area which is not allowed but this is what makes some of these sections swamped but other than that, super clean. Not crazy crowded, very nice calm time, even an affordable food place (sandwiches between 8-9euros, drinks 4 -5, salads 13, desserts 7). An entire day is 41 euros, opens from 10 to 21hr. Would go again for a relaxing visit!

The thermes are underwhelming. There is only one sauna and one strange-smelling steam room (with bathing suit), 2 jacuzzis and one big indoor and outdoor pool of which the temperature may be slightly increased. Generally not very clean. There is no shampoo. Weekend days only 3h (changing included), which is too short to be able to fully relax and take time to read a book. Overall weird experience. Would not come back.

A great place to spend your time pampering yourself, wlone or accompanied. They just need to be a bit flexible in replacing soak towels, especially to VIPs who've paid super high service cost.
And for you naturalists, you can go naked too in the all in a safe spot even though perfs and rule breakers are all around, but hey, it's not right but it's OK!

It's basically a big public mineral pool ($25 for 3 hours, per person). There are some jets and water features, but basically just a pool. If you are in Spa and have time to kill, might as well check it off your list...but don't go out of your way to see it. Honestly, it's weird. I wouldn't go again.

Don't be fooled! They ask you to arrive early and tell you you have 3 hours from your booked time. At checkout they claim you scanned your bracelet at an earlier time and charge you late exit fee. Your 3 hours start from when you scan your bracelet entering the facilities. Other than the stress leaving, trying to pay at a machine that doesn't work was a nice experience. Friendly staff (except at checkout), the facilities could have been more fresh. It does feel somewhat dated. Some old lime crust visible here and there. They offer two relaxation areas - naturist and clothed - the naturist area is much nicer almost to the point it feels like they were forced to add the clothed area and this was an inconvenience to the staff. Would give 4 stars if it felt more fresh and they made an effort to have a relaxing exit.

Lovely plan to chill out a bit. For weekends you can reserve only for 3 hours and for weekdays you have the option to be there the whole day. Ticket for 3 hours is about 34€ and if you are student you would pay only 27€. For the whole day usage it is about 40€. Then don't forget to take your towel woth you, ows you need to rent it there for 3€. The best part I would is the pool outside where you can enjoy the fresh air together with the warm water and it's an amazing feeling!

Incredible nice place to be with nice swimming pool inside and you can swim from inside to outside. There's a steamroller, hot (dry) sauna, different Jacuzzis., different health baths. For SURE TO RECOMMEND, especially in the winter when it is freezing and snowing outside, you can swim there outside in Incredible nice warm water. TOP!!!

I was thinking that this spa located in Spa would deserve our visit, driving from Brussels.
The answer was no. The pools are decent, but nothing extraordinary. Dry sauna was just acceptable, wet sauna was a joke (not the required temperature). Not really clean or well maintained.
Management seems poor as they sell tickets for only 3 hours and since you already don't have much to do at least you would like to relax for longer in the pool.
For anybody looking for a really good spa in Europe, go East - Hungary is unbeatable.

Valkenburg Castle Ruins, located in the south of Limburg, Netherlands, is a 14th-century hilltop castle built on ancient fortifications. The town of Valkenburg itself is known for its cozy and touristy atmosphere, with unique marl buildings. Despite being in ruins, the castle offers panoramic views of the surrounding Geul Valley. Visitors can explore the self-service site and enjoy depictions of its heyday.
Great indoor and outdoor experience. Rooftop cafe is ideal for snacks and coffee. 360 degree panoramic view is breathtaking. Underground parking is available nearby.
Recommended for tourists.

Spent a very fun morning exploring here. The entire thing is self service, from buying the tickets at the automated machine to the self guided walking tour. Lots of space to spread out and explore, and various ways around. Super interesting history and we loved the "depictions" of what the castle would have looked like during its heyday. Definitely recommend. Advisory: while there was an elevator to get to the entrance level, the walking paths didn't seem very wheelchair or stroller friendly.

Visiting the castle ruins made a good memory for our family. We did a self-service walking tour. There were written descriptions in Dutch and English throughout the ruins that described what we were seeing. There was also enough room for our young boys to run and explore the grounds. The ruins were big enough to get a good feel of the castle but not so big that the boys could get lost. Visiting the castle on the hill gave us a great view of the city. It takes about 45 minutes to walk through the castle ruins plus another 20 minutes if you stop to read many of the written site descriptions.

A well maintained ruin of a castle that met its fate, not in battle, but for political reasons with the threat that its strong defencive position offered.
A visit best combined with a tour of the caves beneath, which are intrinsically linked to the castle above.
One disappointment was that the English audioguide merely tended to be a reading of the text of the information panels at each point.

Nice historical place to visit 😉 . The place also in the city. It takes about 50 mins to walk around. Moreover, you can see the city from the castle 🏰

It is a great walk around the ruins, and inside the castle and what is pretty much left of it.
You get a great view of the town from above!

Great free stop with the Museumkaart. Very glad they had an elevator to get up the first hill, and the rest wasn't too bad. Great views of the city and lots of fun seeing the ruins of such an amazing old building. Was also fun to see all the old inscriptions in the stone from prior visitors 😅 Was just missing a souvenir shop 🤔

It was raining when we decided to go there on a weekend, but it was still so nice to walk around the ruins that we decided to stay. You could take a lift up one of two floors if you want to avoid stairs. There's a restaurant adjacent also and you can enter the ruins through the restaurant. There's a handy app, if you're planning to visit it- download the app over wi-fi in advance so you can make the most of your visit (and can avoid mobile data charges). It took us about an hour to walk around and explore, although you could take longer to truly enjoy your visit.

Overpriced for what you get. Sure the audio guide and the sign boards are great but at €25 for 2 adults and 1 child, you get some ruins on a hill. I wouldn't mind except the place is overgrown, has zero maintenance done, and the tickets are self service through a machine, so what's the entrance fee paying for???
Theme park with family-friendly & white-knuckle thrill rides, plus water attractions.
Great day at a wonderful theme park - though some times the lines were really long, so I'd recommend buying a pack of 'fast passes' to use when this occurs. The park is themed differently to others, but I quite liked it - it was quirky! Definitely a good day out.

Brilliant, clean, great park. Great selection of modern coasters and some classics: a log flume and 'Enterprise' ride (called G-Force). The only small criticism are the main coasters are full on white knuckle or for smaller kids, an improvement would be some intermediate ones. Overall one of the best parks I've been to though would still recommend for everyone 👌
Nicholas Richardson — Google review
Take it from someone who doesn’t like such parks, it’s an insane place. Lots of adrenaline activities, huge space. Went there on a Sunday and there were no entry queues.
There are 5 sensation levels, I made it only to the third one and was mortified, but there were amazing coasters for the high-adrenaline lovers. There are more than 40 activities to choose from, all levels.
Plenty of food options throughout the park grounds but mostly burgers. I found the gift shops particularly expensive.

Amazing park, not so themed but thrilling rides. They have rollercoasters for all types of people. Very good rides for smaller kids aswell. It was quite busy when we went (summer holidays) and My favorite was “untamed” def is one of my top 10 coasters!

Very big and nice amusement park. In some of the places you couldn't play the arcade games because they just take your coin and crash afterwards.. Some of the personal is really nice the others are grumpy... When we where getting home some of the employees where in the bus without masks

Great park with fun for everyone from little to adults. 6 exciting roller coasters, two of them in world top ten for highest G force.
Kids rides are separate and kids below 120cm can enjoy there.
Food options are not so many but ok.
Parking is huge and you pay before hand or then and there.

Great variety of rollercoasters! Would definitely go back! 🙌🏼🤹🏻♀️🎪🤩 We went on a Saturday and arrived around 1pm. The first queue was crazy long so we ditched it. The rest of the queues were decent. Wait time was around 10/15 minutes. Toward 3pm we didn’t wait more than 5 minutes! Was just sad the bungee required additional payment. Overall great!

A nice theme park with some cool areas and a number of elite rollercoasters such as untamed and goliath. Lost gravity is also a fun ride. There are some good flat rides and a vekoma madhouse
Ben Scholey — Google review
This park is really amazing, especially for thrill seekers. Untamed is just world-class if you ride it at night in the back. Highly recommend Fright Nights! The halloween attractions are well themed and especially Below was a unique experience. The food is very good, the atmosphere at Fright Nights with the shows, all the lights and lasers and scare actors is just amazing.
Daniel DK — Google review
Clearly seen better days especially with some of its older rides and themeing. But the new area is gorgeous and fully what the rest of the park should be. The rides themselves, especially the roller coasters were actually excellent and all felt incredible. It's not on the same tier as some other big parks, but it has some great rides. Vegan options leave a lot to be desired but that's true for a lot of rural Netherlands. A great day and a great park for what it is.
Imogen Lloyd — Google review
Interesting and fun theme park, a plethora of rollercoasters to pick from for the more daring.
But also a few less intense attractions for those that enjoy less intensity, don’t miss out on the water attractions such as Crazy River, El Rio Grande and the especially wet one Splash Battle. They will have you come out 💦 soaking💦 if you are unlucky with the water especially refreshing on a hot summer day.
To be able to see and experience most things I would recommend a day or two depending on how early you get there, the weather and what YOU enjoy.

Wow!! Simply amazing. Beats my expectations. If you are thrill seeker and fan of roller coasters, then Walibi is for you. Reach Harderwijk station and catch Walibi express to the park. There is not just 1,2 or 3 roller coasters but 7 and sky diving is cherry on the cake. And kids love them. I went on Easter holidays and was able to do it more than once most of the rides. Plus there are nice cafes and lot of fast food options. Highly recommended.

If you like roller coasters and thrill rides, this is the place for you! On Halloween, part of the park is also spookily decorated. Large selection of snacks such as burgers, fries (also loaded), kebabs, hot dogs, waffles and sweet Dutch specialties.

One of the best roller coasters. Untamed was so nice and fun. I tried all the roller coaster and had fun. Surprisingly waiting time was less on Sunday. We had to wait for lost gravity for more than half an hour.
We were really looking to ride speed of sound but it was closer for maintenance.
Overall experience was nice 😊

Awesome place to spend the weekend. A lot of attractions to try for kids and grown ups.
There are lockers to rent, small (5€) and bigger (7€). You can also have your backpack with you, and before the ride there are boxes where you can put it and collect after a ride.
Variety of food to buy but also there are tables and chair where you can sit and have your own food.
There is also free sun cream spots
Enjoy the Walibi
The Burgers' Zoo is a large zoo in the Netherlands that specializes in animals from all over the world, including many rare breeds. The zoo has a realistic reconstruction of their natural habitats, making it a popular tourist destination.
Very, very nice zoo! Really recommend to go.
See also all the photos I made. This will give a good impression in how close you will be able to get to the animals.
They route and layout is very clear. Different animal worlds, like desert, ocean, etc.
Obviously a bit more busy in child holidays, so would be better outside those....

I generally don’t go to zoos, but this place was just amazing. Loved the way they have created and maintained different habitats. Restaurants inside the rainforest offer best dining experience with life all around. Needs entire day to properly explore the place.
Dhiraj Bhaisare — Google review
I'm not a big fan of zoos, I was here with my team from work and I had little investment in the process of deciding a destination.
Although this looks much better maintained than a lot zoos I remember, I can't imagine this being in favor of the animals.
The different themed areas are nicely designed and there's a lot spaces to keep children busy, which is great because you rarely hear kids screaming.
Of course the shops and restaurants are expensive and sell the usual shirts, key chains, plates, you name it.
In contrast to Germany, you can pay everything anywhere with card or mobile. Love that.

Incredible zoo, the different zones were set up so well and made you feel part of the eco system. Lots for the kids to do also with both Indoor and outdoors play areas, we really liked seeing the manatees and the Elephants as well as the desert critters, there is also animals roaming around freely which was nice.

Great experience with family in the zoo. A lot to see. Prepare to walk. Feels like in a tropical forest and on safari in certain sections of the zoo, there are indoor and outdoor sections. The cafe is great too for lunch, coffee and cakes.

Such a beautiful combination of bush+zoo+desert+ocean and many other things to see .
*Highly recommended for adults and children.
*Provide many EV charging station will give it extra bounce.
There are more than one restaurant and cafe corner.
Visitors with kids will love it very accessible with the kid stroller all around the place .
I thought first the ticket price is high but when you are inside you will realize how this place well made and organized.

One of the best zoological parks in Europe.
Founded in 1913 by Johan Burgers. A 15 min (very nice scenery!) bus ride from the center of Arnhem.
It's a huge park with a great variety of animals and with the goal to preserve and rescue endangered species.
The staff is friendly, helpful and have great knowledge about their animals.
Tor Jeanson — Google review
Very nice zoo! We enjoyed the zoo for its nice and spacious enclosures. The zoo has a good balance between good acces to the animals and rest for the animals. Very nice pathways and nice foliage all around. There is a very wide selection of animals. The mangrove enclosure is a work of art. The manatees are amazing. The chimpansee and gorilla enclosures are also impressive. Enough restaurants. The food/souvenirs were expensive. The ticket price is fitting for such a nice zoo. The pathways are also very accessible for strollers. Very accessible for toddlers all around. This Zoo has perfected being a Zoo.
Maarten Prinsen — Google review
Very big zoo, with a large range of animals. There's also three playgrounds, one of which is indoors.
The animals seem well cared for and their cages are not too small.
The layout is a bit confusing and a few more sanitary stations could be added. There's a musical now, and the logo on the plan obscures a few paths. I would recommend using the plan from their website, as it doesn't feature the stupid ad and you can actually see _all_ the paths.
Admission price is very steep. On top of that, €8 for parking seems very excessive. But hey, judging by the amount of people there on a rainy day, they can get away with it.
Pieter Biesemans — Google review
This zoo is a personal favorite due to its diverse animals and realistic ecosystems. From deserts to tropical bushes, the experience is immersive. Animals are well cared for, and the zoo offers ample facilities. Visit early till closing for a comfortable, day-long exploration. Online tickets are recommended to avoid short weekend lines as well as to avail some nice online discounts. Should you plan to visit regularly, an annual pass is a must.

It's a beautiful zoo especially like this Sunday when it was raining most part of the day. De jungle(Bush) is great fun to do with you children. The aquariums are gorgeous. Furthermore there is a huge variety in places where to eat with each having there own theme. The prices are high that is true but we'll spend.
Casper Koopman — Google review
Incredibly gorgeous place, they don't just have amazing animals but the park itself is also amazing to walk through without even looking to the animals. But the animals are amazing too, such a variety! Make sure to be early because we got lucky to see nearly all animals because they were feeding them.

An amazing Zoo to visit with kids. There are many restaurants and kids playgrounds.
The ocean (aquarium) is breath taking, huge and has a variety of sea animals.
The concept of different environments is a real interesting experience.
You can easily spend 5 hours here if you have kids!

A lovely zoo for all ages. The zoo is divided into several different zones which are very nicely dressed accordingly. What I personally likes a lot was the safari restaurant which was spacious and had a lovely view over the safari enclosure. Here, you could grab a snack or drink while watching safari animals like giraffe's and zebras. The prices for the food here are quite on the high-end in my opinion though. Another touch I liked where the small "offroad" trails in the bush area which gave me a real exploring feeling.

We really enjoyed our visit at Burgers' Zoo. The park has a lot of area's (Ocean, Bush, Mangrove, Desert etc) where you can wander around. You can clearly see a lot of love went into creating and maintaining these areas. Food at the restaurants is a bit on the expensive side so you might want to consider bringing your own.
Michiel Essen — Google review
Still, I think, the best Zoo in The Netherlands. Explored it and was again amazed by the Ocean, Safari, Dessert etc. Enough parking, no waiting at entrance (our luck) at plenty of restaurants to have a rest. Burgers' Zoo, after 30 years since my last visit, still on no. 1

This is one of the best zoos in the Netherlands. I have visited this zoo several times, and it is always an adventure. You can easily spend a day here.
The zoo covers diverse habitats such as deserts, savannas, and oceans. You'll find lions, elephants, zebras, giraffes, tigers, and countless bird species, representing a wide range of big and small animals. In a thoughtful manner, the zoo educates the public about how human actions are disrupting the habitats of these animals, plants, and our planet in general. I particularly enjoy the ocean section, where you can observe and learn about various sea animals and plants. It is also highly educational for kids. The animals are well treated, though it's important to note that, being a zoo, they are kept without their will.
There are numerous playgrounds for kids. While the zoo offers several restaurants, they tend to be overpriced and not the best in terms of quality. Be sure to prepare yourself well for a long and adventurous day.

The zoo is amazing! It is the best place to spend the day with kids! There are playgrounds, an aquarium, many wonderful pavilions with a variety of plants and animals. Many of the animals can be seen up close, and they are in a large area, not at all like cages, which does not make me sad. The menu of the restaurants is a disappointment, I think it could be much more varied and healthy. Otherwise everything is marvellous!

Best zoo I've ever been to. Most animals have enough space, live in similar habitats as they do in the wild. The biomes flow into eachother.
Kaas Kop — Google review
They have an amazing inside area, so even on rainy days its a great visit. If you buy the yearly subscription, you can go in without any effort however many times you want, great for regular walks too! With family, alone, doesn't matter, this zoo is for everyone. Just be polite to the animals and respect the staff members. They do amazing work for this zoo. If there is any place I would like to see improved its the dessert area, the dessert area is the most unpopular area, mainly because there aren't as many animals to see like the Bush, Ocean or Mangrove. They are around you in the dessert but not really, I'd love to see more unique dessert animals that work well with visitors walking through. For example reptiles, but of course this wouldn't work well if you have a Lynx and Warthogs there. So I get their choices, but I think the dessert area could definitely use a revamp. Other than that the rest of the zoo is amazing. There is also a bird area in the back which could use some more love. My 2nd favorite zoo in the netherlands!

Antoon van Hooffplein 1, 6816 SH Arnhem, Netherlands
Designer Outlet Roermond is situated in the southeastern part of the Netherlands, with a rich history dating back to Roman times. The city of Roermond boasts iconic Dutch architecture, traditional houses, and picturesque streets that reflect its centuries-old heritage. It is also renowned as Europe's premier destination for outlet shopping. The outlet attracts visitors from near and far, with peak hours typically occurring around 2 PM on Sundays.
I have never been so indulged by a shopping experience as much as at Roermond. The place is a fairytale with most of the brands. The staff in every store are super friendly and very very organized. Truly and enjoyable experience with awesome food selection. The prices are reduced which makes it even better. To say the least, I highly highly recommend it
Marwan Zoueini — Google review
Nice outlet, the place is really very good organised I took photos of the store map. The prices are not so cheap and the collections are old. The outlet is open all the year round, 7 days per week and good to visit on weekends when you have nothing to do or need a shopping on Sunday.
Ruzanna Konjoryan — Google review
I visited Designer Outlet Roermond for the second time and again had a nice feeling. Beautifully decorated environment, many stores of well-known brands in one place. This is the best outlet center I have visited so far. Great location near the city center, with a large parking lot at a good price per day. I am planning my next visit.
Nebojša Anđelković — Google review
I thought I was back in the USA. Prices were high or outrageously high for about 80% of the stores. Styles in half the stores were not appealing. Granted there were some really nice men’s stores. Food options were good and restrooms were available. Easily arrive in Roermond by train and walk to the mall. The city is very walkable. We only saw two vagrants in the entire city during our 7 hour visit and we saw no sketchy characters at the outlet mall. It’s a very high class location requiring a very high budget.
Jeffrey Scott — Google review
Great place to shop from your choice of designer outlets. Prices are reduced but size and color availability isn’t guaranteed. Big parking lot which is paid and shouldn’t be charged specially when you spend €600 in a day. Many options to eat and drink. Drinks are good too.

The outlet is also very well organized. The stores are all located in a central area, making it easy to get around. There are also plenty of restaurants and cafes where you can take a break from shopping.
If you are looking for a great place to shop for designer brands at a discount, I highly recommend Designer Outlet Roermond.
Pros:
Wide selection of brands
Great prices
Well organized
Plenty of amenities
Cons:
Can be crowded on weekends
I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great shopping experience.

Best outlet we’ve been to in Europe so far! So many luxury brands to shop at. The parking lot was a little wild on the weekend but it was worth the stress once we finally got a parking spot. There are tons of stores to shop at, but not too many places to eat.
10/10 would recommend visiting!!

This is a great destination for all kinds of fashion shopping. Prices are much cheaper compared to other places. The streets are beautiful and you can easily spend a day there.

I have been to the designer outlet and Roermond for the first time yesterday and i was really amazed looking so many stores together at a place so well designed next to each other. The whole area looks pretty and cozy and gives a modern village kinda vibe. The area is very clean as well. It's busy on the weekends as expected. For the kids it's also a fun place. There are couple of things to eat and play with in the walking area. The telephone booth was the highlight! Outlets also had big range of products in very cheap price. Definitely worth visiting!

Very convenient area with various brands from clothes to cosmetics... (Gucci, Boss, new balance, Dr. Martens, Ted baker, L'Oréal, l'occitane.... Etc.) I believe you can find everything you need there with lower price (check online just to be on the safe side). You need to walk a lot between shops and you don't even realized how time passes...3-4 hours not enough to see and visit! They have Starbucks and some restaurants as well. It would be nicer to go there when the weather is good because you also walk a lot between shops.
You can also claim tax refund which is amazing. Try not to do your shopping or go to the tax refund office just before their closure but at least 10-15 minutes before their closing time because they don't/ can't do it. Unfortunately we expérienced this issue and we drove 1 hour to arrive this Outlet. Therefore, we were a bit sad to miss these things.

One of the best Outlet and places I've been in Europe so far in 2023.

The best shopping center in the region, also very close to the German border, so that you can easily access it within half hour.
It’s an enormous shopping center with many different clothing, makeup and household stores as well as food stands and restaurants. There are always sales and the prices are below the retail price, which makes the shopping experience even better.
There is a huge parking outdoors and indoors, which costs 5€/day, which is really cheap if you are planning on spending the day there. There is also a private parking area with 9€/day.

Atmospheric place, very beautiful decor, New Year's atmosphere. Lots of brand stores. Mostly old collections, or were specially tailored for outlets.
There are queues everywhere, but they move quickly.
You can only go if you want to buy Gucci or Versace, but even there, be prepared not for classic Gucci, but for collaborations.

🛍️Here you can find all famous brands (Boss, Armani, Prada and many others) at discounted prices. It is a cozy place, narrow streets, each store is a separate house, and everything is combined into one complex. There are cafes, a children's playground, a carousel and a large parking lot 🙂

🔋I found a machine, where you can take a power bank on bail (to charge your phone, for example) - it’s very convenient.

Personally, this is the best outlet I have ever been in Europe. The diversity of stores is amazing, too many brands that you can’t find in other regular outlets. Also there are plenty of restaurants and cafes. Unfortunately, I arrived 3 hours before the closure. 3 hours were not enough to shop all the stores! They do have guest service for tax refunds. It takes 2 hours driving from Amsterdam.

Enjoyable mixed indoors and outdoors shopping experience with shops housed in nice European styled buildings. Well serviced with eating and rest rooms and plenty of parking space (for only 5€ a day). I visited this outlet center twice and my main take away is: discounts are not as interesting as they may sound from "outlet" in the name. I compared the price of items I purchased here with their price online, they ranged from a couple of Euros cheaper (like 5€ for an item of 70€) to the same price to even more expensive than online. Look at it more like a nice tour through international brands concentrated into one place, to at best save couple of Euros, but nothing close to making huge savings.
Toverland is a family-friendly amusement park in the Netherlands that offers magic-themed roller coasters, rides, live shows, and restaurants. It's a great destination for a holiday with children, offering an array of attractions suitable for both thrill-seekers and those seeking a more relaxed experience. The park features well-decorated surroundings and even includes indoor activities for rainy days. Visitors can enjoy various rides and games while also indulging in reasonably priced food options.
A great park! Beautifully decorated for the holidays it has met and exceeded our expectations. We went with a 6 year old and an 11 year old and could enjoy almost all the rides even in winter. The pavilions were great for a short escape from the rain and the special winter adventures were also lovely. Special mention for the staff who are all young professional and very nice.
Oh and the best thing absolutely no lines anywhere.

Calm and very neat park, busy but not straight away for mid August. Plenty of rides and stuff for all ages. Went with 3 older teens. Troy is a proper ride and should be sampled a few times. A classy Thorpe park?
_ Powmon — Google review
We start with the facilities, the truth is that they are super good, you can see that the gears, and other elements are in good condition, which offers a sense of security; It has a good theme and a multitude of attractions for both adults and children, it is divided into 6 zones but perfectly connected between one attraction and the other.
Another issue is the price, it has 2 modes: one only in the afternoon and the other for the whole day, the prices are very reasonable, for what it offers the price is super cheap, it is a good way to spend the day either with the family or with friends.
It is a good option at a very affordable price.
The only fault I would make is that on weekends there are crowds of people, which sometimes forces you to queue at the attractions.
Abel Moure Alvarez — Google review
A must-visit for theme park enthusiasts, beautiful and immaculately kept park with a growing and varied collection of attractions to enthrall young families and thrill-seekers alike. At Christmas, the park has more Christmas trees than any other park we've visited, stunning lights and a wonderfully festive atmosphere, with skating, winter slides and a unique soundtrack that we really appreciated. We will definitely be making this a stop again on our next visit to he mainland.

Great park, fun rides but a little bit small.
I very much like the indoor area that is huge and I guess can be a great bonus in bad weather.
But after 4 o'clock the kids got bored if it .
I guess a few more rides would be needed to fill the day.

Great park, everything is beautiful and clean and well thought.
The rides are fit for all type of audience - we went in three persons, a couple and a 2 year old. He had A LOT of fun on the kiddy’s rides (they have a whole covered pavilion for kids, amazing! Specially after they are 4/5, but my sun had a lot to do even being smaller), and we also manage to go on all roller coasters with the “baby swap” (he goes, I stay with our son and vice versa, one line only).
I would definitely come back - we even got a free return ticket for the winter…
Ah! The food is ok, you have fancy expensive theme restaurants, but also fast food with cheaper prices (not as expensive as other big parks I’ve been to)

Very good amusement park. We were on a weekend and there were small queues. The lines moved quickly. When you sit on the attraction, you put things in the baskets on the other side of the attraction and they are safe at that moment, you can pick them up after the end of the trip, very comfortable. If you are traveling with kids a must! Necessarily!!!! Take spare items with you. there are very cool and fun water rides after which you will need to change clothes. Some attractions have photo fixation. Don't forget to smile))) Photo boxes are available immediately upon exit and for 4 euros they send your chosen photo to your e-mail. Spent the whole day there. The children are very happy. There are rides of varying difficulty. There is a dining area where you can eat and just sit and relax. Lots of toilets and paid parking. When buying tickets in advance online, there are discounts and this is very convenient.

A great family theme park, with some really great themed rides and attractions, the area Avalon is very impressive and on par with Efteling. Easy to access via public transport, with a Train to Horst-Sevenum and a connecting bus to the park.

Absolutely fantastic place to visit, one of the best theme parks I've been to. Great range of rides to suit everyone and none with a huge wait when we visited. We visited on a rainy day but the indoor area is amazing with plenty to do. A lot of food options and the park itself is very easy to get round. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area!

Too many attractions for toddlers as well as teenagers and adults. A huge area of the park is covered, so if the weather is bad still one can enjoy a lot of attractions. A great family park.

This place is amazing.. went multiple times over the winter holidays with the kids and its just so cool. The roller coasters are fast, tall and all different from each other.. there's something for everyone here

Enchanting theme park. It is rather small but the roller coasters and the overall areas are charming. It is worth the ticket price. If you are a thrill rides lover, Fenix and Troy will fulfill your envies. If you are with your family, a lot of rides are adapted to children. Don't miss out on Merlin's quest ! Such a splendid and calming boat cruise.

Great park to visit with young and older kids. There are enough attractions for everyone to enjoy (parents included).😉
You can see the park in one day, the size is just perfect.
We brought our own food, but they have plenty of choice for all tastes. We ended up having some snacks in the park anyway.
In their website they have a list of dietary choices, I was able to get my vegan coffee.
Staff was friendly and helpful.
I really recommend it, if you are looking for a good place to enjoy with the kids in Limburg.

One of the best amusement parks we’ve been to with the kids.
It has a great variety of rides which appeal to both the thrill seeker and the calmer visitors. The whole park is decorated nicely and with the halloween additions it is even more magical.
Definitely worth the money. The admission price is very reasonable for the many attractions. There are also many mini-games to play indoor so when it rains you can still have a lot of fun - there’s even an indoor rollercoaster!
So overall I would definitely recommend this for a day out with the family.
Oh and this time of year: we never waited more than two turns per ride and most of them we didn’t have to wait at all.

Amazing park. Most rides operating in the Snow. Would 100% recomend as a perfect all ages park.
The Palace of Het Loo in Apeldoorn is one of the most important national museums in the Netherlands. It has an excellent art collection, and there are guided tours of the royal apartments.
Beautiful gardens and well maintained palace with interesting audio tours. Yes the work is still ongoing to finish the front of the palace but still worth a visit. Don’t miss out on visiting the roof, especially on a beautiful day - the entrance is a bit hidden so I missed it the first time, had to ask for directions to find it.
Emma LC — Google review
Beautiful palace with beautifully restored interiors. The gardens are also breathtaking. Fully rated spoil grapes shop full of nonsense, where you can't even buy a postcard or a magnet with a palace. They don't even have any text or brochure here, just audio guides. The app could not be downloaded from the Play Store.
Mat?j Bekera — Google review
Download the app and audio tour before you go. Tour is great - informative while being entertaining and never boring. Really high quality.
Palace is great, with very helpful friendly and informative staff spread around and happy to answer questions.
Suggest allowing c1.5 hours for the Palace if doing the two sections of the audio tour, and a further 30 mins minimum for the gardens, or 1.5 hours if you intend to do the formal gardens and the orange route around the boating lake (all of which are well worth doing).
The new gallery space below the courtyard is amazing, with an interesting g exhibition about the project.

Beautiful and great looking palace. Inside there honestly isn’t really all that to do or look at but the few exhibitions and rooms you can check out are worth to check. It’s nice that they give you access to the rooftop as well which shows a beautiful view of the gardens and the surrounding area. I didn’t have time to visit the garden but if you’re there definitely visit the gardens as well, they look beautiful.

Beautiful castle, we went there for the "princess day" and it was very well organised. The gardens are beautiful. The castle itself is closed due to renovation and it will open somewhere next year so I'm looking forward to visiting again once it's fully open.

Very beautiful place. Brand new museum! 2 bar cafes restaurants with amazing lunch as well. A lot of facilities to visit and a great story to read. You need at least 3 hours to discover all the palace rooms and then at least 1 hour to walk through the gardens. There is a hike root as well so be prepared with hat, water and good shoes!
Theano — Google review
Really nice place! Lots to see! We went there just a bit before closing and ended up getting to the gardens right before they started to kick people out. If you end up with the same problem - go to the very end of the gardens first and then walk back - because they start moving people out in that direction.
Layout of the Palace was a little confusing we ended up missing one side of it but we also knew we needed to go to the gardens before they close.
Make sure you go to the rooftop! The views of the garden are maybe even better than what you would see down there.

Beautifully renovated Royal Palace in prime condition with amazing gardens in a huge park. Built by/for William III of William and Mary fame (the guy who conquered England in 1666).
The outside is Dutch Renaissance with French formal gardens and a more English park.
The inside is a wonderful collection of rooms in the Renaissance, Baroque, Empire and 1930s styles. Plus the lush new entrance in a very marbly 2020s style.
Catering is so-so. The 2 restaurants could not sell us a bottle of water for my thirsty kids. There is no vending machine, strangely.
Parking is easy and plentiful, but not cheap at 8 euros. Public transportation access is good from the Apeldoorn station.
Ventilation is disappointing. I measured up to 1,050 ppm on a reasonably busy day. Not good enough. It smells stuffy too, which cannot be good for the palace and its contents.
There are two good merchandise shops but nothing I could use in a modern styled home, apart from the obligatory fridge magnet. I think foreign visitors might love the shopping.
The broader Veluwe area is lovely and has amusement parks, forests, a hunting lodge, a Van Gogh museum and a monkey zoo.

A fantastic place to be! Even though the palace itself is still closed, but the park and garden are open. We joined the “prince and princes day”, which was just great! Kids just loved it. Very well organized!

I really enjoyed visiting this Palace Het Loo in Apeldoorn. With the museumkaart is free, though the parking is paid.
The palace is really big though visits are only allowed in part of it. The palace is really well conserved and preserved.
It has a huge garden super beautiful that you can see from the rooftop. You can also walk there and even go to the forest that is part of the visit. This forest is really worth the try so take your boots/sneakers. It has a huge and beautiful lake, statues and things like that.
You can spend an entire day over there, if you want. There is a cafe where you can buy some food / drinks.
For me, the best was the library. For those who like books, is difficult not to like it.
Cl?udia Pereira — Google review
Having visited many outstanding palaces and gardens in the UK & Europe this is certainly in our top 5, the gardens are impressive and impeccably maintained.
The entrance to the palace via the underground atrium is spectacular, although the palace is sparsely furnished it doesn’t detract form it’s grandeur.
Andrew Holt — Google review
It is very nicely organised with several routes and tours to follow. The app that you can download can give you the tour as well. Written or spoken.
Beautiful Palace as expected ofcourse! Each room with a story of its own and all the little details present, will keep you busy for as long as you'd like.
Don't forget to look up!
The restaurant is decent enough with decent prices.
The reason why it only get 3 stars from me is this:
In the public Palace gardens in front of the Palace itself, the are some nice benches you can sit and relax. To bad there's a lot of trash laying around. This also has to do with the little amount of bins available.
Inside the Palace, it is so unbelievably busy, that (at least I did) the feeling of being rushed has a constant presence. People almost pushing themselves into the next room, not keeping in account that they are not the only once there. That really put down the experience it gave.
Dennis van Bommel — Google review
Former Palace of the Royal family of the Netherlands, now a museum. Has been renovated recently. It does showcase the palace in different "states"- you can see rooms as they were in the beginning of the monarchy but also some how they looked like just 70 years ago.
Tip: download the app beforehand and bring a headset
Also plan enough time for the garden (if the weather permits it).
Claudia Abert — Google review
Palais Het Loo is really beautiful. You can spend the whole day visiting it, with your friends and family members. You can start with the indoor part of the castle and then see the beautiful gardens. You can click beautiful photos and videos to keep them as memories or share them with your dear ones. You can have a drink or lunch in the restaurant of the castle. Can't wait to visit it again!

No description inside (I liked that, but my boyfriend didn’t) although you can buy map, download an app with audio-tour or rent device to listen to. At the cafe inside we were waiting for 10-15 minutes and no one showed up so we left. There’s places to buy different kinds of things like postcard, vases and art.

Fabulous combination between new and old architecture! watching the play of light with the water of the fountain from below is fascinating. the finest materials in the new building but by no means ostentatious. magnificent view from the roof of the palace. wonderful gardens. in the rearmost part of the site you can relax wonderfully by the lake.
Michael Heumann — Google review
a non-pretentious baroque castle, only the dutch could accomplish that. inside still pretty fancy rooms of course. also the baroque lower and upper garden. at the end there also is an entrance/ exit to the castle forest, closes at 16.30! It is in general a pity, that the castle already closed at 17.00, since a lot of nice hours could be spend in the garden in summer evenings

The Aachen Cathedral (Aachener Dom) is a Roman Catholic cathedral in the city of Aachen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. It is one of the most important religious monuments in Europe and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997. The octagonal Palatine Chapel was built by Emperor Charlemagne as his palace church in 800 and later became the coronation chapel for Holy Roman Emperors. The Gothic choir was completed in 1414.
This Roman Catholic church is really old as it dates back to the 9th century. Many German Kings and Queens were crowned in Aachen's Cathedral, as well as being the resting place for Charlemagne. There is nothing modest about this structure. Mosaics, gold and marble in the interior add a glorious feeling. It is considered occidental architecture and if you take a tour you can learn all about this new UNESCO World Heritage site.
Sudarat Maneetapo — Google review
So much history throughout this stunning Dom. Free to walk in on the first floor, where you get a view of the mosaic ceilings and top to bottom, stained glass. The climb to the top of the tower is also easy and accessible. This is a must see when visiting Aachen.
Mathew Love — Google review
My visit to Aachen Cathedral in 2014 was a fascinating journey into the heart of history and art. The cathedral's rich architectural heritage and religious significance left a lasting impression, making it a must-visit destination for history enthusiasts and culture lovers.
The intricate design and craftsmanship of the cathedral's interior were awe-inspiring. The golden mosaics and beautifully adorned chapels showcased the skill of the artisans who created this magnificent place of worship. The Palatine Chapel, in particular, stood out with its unique octagonal shape and exquisite detailing.
The historical importance of Aachen Cathedral as the coronation site of numerous German kings added to its allure. Standing in the same space where centuries of royal history unfolded was a humbling experience that transported me back in time.
The cathedral's surroundings, including the charming Old Town and the nearby Elisenbrunnen, provided an excellent backdrop for exploring the city's cultural offerings.
However, the experience could have been enhanced with more detailed information provided at various points within the cathedral. While the architecture spoke volumes, additional signage or guided tours would have provided deeper insights into its historical and religious significance.
Overall, Aachen Cathedral is a treasure trove of art, history, and spirituality that should not be missed. Despite the minor lack of information, the beauty and cultural value of this UNESCO World Heritage Site make it a compelling destination for anyone with an appreciation for the past and the wonders of architectural excellence.

A pretty cool place to visit. The
architecture is very intricate on the outside. It’s amazing how detailed the inside is. Seems like every square inch of this place is as decorative as possible. The stained glass is a sight to see. Definitely worth a visit if you enjoy elaborate architecture. A pretty casual environment. You’re pretty much free to walk around at your leisure and enjoy it at your pace.

I was in awe to visit this church, no wonder it is the first site to be granted UNESCO World Heritage in Germany. Vistors are allowed starting at 1pm, you have to pay extra to enter the area where Charlemagne's grave is. It is really worth a visit. Very impressive. Pictures does not do the justice on how beautiful it is.

Impressive, unparalleled. Middle ages, Charlemagne, Barbarossa....i don't wont to repeat the trivial things - check Wiki... If you come around 10 am you probably will be lucky to book a same day guided tour ( German/English). With this tour you can see some areas of the Cathedral that are not accessible otherwise.

Majestic and huge church with intricate designs on the ceilings and floors inside. Very aesthetic and something very different from other cathedrals. A must recommend. Free to enter. You can also take pictures but you’d need to deposit 1 euro coin for taking pictures, which I think is justifiable as the interior is so beautiful.

It is a really singular cathedral (with a unique distribution of the main chambers) in comparison to the standard concept of cathedral that one could think about. During Christmas, it is surrounded by the Christmas market, which makes it even more special. I think it would be great, if they would allow us to get into the top of the cathedral to see the views.

Aachen Cathedral is a masterpiece that left me in awe. The intricate architecture and historical significance make it a must-visit.

A masterpiece of medieval architecture, it stands as a monumental testament to Charlemagne’s reign, and it blends Romanesque and Gothic styles in its grand design. Renowned for its Palatine Chapel and intricate mosaics, it has been a pilgrimage site and a coronation church for German kings, embodying centuries of European history and artistry.
Dusseldorf's iconic Rhine Tower is a towering landmark that offers panoramic views of the city and region from its riverside location. The building below, the new Landtag (regional parliament), is an extraordinary addition to the skyline. The tower also houses telecommunications equipment and provides signals for TV transmitters, FM and Radio. The observation deck and revolving restaurant are popular tourist attractions.
Very nice view when the weather is good. A must see in Düsseldorf. Before 11:00am entry is only 5 Euro/person, and up in the tower there is also Cafe, they have different drinks and cakes , ice cream …very relaxing

A phenomenal view of Düsseldorf and an absolute must visit destination. Ticket cost was €10 each and when you reach the top after a smooth ride you arrive at a bar.

The Rhine tower is an absolutely breathtaking structure, by the banks of the Rhine river. The evening hours are the peak times for visitors, it is recommended to book the tickets online. We got the tickets in the reception for €10 per adult. The elevator is very quick and takes you to the first level, where the in-house cafe and viewing area is located. The level above hosts a restaurant, which is again recommended to be reserved prior. An amazing experience overall, I must say!

This was definitely worth it. For a very low price I got to see amazing vistas of the entire city.

It’s definitely worth a visit if you happen to be in Dusseldorf, you will not regret it!

Overall nice TV Tower with a not bad view. However there's really not too much other value added to it, hence the 10 euro ticket doesn't feel like a super great deal. The middle level has some okay-ish snacks and drinks, but the upper level only opens in the night. So if you are visiting during the day, not much else you could do honestly.

Visiting the Rhine Tower (Rheinturm) was an incredible experience that I highly recommend to anyone visiting Düsseldorf! The panoramic views from the observation deck are simply breathtaking, offering a 360-degree perspective of the city and its surroundings. The high-speed elevator ride to the top was smooth and efficient, and once there, I was mesmerized by the stunning vistas of the Rhine River, Old Town, and modern skyline. The revolving restaurant provided a unique dining experience with delicious cuisine and ever-changing views. Additionally, the interactive exhibits and light show added to the excitement of the visit. The gift shop offered a variety of souvenirs to remember the experience. Overall, the Rhine Tower exceeded my expectations and made for an unforgettable outing in Düsseldorf!"

Breathtaking view.
€11+ to go up into a super hot tower, they need to install an AC here! ( They presumably do this so you buy expensive drinks at the top of the tower to cool you down. )
It was 10° outside, I wore a t-shirt, and I was still sweating there!
Food is quite expensive as well.
The view is good.

The Rheinturm in Düsseldorf is an absolute must-visit attraction! From the moment you set foot inside, you're treated to breathtaking panoramic views of the city and the beautiful Rhine River below. The observation deck offers an unparalleled vantage point to admire Düsseldorf's stunning skyline and surrounding landscape. Whether you visit during the day to take in the city's hustle and bustle or at night to witness the twinkling lights, the experience is truly magical. The futuristic design of the tower adds to its allure, making it a standout landmark in the city. The staff are friendly and informative, enhancing the overall experience. Whether you're a tourist or a local, a trip to the Rheinturm is sure to leave you with unforgettable memories. Five stars without a doubt!

This was quite a experience and worth it! You can park near the tower, a parking garage across the street for just 2 euro. The entry was not expensive, 10 euro per person or so. Acces to only 1 level and you have a look around the city for 360°. You can freely walk around and if you want lunch or take a drink, also toilets available. We watched the view for a 30min to 1 hours. Just go, even when you are afraid of heights!

The Cologne Cathedral is a huge, imposing building with a beautiful facade. It's also a popular tourist destination with guided tours and views of the Rhine.
Majestic, grand and all those similar adjectives. This is the main attraction in cologne and is worth it. The space around the cathedral is also relaxing. The insides of the cathedral is breathtaking. Also you can climb the tower which is also, literally, breathtaking, since there are 500 odd steps to climb. Visit as early as possible to avoid crowd. It is specially beautiful at night with all the lights, it looks surreal.

The place outside the Cathedral is too crowded and noisy that it is less possible for us to breath. The place is so beautiful and inside of the cathedral is calm and quiet. The art works are extremely brilliant. It would be better to go during the day time especially when it is sunny, so that you can enjoy the colorful glass paintings inside the cathedral.

The Cologne Cathedral is a magnificent architectural masterpiece that I had the pleasure of visiting. This Gothic-style cathedral, located in Cologne, Germany, is truly a sight to behold. With its towering spires reaching towards the heavens and intricate stained glass windows, it is no wonder the cathedral has garnered so much admiration and recognition. The interior of the cathedral is equally awe-inspiring. The high ceilings and ornate carvings that adorn the walls add to the sense of grandeur and historical significance that this beautiful building possesses. I was particularly captivated by the organ, which is a remarkable feat of engineering and craftsmanship. The atmosphere inside the cathedral is one of reverence and tranquility, allowing visitors to appreciate the art and spirituality that encompasses them. Exploring the Cologne Cathedral was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city.

One of the most mesmerizing pieces of architecture I’v seen in my life. The details, the size, the view, the history and the beauty are all immaculate.
I came to cologne on a business trip and on my last day I decided to explore the city and it was the best decision ever and later I read about the cathedral and its history.
You can go to the other side of the river to take some nice photos as well.
Also note that if you want to get inside the cathedral you’ll have to go between 10:00 and 17:00 on weekdays.
The love bridge is also near by which will give you a nice view of the cathedral and the river.

If you're in town, there's no way you should miss it. It's not just about the aesthetics of the church but the whole vibrant atmosphere around it.

But if you get tired of the commotion, the tranquility of the Rhine River is just around the corner, along with great places to eat

Amazing Cathedral to see, right in the heart of Cologne. The view is tremendous from all sides on the outside - you'll have no issue spotting the tall spires, and as you close in you'll notice all the magnificent detail in the architecture. You can enter inside (check hours), however, you can't bring in any large bags; and be vigilant of any masses taking place.

A remarkable work of architecture that is difficult to fully absorb without being in front of it. There are many details worth appreciating when standing close; but it’s when you step back that you can feel the immense scale of the work.

If you're up for it, climb The Dom and then let your legs rest inside as you take in all the beauty within. Buy the guidebook in the gift shop so you can read more about the artwork and specific features as you're taking it all in. It's a beautiful piece of history to behold.

It was the first time in this city and really enjoyed walking around and seeing so many interesting places and of course this cathedral I couldn’t had it in one flame and also couldn’t had it without the crowd.
But we could enjoyed the views from far away. Hope everyone enjoyed visiting this cathedral and this city as well
Have a wonderful trip and a good time with your company

Wow! Such a great Cathedral! So many interesting features. It is absolutely stunning. I would highly recommend visiting it. It's free to enter but the guided tour is worth the €10. Also it's extra for the treasury and climbing the South tower

Outstanding! Don't miss the opportunity to go to the top of the belfry (no elevator, might be very cold and windy depending on the season and weather). Free admission to the cathedral, 5€/person - entrance to the belltower. And there is a WC :)

Entrance to Cathedral is free. In front of is the line for security check only. Place is the highest and built with so many details you must visit and see. Inside is possible to light a candle and pray, there is enough space to get peace from tourists for a few minutes. Overall, amazing.

Amazing and breathtaking, a true feat of human engineering. Free entry into cathedral proper, but small fee if you want to climb the tower (~500 steps) or explore the treasury. Main church has plenty to see and its easy to relax and enjoy the organ every so often. Mass is available quite frequently. Such a beautiful and impressive church! Definitely worth a trip to see!

Magnificent cathedral with majestic views. The first view of the cathedral from the train station is breathtaking. The (ticketed) climb up the stairs of bell tower was fun and the views of Cologne from the top were great. Definitely worth a visit.

Going to Cologne Cathedral with your friends was amazing. The building is super impressive with its tall spires and fancy details.
When you go to the top, you can see a really great view of the city. It's a really special place shows architecture brilliance, history and culture. Definitely worth checking out!

It is one of the most visited destinations by tourists, as it is definitely impressive. I was totally fascinated by the architecture of this place.
I loved the feeling of tranquility and security inside the cathedral. However, it is also quite imposing. What surprised me the most was the catacombs part.
I am fortunate to have had the opportunity to visit this place.

Cologne Cathedral is beautiful, amazing building. It is 157 m tall and the world’s third largest Gothic-style cathedral with 10,000 square metres of windows and 20,000 visitors daily.
A lot of people want to take a picture of it so always is crowded in front of cathedral, but it's worth it.

I visited Cologne for Christmas 2023 and it was a great experience. There were a lot of tourists, big crowds, and there was a Christmas bazaar around the cathedral. This cathedral is my second favorite place in Germany, so I highly recommend everyone to visit it. It's huge size cathedral, look so amazing by night

What an impressive building it is! Beyond imagination. I was blown away and someone even played the organs. Thank you for that.
I just do not understand why they decided to build a railway station and a two lane road by the cathedral.

Climbed to the top of the cathedral. One stair case for both up and down and over 500 steps on a narrow spiral staircase. Not for the unfit or people scared of tight spaces. However once at the top the views were amazing

This was the first cathedral we went to on our visit to Germany. As we came out of the DB station , the cologne cathedral standing in front looked heavenly... It was a sight which has remained with me till date, the beautiful architecture of the Cathedral along the hotel spaces with the rhine river bridge along it looked mesmerizing...
The interior of the church looks beautiful. There is a provision to go till the top through stairs and it gives a birds eye view of Cologne city 🌆
The cafes around are a cherry on top, just take a cup of a drink and enjoy the intricacies of the architectural beauty 😍

We visited the cathedral during the week. Once out of the train station you see the cathedral just outside. Take the opportunity to cross the bridge to the other side of the river and go to the view point. For a small fee you have spectacular views of all the city.

The scale of this place impresses me each time I visit. It's an incredible work of art and history. 300 years to build. It would be amazing if restorations were able to occur more quickly to remove more of the black from the exterior. It's truly amazing!

My life long dream came true last evening when I visited this good old Cathedral that survived heavy shelling during World War II. Place of biblical historical importance. Memorable Visit!
The Cologne Chocolate Museum is a museum dedicated to the history of chocolate. The museum has permanent exhibitions on the history of chocolate from different parts of the world, and includes interactive exhibits for visitors to experience the taste and texture of different chocolates.
What an impressive show of industrial skill. I’ve been to chocolate museums before but this was on another level. It had partially operational industrial machinery demonstrating how chocolate is made now and in the past. Then on top of that it has several historical exhibits, a chocolate shop and a cafe. Nearly everything is in English. Quite the experience for a foreigner.
Aron Steg — Google review
You can buy tickets upon entry, no need for advance tickets unless you want. I thoroughly enjoyed going through the museum and learning the history of chocolate and how it’s made, processed, and used across the world and different cultures.
Coolest part is seeing the chocolate actually made right in front of you through different steps. You even get to click a button that pops out the chocolate that was just cooled/made. Definitely worth the visit here in Cologne!

The place is great! A must visit tourist attraction in Cologne. The place is mostly crowded on the weekend and the getting a ticket there might become a big challenge. The place is located right at the heart of the city so it’s easily accessible but parking is a problem, the place doesn’t have its own parking, need to use nearby parking places and walk to the museum. The place has lot of history and future plans for chocolate industry, also the making of chocolate. A whole floor is dedicated for chocolate making and you can see how chocolate bars are made by looking at the working machines. There is also small chocolate outlet to get chocolates and souvenirs from the museum.

Very informative museum, plus free samples! Easy to get tickets as they were issued in 15minute increments. Loved the history and the ways so many countries contribute to chocolate manufacturing. Plus great to see chocolate making in action!! Cafe was a nice atmosphere after wandering; crepes were divine!!

I would not say that this is a must visit on your trip to Cologne. Also with entry ticket at at EUR 14 per adult, the place is a bit expensive. We went to the place as a family with our four year old son. The place gives information on chocolate processing, and one can find live chocolate production happening at the place. You can taste the freshly made chocolate, if you buy tickets to the museum. Overall the place is OK, If you are on a leisurely trip to Cologne, you may visit the place.

Nice place to have an idea about how the 'Lindt' chocolates are made. Very nice place to take children for their level of excitement.
Especially nice to see the different types of process throw which chocolates are made. It's one of a kind experience. Not to forget and miss the free sample tasting of chocolate wafers provided.
Wheelchair accessible entrance is available. Exciting information about chocolates are available.

The museum is not so big and the whole tour takes about 1-1,5 h. It's good to come in the morning as it isn't crowded. To avoid waiting in the line, I would recommend buying the tickets earlier via the website. In the museum you can see a lot of information about each step of chocolate production. Actually you will get an answer to all kinds of questions about chocolate. Inside there is a small production line which is very interesting. In the end, you may taste a fresh piece of chocolate or try something sweet from the chocolate fountain. This is definitely a place worth visiting however the price of the ticket could be a bit lower.

It was one of my super nice experiences. The museum gives us all the details of the chocolate 🍫, the history of the owner, and where the farms of the company are.
You can bay also pay one Euro to planting one coco tree 🌳

Reasonably priced and really enjoyable for people of all ages. Explains where the raw ingredients come from, transport, production (the smell is superb), marketing and sustainability to name a few. Free chocolate along the way including the chocolate fountain, and be sure not to miss the cafe afterwards, the staff everywhere were nice but my server in the cafe in particular was great. Gift shop not silly money either for the quality you’re buying. A must visit!!!
Lee Hinchcliffe — Google review
Really sweet experience!
They give some free Lindt chocolate when you enter, good for some sugar rush as you explore the museum.
You can try some free chocolates at various chocolate stations. You get to see the process of making chocolate and you’ll also see some robotic machinery they use now.
If you come in after 5pm, they have a ticket sale, since they close at 6pm. The chocolates in the store are also priced well.
Abigail Christine Chen — Google review
Really interesting factory museum. I thought they did a nice job including a wide array of interests/considerations to include some relating to fair trade and global warming concerns in the chocolate industry. Lots to look at, you could spend half a day here for sure. Loved the shop, plenty to buy there. One of the coolest things was that you have the opportunity to have a custom chocolate bar made right in front of you!
Crystal Firestone — Google review
Fun for the entire family. I think particularly those with children would do themselves a disservice by not going to this place. But even those who would perhaps have a grey hair more than they would like are still going to find something fun and educational in the visit. The tour is well laid out and you get great views of the city . Its a well spent time in Cologne.

This is an amazing place to be. Although there was a huge crowd both in and outside the museum you’ll love it there. So detailed illustration of how chocolate is made. You’ll also get small gifts both when going in, inside and when going outside. It’s a lovely experience

I love chocolate, especially lindt! Complimentary chocolate on arrival was happily received, then an interesting history of cocoa until the best part, the chocolate fountain and factory section. Samples of the liquid chocolate are handed out, I could've stayed in that section the whole time! I wasn't too bothered about the rest of the museum other than the complimentary chocolates upon leaving. The shop had an amazing selection too. Busy on weekends

A beautiful and charming museum. Gives you a nice background about the chocolate making, manufacturing and distribution process. You also get free chocolates! You can also get a chocolate from freshly prepared chocolate. If you want you can also make your own customized chocolate bar. It takes almost 2-3 hrs to roam around the museum. Do not forget to get chocolates from the shop below😄.

We visited the Lindt chocolate Museum recently. We were thrilled to attend the fine tasting session. The narrator gave us an complete overview of the chocolate processing and we had an opportunity to taste some of the products during the process like from the coco beans, coco butter to final stage of finished chocolate.
Highly recommend to get an online booking specially during weekend. We saw really huge line on Saturday luckily we had our session booked. Good for kids.
maya soora — Google review
Buy tickets in advance online. Go early, when the museum opens to avoid the crowds. I enjoyed that they showed the entire journey of a chocolate bar. Even showing things like shipping and market share of different brands. Even though I was there on a Sunday there were lots of staff in the chocolate factory showing off their craft which was great to see. The museum also had a history part, detailing things such as chocolate during the wars. So in summary, the museum really has a bit of everything and of course the opportunity to taste the chocolate. I would recommend a visit if in Cologne. Also, if you are there during December the Christmas market in front of the museum was one of the less crowded markets.
Jen Jomp — Google review
It is a well designed museum with a lot happening there.
As many others recommended, buy your ticket well in advance and if you're interested in a tour (I highly recommend one) buy it way way in advance.
I booked the short course (30 min) that gave an overview of different stages of production with tasting (Yes! we tried a bean!). It was worth the extra 2.5 EUR for sure and was not too long.
There's a green house with chocolate and banana trees that have fruits!
I recommend going there if you're in Köln. Definitely one of the best things to do there.

Visiting this museum was one of the best decisions I made when I was in Cologne, Germany.
During the tour there are different exhibitions that explain everything from the origin of chocolate, to the way it is processed and obtained, as well as its commercial distribution.
The tour is very entertaining, and the best thing is that they give free chocolate samples. Although the price could be considered somewhat high, I think it is totally worth it.

Pretty special museum if you are really into chocolate, infographics, and more chocolate :)
Try to avoid visiting during weekends for a less crowded experience, and buy your ticket online to avoid waiting on the queue in the entrance
The museum has nice areas to visit, a cafe and a chocolate store. There is even a roof you can access from outside with a beautiful view

Super cool. You get to see where chocolate started and all of the processes to make it. There are samples from the chocolate made right in front of you, and you even have an opportunity to have your own chocolate bar made with different toppings. The chocolate tastes better than what is sold in the stores. So delicious and so fun! Use the QR code to purchase tickets. Waiting in line takes a lot longer.

That was a nice place to visit when you are in Cologne. Seeing A cocoa tree is interesting and a bunch of interesting information. My only complaint was the people assigned who are helping/ordering the queue. They were rude even on a plain simple question...
Wildlands Adventure Zoo in Emmen is a fun and interactive zoo perfect for kids. The zoo features walk-through animal habitats, playgrounds, and food stands. Visitors can explore the lively animal exhibitions and enjoy great food, clean facilities, and good stores. Additionally, the location offers easy access to other attractions such as climbing parks, amusement parks, and national parks in the surrounding area.
Hi, I've been to loads of animal parks but this one is fantastic... From start to finish I enjoyed everything they had... My kids absolutely enjoyed themselves... I must say that Holland has the best Animal parks and Zoos in Europe and this one has just been a touch better than burger zoo ... A big thanks to the everyone from booking in to looking after the Animals... I can recommend this establishment

Amazing place. A must visit for everyone. There are different zones in it, like Serengeti etc. The whole setup is lovely. Also, to see and explore the whole place properly, you need atleast two days. Do not miss the boat ride or the jungle safari while you are there. Ample parking and lots of eating options as well.

We visited one night during the 2-week long Wild Nights festival. It was very cold and had been raining, though not while we were there. My daughter had a season ticket for the family and there was no wait to enter.
The light show was impressive and is the most memorable aspect of the festival. There were contained bonfires in several locations which provided warmth and fun. We enjoyed live musical entertainment, a trio playing Johnny Cash songs. There were food vendors and areas to sit; also toys and mementos for sale. My grandson loved the cotton candy because sugar was spun around a wand containing multi-colored lights.
We didn't see many animals, but there were special displays: life-size camels to sit on, located near real camels; and videos projected onto waterfalls over a pond; and some small animals viewable in rooms. It was very cold and we decided to leave, so we may have missed many displays.
We had to pay for food in one line before obtaining it in another line. Luckily other customers in the food lines told us so we didn't waste time waiting in the wrong line

Eyup Ensar Ozgoren — Google review
This zoo has some very nice and well designed animal areas which allow for coming very close to the animals and they feel really comfortable with it, which is quite unique. The animals all looked really well, and the zoo is very clean.
A weird thing is that there is a rollercoaster in the park as well as a 4D experience which feels a bit random but was still fun.
There was also a crazy amount of places in the park where you could sit and eat. As in, almost more places to eat than animal enclosures in the zoo overall.
Still a very nice park and a good price for entrance. Would definitely visit again!

They maybe have fewer animals. But the whole experience makes it amazing. The details around each zone. They have a boat ride, role coaster, a safari trip, 4D movie.

Went here with a group of friends and we spend our entire day here, until they literally closed. They are not that many animals, but quite a few and the experience in general was very nice. The animals are treated well and have proper living conditions. Although there weren’t as many animals as I’m used to see in a zoo, I am very happy that I went here. All the decorations were very nice. The walking paths were decorated with trees and plants. Most of the animals walk around freely in some parts, so you can literally walk through their habitat. There were also goats and donkeys that you could pet. Not only do you have animals, there’s also a mini boat tour and a 4D movie. Unfortunately not everything was open since the weather was pretty bad and there weren’t many people visiting, but I would definitely visit again.

Fantastic park to visit year around. Not only are the animal enclosure settings beautiful but also spacious. In addition, there is a roller coaster and an indoor jungle cruise in the park.
There are plenty of places to sit, eat and WC.
The best restaurant is inside the jungle area near the jungle cruise. I don't recommend Momma's restaurant. The cheesburgers with bbq sauce are overpriced and terrible tasting. 😫

I loved my visit to Wildlands! I loved the animals and I was lucky enough that most animals were outside and well visible. There were also a few young animals, which were very cute :) I especially enjoyed the Jungola area where you can feed a jelly cup to birds for only 1 euro a cup
My favourite part was definitely the boat ride in Jungola - it gives a great view of the elephants there (I love elephants) and it's nice that they play different audios, so you don't hear everything again when you decide to ride the boat again.
The food was honestly much better than I expected from a Zoo. In the Jungola part, we had wok for 12 euro a person, and in the Serenga part we had some burgers and fries for about 32 total. The food was pretty high quality and the price is better than I expected from zoos.
I went with my boyfriend, but I can imagine how it could be perfect for kids as well: there are plenty of child-friendly activities like rollercoasters, a climbing area, and as a large indoor playground area to name a few.
The only downside I have to mention (and which is incredibly nitpicky) is that the cohesion is lacking in Serenga and Nortica. The animals in Serenga were from all sorts of countries/continents and these were mixed together. I understand that they combine climates, but it was a bit confusing to us.

It well recommended for kids, they have a lot of activity [play ground] for kids, The design of the zoo is lovely. Unfortunately, at that time we couldnt see all the animals we want to see, such as lion or crocodile.

Wildlands is such an awesome spot. There is no end of things to do for kids, plenty of coffee spots for the parents. Playgrounds inside and out and obviously plenty of animals. The shows are also pretty interactive and interesting and not too long or too short!
We arrived at 10.20 with a 2 and 6 year old and we only left at closing time. It was a fantastic day out. Its easy to navigate too and the maps are very handy

What an amazing zoo.
The animals are so well looked after, spent a whole day here, we loved the boat ride, and the safari truck to get closer to the animals, and the bonus of the roller-coaster is just a big plus.
So many different areas to explore, a fantastic day out. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
It's the best zoo I've ever been to!
And some animals I've never been able to see before such as the polar bear, and some of the fish are amazing.
Gemimia Louisana (Monkeymadness) — Google review
Went a few years prior, and the park definitely got a lot better. You might not get the variation of exotic animals you do at more traditional zoos, but the experience at wildlands sure is better: much more thematic and nice enclosures, lots of different ways to experience the animals (like underwater viewing points) and distinctive areas. The only point of feedback I have is that there isn't a lot of information on the signs near the animals. It would be cool if there were ways, either on the signs themselves or through qr-codes, to get more information.
The Beethoven-Haus Bonn is a memorial site, museum and cultural institution that celebrates the life and work of composer Ludwig van Beethoven. The museum has one of the world's largest collections of manuscripts and music items related to the master.
Very nice place to visit. Well organized and informative. You will find a variety of Beethoven’s belongings as well as paintings and his music books and instruments. Loved it! Sadly no photos allowed inside the house.

Visiting Beethoven's house in Bonn has been a lifelong dream of mine, and it certainly did not disappoint. As a classical music lover, getting to walk the same halls where one of history's greatest composers once lived and worked was an incredible experience. The house itself is beautiful, with its classic 18th century architecture and the lush gardens surrounding it. Inside, I was amazed to see Beethoven's actual pianos, original scores, and other artifacts that gave me a glimpse into his creative genius. Though he went deaf later in life, standing in that house you could almost hear the music in the air. Getting to see where Beethoven was born and spent his formative years left me inspired and in awe of his lasting legacy. This visit is one I will cherish forever.

Small house filled with interesting tidbits on Beethoven including a unique statue made from a plaster mask while he was not very old, the string quartet instruments he was gifted, items from his daily life, facsimile scores, ear trumpets, and info on his friends, patrons, and acquaintances. I recommend doing the audio tour as it will add quite a bit of context and information to the experience. Perhaps too much. If one were to listen to every entry in the guide you'd likely be there for several hours.

Beautiful and well maintained museum. The staff is very friendly, the items are easy to get to and see, tickets could be easily bought on the spot. I visited on Dec 23 and the museum wasn’t super busy. The special exhibition opened at 11:30 a.m. (museum opens at 10 a.m.) which gave me enough time to see the rest of the house without being in rush. The whole experience took me about a hour and a half. The musical rooms are very meditative and I definitely recommend spending time listening to Beethoven’s music for a while. Pictures could be taken everywhere with exception of the Treasury room where the special exhibition was placed. A definite must-go for a professional musician!

Excellent experience, the house where a legend was born. It's very well kept, everything, every object has an explanation (historical note if you will). You can also download an app which plays the music specific to the instrument Beethoven used. You aren't allowed to take photos inside the house but there is a garden where you can click few photos. A must visit for everyone. (For students the rates are a bit lower)

Visited it on a Saturday late afternoon, overall liked the place and was able to cover it in 75 mins. It's small with ground, first and second floor. The place offers you to see different potraits of Beethoven, some of his musical instruments, letters from his family and friends, and some hearing devices. To get more info about the exhibits you can download an app. The download did not work for me inside the Haus so I went to the ticket shop again to download it.
Treasury area is only open from 11 till 14:00 or 15:00. Next to the Treasury you can go into the music room and relax there while listening to some of the famous compositions.
You can buy the tickets from the ticket amd souvenir shop opposite to the house at a normal price for 12 euros and for students 7/7.5 euros.

This was one of the main reason I travelled to Bonn. It was a nice medium sized museum full of Beethoven's personal letters, manuscripts, artifacts and instruments. What I found quite interesting was the correspondences detailing Beethoven's relationships. Download the app in the shop using their free wifi before entering the gallery so you can use the audio guide. Bring a good set of earphones (noise cancelling preferably) as its a small space and the creaky floors and many tours get quite loud over the audio guide.

After that we went to Beethoven house, the house where Beethoven was born. To buy tickets you across the street. Also if you have a backpack then you need to put it in one of the lockers. We downloaded the app which had the auto guide. Overall there is the ground floor and then 2 other floors. This museum goes over Beethovens up bringing as well as highlights the instruments he played. Nice museum, if you want to listen to everything it will take about 2 hours but we tried to listen to what we thought was noteworth so we finished within an hour. Nice to see if you are in Bonn.

I grew up with music of Beethoven, so visiting this museum was kind of sentimental for me.
Reading his letters regarding his deafness and trying the instrument that mimics his hearing was heartbreaking. He was a great man and museum was a good reminder and reflection of this.
One of its kind hanging train. The train is in service from early 1900's. An amazing engineering feat!

I was told about this suspension railway and recommended to try it. I joined at Kluse (one stop down from the main train station, next to the cinema) and grabbed a ticket - although cheap (only 1.70) I found the machine doesn't take credit card, so come prepared with coins.
The railway isn't big - only two carriages - but they are pretty frequent so if you miss one (or it's full), you don't have long to wait for the next. The carriages have been modernised: they're brightly-lit with clean seats that don't look worn in any way. Sitting at the back gives a good view down the river and along the roads during the trip, but as I tried it last evening in winter most of my trip was quite dark.
I travelled south-west all the way to Vohwinkel (the terminal stop) where it's possible to see the other carriages parked, so there's quite a few cars. I then grabbed the one on the other side and travelled back the other way.
Quite leisurely, a pretty smooth ride and fairly quick, given the age of the technology. Well worth the trip!
The UNESCO-World Heritage Site Zollverein contains a coke and coal mine that began in 1849. It is one of the most visited tourist attractions in the Ruhr region, with activities including exhibitions, concerts, and dance performances.
Well maintained, nice tour. Nice place to spend a sunny afternoon. Most of it you can visit for free. Tour is a bit rushed now, because they have to cram 2 hours into 1, but still worth it.

It is a wonderful place that has been included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Although we have a vaccination passport, we could not enter the museum because we did not have a test, but the outdoor and garden tells everything. This is what it means to protect your values. I advise. If you are going during the pandemic period, you cannot see it without a daily test and vaccination passport and mask.

Once a huge coal mine now a beautiful industrial monument in the middle of a park with museums, restaurants, playgrounds, walking and biking lanes. No entry costs except for the museums. You can easily spend the whole day.

The Zeche Zollverstein terrain has a lot to show for including a swimming pool, restaurants, shops and two museums, each requiring a ticket purchase. One is dedicated to design, while the other offers a broad spectrum of items, ranging from paintings and sculptures to rocks and artifacts displayed among the industrial spaces and machinery. The general history museum also features beautifully lit staircases, though elevators are available throughout for convenience. To enjoy a nice panoramic view of the grounds, visitors must ascend the stairs to the rooftop. There are a lot of free parking spaces, but it can get quite busy near the entrance, so arriving early is advisable. Given the extensive size of the grounds, biking is also a great option. The main downside is the poor signage throughout. It's often unclear where things are located, the pricing, and which parts belong to the museum versus separate exhibitions. For a World Heritage site, one might expect better clarity.

Wonderful experience and great museum layout. In addition, a couple of hand made shops compliment the museum area. You could easily spend many hours in the museum. The staff was friendly and helpful.

It is a very big area which is nicely planned in terms of design, style, service to show history.
You can simply touch and feel history and how the weather and the time was earlier. You can also have a guide who can explain you about the history and if you have luck to have someone with a good story telling skills then you can really enjoy the whole visit. There is also restaurant and cafe inside alongside with toilet free of charge.
The complex and buildings are distributed a wide area so you may face and see different views

Wonderful place to visit. Unfortunately, they don't have English guides on weekdays, but only on weekends. But we were able to walk around freely through the entire campus. The old coal mine, factory, and machinery looked majestic. A very beautiful place indeed. If you are around Essen, I would recommend this place to visit. And a beautiful location for your photoshoot as well.
Harikrishnan CA — Google review
An interesting Place to visit which grants you a look into the past. There is a lot to see, and tours to be taken. Whether you are young or old, want to walk a lot or not, there is something for everyone. A lot to look at, a lot to explore. You can walk around the premises and take a look at the different sites or take the bus.
There is a variety of restaurants and cafes all over the area if you get hungry or thirsty in the meantime.
There is plenty of parking so that you should easily find a spot whenever you come. Alternatively the site is easily to reach by public transport.
Overall if you are interested in the industrial times you should definitely give this place a visit when you are around.
Julian — Google review
What an amazing place of industrial heritage. One can only try to imagine this site bustling with activity, 8000 people on site and the noise and smell and dust and dirt. All this started by Franz Haniel to mine the black gold. We benefited from a well informed tour guide who helped to bring this to life, highly recommended since this gives you access to buildings equipped with sound and video installations.
Marc Willuhn — Google review
Informative and well designed museum about the Ruhr area. The museum includes a great viewpoint of the surrounding area and a socio-historic overview of the area. Only reason why it isn't 5 stars is because it felt a bit propagandistic as the environmental impact of the mining industry was barely mentioned. Regardless it is still worth a visit.

Very nice museum, the workers are polite and they have app which has language options to explain everything to you. 3 different time zone museums and extra football museum. From my taste, you should directly go downstairs 12m start with the history (past) museum, i find that s more interesting. In present section lot of photos and not useful information just items. It has wifi and toilet everywhere. For child under 5 age, student whose under 25 its FREE. So enjoy
Maral Od — Google review
The tickets fares are rather confusing. We went on a day where the Red dot Museum was closed. So we only visited the Rhur Museum.
I recommend the fare that includes the permanent, the special, and the temporary exhibition. As you have to walk and travel up and down the many floors inside the museum on both sides. There is a rooftop for taking pictures of the monument. But only stairs. Each floor they check if you have the correct ticket so I recommend you take the all-included one as you walk a lot up and down the stairs.
Permanent exhibition is about history of the industrial complex and collections. The temporary exhibition is currently about football.

I absolutely loved walking around here, an amazing place, the scale of the factory is mind blowing. Chances are if you’re near here you’re heading for the Ruhr museum, if so definitely take the time to visit this site it’s right opposite the museum you won’t be disappointed. Was very quiet when I visited in November but I’m certain it gets busier when the weather is not so cold

I love this place and can relate to it to be an UNESCO world heritage. It's absolutely impressive and stunning. As a German I didn't even know what was here to see. Dimensions are huge and the industrial style to me looks surreal. I will definitely come back to see more and make a guided tour. There is a lot of industrial history here.
Signal Iduna Park is the renowned home stadium of Borussia Dortmund FC, boasting a seating capacity exceeding 80,000 for league matches and over 65,000 during European tournaments. This remarkable stadium offers an enjoyable tour experience to visitors while featuring a friendly staff that provides exceptional hospitality. The breathtaking edifice stands out as one of the most impressive stadiums globally with its stunning evening view and spectacular Yellow Wall features.

Great stadium, really acoustic, good connection to the railway station (U-45 goes directly), very organized for supporters, both home and visitors. Plenty of turnstiles to get it, but it's still advisable to come earlier to the game, since 81.000 is a lot of fans

Incredible atmosphere! For my first time at a German football match, I couldn’t have imagined how good the atmosphere is. Stadium is super tall, which adds to the feel of the place, plus deafening chants from the ultras. Could not recommend visiting more, and I would defiantly pay to go again. Beer is also not a rare sight, which adds even more to the enjoyment of the match.

This is the best football ground for atmosphere in Western Europe. Although there are better grounds in terms of facilities or more modern ones for comfort, none of them can beat Signal Iduna Park. Fans are fantastic throughout the whole match, beer is amazing, getting to the ground is easy by trams, can get packed going out but still you will be out in a matter of minutes. The official store at the ground is massive. All being said, you must visit! There are plenty of fans coming from the nearby countries also.

Best stadium in the world. Nothing as good as standing in the Südtrubüne/Yellow Wall.
The only bad thing is the stewards let people stand on the stairs. This makes getting up and down almost impossible, especially with beers in hand. Sadly I was tripped and all my beers spilled because of this.

The Schnoor Quarter is a historically rich neighborhood located in the heart of Bremen, Germany. The narrow alleyways and century-old buildings are reminiscent of medieval times, and make for a picturesque outing. There are also several shops and cafes located here, perfect for a relaxing afternoon or evening.
An absolutely beautiful and old part of Bremen. The Schnoor is my favourite part of this city. Here you can see some very cute and narrow streets. In the area you can find, handcraft shops, coffee shops, and restaurants. Bremen's oldest district is a must visit for anyone visiting Bremen.

A pleasant walk between small houses painted in colors and having some small ornaments, sculptures, statues in between. It's the details that make it interesting, but you should also dive in the small street leading from central square/Roland to the river. It also has interesting surprises.

The time spent here was amazing. It was like I've travelled through time. The narrow cobblestone path and beautiful tiny buildings of medieval architecture makes this place the attraction of Bremen.

The Erlebnis-Zoo Hannover is a zoo located in Hannover, Germany that features a variety of animals from around the world. The zoo has a well-maintained breeding program for elephants and has a wide variety of animal habitats, including an area dedicated to winter activities.
Great place to visit. You have to plan such as you have a whole day to spend in the zoo. You can see a variety of animals and birds from across the globe. Good place to visit with family and kids. It is pet friendly. There are cafes, children's play areas, gift shops and toilets inside the zoo. There is boating through a water canal and it was a nice experience. The seal show was also good. Over all it was a great day
Arathi Variar — Google review
Beautiful zoo. Very natural animals, fit, well-groomed. Prices in the upper range with 70 euros for 3 people. The employees were consistently friendly. Parking was a 5 minute walk away. The playground is an absolute must for the children, so make sure you plan enough time! And in any case, DO NOT leave the zoo without having an ice cream 🍦 It tastes fantastic.
Aakash Christ — Google review
This zoo was such a disappointment. If you expect a serious conservational effort and educational experience, this is not the place for you. It is more of a thematic animal enclosure experience geared towards children amusement. Mini theme park for kids. They lack staff, and the animals lack proper climate controlled enclosures. They have a whole section dedicated to safari animals, and either they were hiding from the cold so you didn't see them at all, or they were huddled together shivering. It was a really sad sight; much pity for the animals.
Definitely don't visit during winter. Even in summer I'd think twice.. Fortunately the staff were kind enough to issue a refund.

This is a beautiful zoo! One of the best zoos I have seen so far. My favorite part of the zoo was the farm area. There is a huge jungle gym at the end of the zoo. My son had so much. I was able to spend the day here with my family and I can't wait to go back next time we are in town.

Zoo was amazing the animals seemed very happy and lively. You could even step into the inclosure with some animals.
The seal show was really worth the watch.
Spent a really long time here a whole day affair.
Not many restaurants open during the winter season so bring food!
Boat ride was a really addition

Just an amazing zoo, the best one I’ve ever been! I have spent 5 hours there and still didn’t see everything, you must plan a whole day for it. The highlight of it is lion’s family with 3 cubs (born 20.02.2023). They were so cute playing with each other, their mom and even serious father. I just could not leave the spot watching them for half an hour. Unfortunately the glass you are watching through is scratched and opposite sun made it even worse to look and make pictures, but they were so close, just few meters away. Amazing experience! I liked thematically made zones, never seen something like that in other zoo’s. They have feeding hours for animals so you could watch and they tell you some facts about animals but unfortunately only in German. All signs and information are in German too. People say the price 27 euro is expensive but I think it’s totally worth it and you can actually have much cheaper price (15 euro) if you book few weeks in advance through internet. Must see in Hannover!

I was disappointed as I felt I didn’t get my money’s worth. Most animals were either too far or in hiding. Cafes were closed and the boat ride was under maintenance. The zoo isn’t a handicapped friendly place at least for me personally.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting the Hannover Zoo, and I must say it was an incredible experience! The zoo is beautifully designed, with spacious and well-maintained enclosures that provide a comfortable habitat for the animals.
One thing that really impressed me about the Hannover Zoo is their commitment to conservation.
The variety of animals at the Hannover Zoo is truly remarkable. From majestic big cats to playful primates, there's something to captivate visitors of all ages.
In terms of facilities, the Hannover Zoo is well-equipped. There are several restaurants and snack bars throughout the park, offering a variety of refreshments and meals.
Overall, I highly recommend a visit to the Hannover Zoo. It's not only a wonderful place to see a diverse range of animals up close. The dedication of the staff, the beautiful surroundings all contribute to an unforgettable experience.

Wonderful experience! We went on a Tuesday morning when it was not very crowded. There were groups of school children with their clipboards, studying different animals- that was pretty cool.
But, the zoo has a varied collection of animals, with some bot very common to zoos. They also had a petting area with cows and goats and sheep.
The Polar Bears are a beauty to watch.

Very nice zoo with good parking possibility, restaurants and play grounds for children are available. The boat ride is amazing and in weekends, it may have around 15 minutes waiting time, which not that much, but worth to do it. For someone leaving around hannover, buying the annual ticket is better than the day ticket.
Thrill & family rides in amusement park with themed areas, plus huge, wooden roller coaster.
Fantastic experience just amazing time to spend a day there. After pandemic this amusement park is now open to public and masks are not compulsory but recommended. There is attraction for all ages. The adventure rides are very well designed and safety seats on each one is very firm and secure so one need not panic when seated inside any of those rides. Ticket prices are reasonable and you also get and yearly pass if one is interested.
Overall it's a very good location to spend a day which is less than an hour drive from Hamburg.

I really want to give a five star. One star minus is simply because it’s not enough time for a big amusement park like this. 6 o’clock in the evening is too early to close! Ideally 10. Maybe 8? Otherwise it’s a perfect family attraction. We had a five year boy with us and we didn’t take a break except lunch and an ice cream. Still we didn’t have time for everything we wanted to do. Please if possible in the future extend the opening hours. Thank you!

Cute park and one really great roller coaster. The wooden roller coaster was the best. All others were rather short and didn't meet my expectations. Still happy that we visited, it's a great park, just doesn't compare to Europapark or American theme parks. If you lower your expectations, you'll have a great time.
Mostly, it bothered me that the rides were so incredibly short, most were about one minute or less. Still, as I said, great park for a day trip or family trip, just don't compare it with the big parks or rides elsewhere.

There is many options for kids above the age of 12 years (and above 140cm) for smaller children it is a bit restricted, bit there are still a few fun rides.
My favourite are
1. Scream free fall tower.
2. Krake (Roller coaster) good adrenaline rush even if a bit short.
2.flug der dämonen
3. Colossus
4. Desert race
For smaller kids
1. Wildwasserbahn
2. Indie-blitz

Located on the Elbe River, Hamburg is Germany's second-largest city and its largest port. The harbor is home to four large container terminals and many smaller warehouses and ships berths. Cruise ships dock here for tours of the city's sights.
I took a boat tour of the Port of Hamburg and it was a fascinating experience. I saw giant cargo ships, observed the loading and unloading operations.
Overall, I highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in seeing the Port of Hamburg up close.

An impressive place to go to see Hamburg, couldn’t see much due to the snow but it still looked beautiful and was a really enjoyable experience! Highly recommend if you are visiting Hamburg

Nice place to get a good view of the harbour, very close to the Elbtunnel.
Go there when the weather is clear.

The highlight of this trip is not the viewpoint but the tunnel itself. The viewpoint to Elbe tiver has great scenery though.
This reminds me to Bosphorus in Istanbul, similar view but Elbe river connected to the port which have more bigger ships and cruises. I think the port is the one connected to Stavanger and Bergen.

Is an interesting visit, after the tunel you have the view from the other side of the Elbe river. I recomend doing it during spring or summer though. It can be quite windy
Stephanie Rueda — Google review
A bit crowded, but it was mid-day, so expected. Open 24hrs for pedestrians so if you want to see it empty go at 04.00hrs.
Still... spectacular turn of the (last) century engineering.
Currently under refurbishment.

The best place to the get the most amazing view and experience of the Old Elbe Tunnel. German technology at its beautiful best since 1911. Free entry. Great concept for walking and cycling incorporated.

What a great view of the city. It's next to the exit of the Elben tunnel. You can have a baverage or snack from one of the two sellers here. Being there with my friend during last Eastern. We've met local fellow here and we chat a little about living in this city. It was definitely the best piece of the Hamburg taste.

Or was a unique experience walking 450meters under the sea level in the tunnel originally constructed in 1911😍. Going up and down in such huge lifts is cool😇. The view of the port on Elbe on the other side of the tunnel is just wow. 😘

The better part of visiting the Alte Elb tunnel. There is food, beverage, places to sit and enjoy the view of Elbe and Hamburg.
The world's largest miniature railroad, Miniatur Wunderland in Hamburg, Germany, is a fascinating place to visit with its many details and scenes from different parts of the world. The exhibits are carefully detailed and often include special effects such as fire trucks putting out fires or skiers descending the Swiss mountain.
Absolutely amazing! Good for both kids and adults to visit. The level of detail required to create these structures must have taken countless hours. You can take all the time you need here to admire the intricacies.
After you gain entry, head up to the top floor and start your journey! You'll be able to experience both day and night scenes which will be simulated periodically. More cities are in development so definitely visit again next time.

Fantastic mini land!
The level of detail and small surprises everywhere is astounding!
You could definitely spend a whole day and just discover new things.
You can even have a look at their workshop where they paint and assemble everything.
Be sure to buy tickets and book well in advance because it's a hot spot in Hamburg with many visitors.
Well worth a visit.

I had an unforgettable visit to Miniature Wunderland in Hamburg last weekend! This place offers a truly unique experience with meticulously detailed miniatures representing various cities worldwide, predominantly European ones. The highlight for me was the intricate train networks and the miniature airport with planes taking off and landing. It was a bit crowded, but the 20 euro adult ticket was worth every penny. The presence of miniature shops, a food court, and restroom facilities made the visit even more convenient. Miniature Wunderland is a must-see attraction for anyone in Hamburg!

Super cool! you could spend the whole day here and still not have seen everything. The staff are very friendly and the bistro is a nice place to rest. You can tell a lot of hard work and creativity went into the design of all the exhibits and there are hidden gems everywhere, including trains running right below your feet!

This place is truly a marvel, even if you're not a model making fan.
All the models are crafted with exceptional detail and they're full of buttons for the whole visiting experience to turn from passive to interactive at will.
On the other side, the place feels very touristy, with souvenir shops packed with unrelated stuff, and a "restaurant" too. Too much people can ruin your experience, and a Saturday evening would not be the perfect day to be there.

Such an extraordinary experience! I'm amazed 👏🏻. Every detail, every city, everything is just perfect. I was not expecting so much from this place and was absolutely positively surprised. Great job! Honestly, I think adults enjoy more than kids, as we can appreciate more the details... but it is a nice place for all ages. It is a must in Hamburg for sure! Better to buy the tickets in advance.

Just wow !!! It's an amazing museum. So much to see and be amazed. We spent around 4 hours seeing all the models. The best was the airport and airplane model. It's wonderful place to get kids and even the old ones enjoy the museum. There are many different models. Buying tickets in advance is highly recommended. There is a restaurant as well in the museum. Breakfast and lunch options were good. I recommend booking tickets for the morning slot so that you have enough time to explore the whole museum.

Parking is very restrictive in this area so you are better parking away and walking to the place. The cafe served really nice food and all the staff were polite. The models themselves were very impressive especially with how they interlink. The railway control room is also very impressive.

Cost 20.50 for an adult ticket.
A great place to spend a couple of hours. Be amazed by the displays.
There is a simulation of day and night views of all the displays.
The airport seems to be the most popular. I had a wonderful visit.
There is a canteen within the museum. So one can rest and have a bite before continuing.

Nice spot. It took us around 2 hours to see the whole thing. The cost is 20 euro per person, which is interesting to see but, in my opinion, not a must. We went on Sunday, and it was packed it was hard to get near to the expositions to look closely
Andrea Caballero — Google review
Simply amazing! Was a fun experience. The amount of details is crazy. Also, the whole exhibition is interactive so you’ll get engaged as soon as you start your visit. I’d recommend getting the tickets beforehand because the place gets crowded. It has interesting exhibitions already but they’ll add more soon and I bet it’ll be just as great. You can easily spend 3 hours there. And you’ll enjoy it! They offer guided tours so you can see everything from a different perspective.

I had high expectations.
Thought the models would be larger. They are h0 scale, so 1:87
The models and figures are mind blowing.
The detailed models of structures and landscapes around the world are magnificent. By gazing at the tremendous level of detail one gets a true sense of the scale of human activity on earth. The scale and vastness of our environmental impact.
One could spend all day there.
Amazzzing.
Will definitely go back.

Absolutely astonishing, there’s a million adjectives I could say about this place and I can’t seem to find a word for this masterpiece. The first sections were gorgeous the rooms are air-conditioned and that but also the details of every single man in the huge miniature model of Hamburg,Switzerland,Austria and the alps is living. I can visually guess that about 89 percent of all models is movable. Every aspect of the model including underground and above in the sky is shown in full detail. The posters for example are always made in local languages going with the theme.
The most outstanding part for me was the airport (since I am a huge avgeek myself) the details as I can see is stringent to a almost horrible level. The airplanes are just so lively as if they were real. Almost every model plane can taxi by itself and a lot of them can even takeoff and land by them self even with features such as gear-tilt included. There’s also the airbus beluga, Junker 52, Boeing 777-300 ER etc.
I would say that the this place is really really really worth your visit because you can feel the heart of the builders, you can feel that they build for the fun, not for the money!
Please, if you every happened to read this. Go to Hamburg and visit this place. Bucket-list worthy!

Every time I am in Hamburg I visit this place, and it never fails to impress me. There are always some new details I get go notice, or completely new set-ups to explore (like South America this time, Monaco is now work in progress). Make sure to buy the ticket in advance and there is almost no waiting time. Also, make sure to devote enough time, as you can easily spend here whole day! ✨

It’s beautiful, it’s mesmerizing, you’d have to spend at least two full days there to discover most of the little details. I’ve been here at least 8 times, and I keep finding new things every single time. However, the place is always completely filled with people, no matter what day it is. I HIGHLY recommend purchasing your tickets online at least one week before, to have a chance at getting in at a normal time. Unless of course you want to stand in a queue for 5 hours, not gonna judge that.

Amazing 🤩 has been on my bucket list for many many years, I did 2 back stage tours. In total I spent about 10 hours here! And I'm sure there were lots of little details I still didn't see. The food in the diner is very reasonably priced and is large servings!
Overall very satisfied. This place is amazing.

Such an AMAZING place! They even had a control center. Was so mesmerized by the amount of detail they put in all the cities. The airport with all the planes taking off and everything else happening there made it feel like it was connected to a real airport. The historic dioramas were really interesting too - being able to see how things changed over time. Definitely had a great time here and will be back again next time.

We went here as a family and had a very enjoyable time. I recommend you schedule a whole day here. We spent 5 hours here. There are plenty of different countries on view including Germany,Italy, America and Switzerland. If you look closely there are many hidden jokes like the millennium falcon at the airport and Batman and Robin scaling one of the buildings. We also did the virtual reality part of the tour which was amazing. You can also have a 3D picture taken which you can have as a plastic figure. Loved it.

Incredible place with extremely detailed models. The are some awesome experiences there too, like shrink into wonderland were you where a VR headset and you can pretend your in the models. There is a cafeteria with decent food especially for a museum. The gift shop is quite nice and reasonably priced. I would recommend buying tickets in advance as buying at the museum can take awhile, it is conveniently located in the center of Hamburg. The airport and trains are just beautiful, if you took a zoomed in picture someone would have no idea it was a model. Even the hall between sections has some lovely miniature landscapes, and a great view.

Completely, totally and utterly brilliant in every way. Spent over 6 hours there and only saw one of the two main floors. Exceptionally good value. Excellent proper food in the bistro - lots of seats and sockets to recharge phones etc. Again, great value. All facilities excellent. The whole place is just superb - can't fault it in any way. Best to book ahead - and try to go as early as possible.

We started exploring at 8 a.m., and we were there until after 5 p.m!
It's a totally different experience compared to anything else, and if you have a passion for details and digging into them, you're gonna love it!
Suggestions for the best experience:
1. Charged Phones
2. Bottle of Water
3. Eat good breakfast, so you're full for the day
4. Wear comfortable shoes
5. Bring some nuts with you so you don't have to waste for lunch
6. Take your glasses if you have trouble seeing tint things in distance :)
7. Patience and passion ❤️

Great experience!! Wish we had known how big and nice it was, we would have given ourselves more time. We arrive 23:30, since those were the only tickets available. Pls book well in advance to get a better time! Even at 23:30 it was still amazing. Just wish we had more time, there was so much to see and do. They had buttons for many of the things where something would happen. Also the light changes in intervals from daylight to nighttime and some of the buttons only work in nighttime. Super cool! If ever we’re in Hamburg again, we would definitely go for either half a day or the whole day.

Fabulous place to visit! Image a warehouse FULL of train sets, over multiple floors and now add cars, trucks, planes, not only trains. Amazing! There’s a “night time” every 15 minutes or so where all the lights go down it looks stunning.
The level of detail here is unreal, so many hours have gone into creating this.
The gift shop is also very good, which is a nice change from most tourist attractions.
C Jason — Google review
A must see when in Hamburg, completely worth it.
I recommend you buy tickets 2 days in advance to avoid the waiting queue which can be even 2h long.
It was kind of crowded however we managed to go trough it all, make sure you grab a map at the entrance.
They have a setup where it turns to "night time" and some of the exhibits look better during that short time window.
The airport exhibit was my favorite so pay attention to the landing and take off screen if you are looking for a particular model to see it in action.
Make sure to visit the souvenir shop before you exit as they always have discounts on models.
The entire visit may take arround 3h, even more.

Miniature Wonderland is great, wide space with many miniatures - people, situations (like concerts), airplanes, trains, city, Hamburg areas and many others. For kids and adults. Amazing attention to details. Must see point during visiting Hamburg.

The place was quite huge and so detail! Great place to go for diorama fans & those with children, you could truly spend hours here. My family and I spent about 4 hours, including shopping time.
The only flaw was it was charged €0.50 for cloakroom per item (we didn’t use this) and there were no info about the locker room which was free. But overall was enjoyable and could be considered when you plan to visit Hamburg.
Autostadt in Wolfsburg is a must-visit destination for car enthusiasts and families alike. This automobile museum offers a fascinating display of the history of Volkswagen, featuring an impressive collection of vintage cars alongside new vehicle parking towers. Visitors can also enjoy driving tracks, shops, and restaurants within the park. Additionally, Autostadt provides a unique experience for families with designated play areas and activities for kids.
Autostadt in Wolfsburg is an absolute must-see for anyone who loves cars or technology. From the moment you arrive, you are immersed in a world of automotive innovation and history.
The Car Tower is a true highlight of the Autostadt experience. It is a breathtaking 50-meter-tall glass structure that houses over 400 new cars, and the views from the top are absolutely stunning. You'll get a panoramic view of the surrounding area and a chance to see all of the latest Volkswagen models up close.
But the fun doesn't stop there. Autostadt also has a test track where you can try out different Volkswagen models for yourself, a pavilion that displays historic and concept cars, and a theater that presents films about the history of the automobile. It is truly a one-of-a-kind experience that you won't find anywhere else.
And if you get hungry, don't worry - Autostadt has a number of restaurants, cafes, and shops to choose from. It is a great place to spend a day out, whether you are a local or just visiting.
Overall, Autostadt is an absolute must-see destination. It is a unique and interactive experience that is sure to impress and educate visitors of all ages. Don't miss out on this amazing opportunity to learn more about the world of automobiles!

Overall the auto stat as a interesting place for any car enthusiasts to go to. For the most part the show pieces were incredible and very interesting Information. Though I have to say the Volkswagen building essentially a dealership in something that you're paying to experience. Essentially paid advertisement. But other that part at the end I'd say it was a pretty good experience!

We love the Autostadt. If you live in or around Wolfsburg and have kids you should definitely get an annual pass. They have special events during the summer and winter holidays. There are lots of great restaurants, albeit quite expensive. And there is a large play hall for kids where they can also do arts and crafts- perfect for those winter days when you don’t feel like going to a cold playground.
For us the cars are just a nice decoration!

Amazing experience! You can spend the whole day there. There are various attractions you can see such as the 2 big towers that are house for over 400 cars, the museum full of car history and amazing cars throughout the years, and many other car brands.
There are more than 1 restaurant that you can enjoy a quick bite in during your tour. The place also offers many cozy outdoor seating areas between the trees. And don't forget to end your day with an amazing experience on the large slides!

The cost for the entrance ticket is high.. and the museum is the one thing thats worth on going for. The other places is not museum, its only sales location.
The whole place is a bit confusing too. Prices for food is a bit higher than rest of germany.
Compared to MB & Porsche museum in Stuttgart this is not worth coming for. The price for 2 people is almost the same as the two museums in stuttgart.
Big nice places for a walk, but i dont think i would come back again for it.

You can spend all day there. You can buy food and drinks. Organized parking (we payed 4€ for 2 hour) , the employees are kind. We had a lovely time in Autostadt. In addition, the shopping complex is within walking distance. You can cross the bridge directly to the complex and vice versa (the parking cost 2€ for 2 hour).

Been there twice with friends. If you are a car lover, you should definitely visit this place. Friendly personnel who will try to help you if you need it. In the Vag Group show centers you can sit in all the cars, no one will kick you out. We also took a tour of the factory and used the lift to the top floor of one of the two towers. It was cool.
I advise you to book tickets to the factory and to climb the towers in advance, there is always a queue.
I will definitely come back.

Pretty cool place if you like cars. It also seems quite entertaining for kids, as they had a small ice skating ring outside and quite a few interactive activities in some buildings.

A great place for not just car lovers, but the whole family.
We visited in December and they had Christmas markets (1400-2200), ice rink and snow park. Great vibe to the place and the service was top notch.
We booked the tower tour and factory tour, however unfortunately our factory tour was cancelled. Still, the tower tour was excellent and we looked through the museum and each "podium" for the various VAG brands, Porsche being the best imo. Bugatti and Lamborghini podiums were closed, however there was still plenty to see and do.
The zoo Leipzig is one of the oldest and most modern zoos in Europe. It boasts a large variety of animals from 850 different species, all in naturalistic habitats. In addition to its animal exhibits, the zoo has conservation programs to help protect endangered species.
The zoo was beyond my expectations! It is definitely one of the best things to do in Leipzig after the self ride boating experience. The zoo has all kinds of animals from bears, lions, monkeys, chimps, aquarium, giraffe, Zebra, Rhino, tropical rainforest experience to most of the well known and a few almost extinct animals one would want to see.
The ticket was 22 euros per person which is definitely worth the money. Plan to spend at least 4-5 hours in the zoo. If you are an animal enthusiast then you might need minimum 5-6 hours

Beautiful Zoo.
It was a rainy day. Perfect because it wasn too crowded.
Parking: The best place to park is in the parking garage directly opposite the entrance. Good and not too expensive.
Food: Everywhere in the zoo there is the possibility to eat and drink something. I can recommend the restaurant at the giraffe enclosure with a view of giraffes and zebras.
The large cafe is really big and tastes very good.
I recommend to take some water with you because the prices for food and drink are sometimes high

Definitely worthy of visiting. Don't regret the decision at all. The aquarium was wonderful. Saw most of the animals as we sticked to the route on map. The boat trip was out of the world experience and was worth 2 euros more. Overall a happy feeling to have visited here.

Probably the best zoo in Europe. Since my first visit, they have been improving the older parts of the zoo and now it's almost fully renewed with modern enclosures.
It can be very crowded, even on workdays.
Themed areas are correct and well balanced, not looking too artificial or like a theme park.
Don't miss the pangolins at the underground floor of the elephant house ;)

Leipzig Zoo has a decent variety of animals, and some exhibits were enjoyable. However, my experience was not so good as several animals were missing during my visit. Moreover, the food prices were very high and the overall atmosphere felt too crowded. Improvement in these areas would significantly enhance the visitor experience.
As per my experience the aquarium and Tropical world were amazing ....

Although a small number of animals could understandably not be seen in the outdoor enclosures due to the cold and snowy winter weather, the beautifully and creatively laid out zoo still contained a much wider variety of species to see than I had anticipated.

One forgets within 30 minutes that they are in the city or even in a zoo. If the visiting route is followed, you will have the most enjoyable trip. Gondwanaland must be visited both by walking and by boat. You can bring food and drink with you, there are enough suitable places. There is a great transportation and parking place, whether by car or by bus, train or tram. Right across the entrance door, you can also lock your bike next to the closed parking lot. In the zoo, which consists of 6 different concepts, you really live every part of it to the fullest. The most beautiful zoo I've ever seen. Especially in the tropical park, a boat tour should be done.

I was incredibly impressed with this zoo. I’ve been to multiple zoos in North America and Australia and this one was the most impressive. I couldn’t get over how incredible the tropical building was, and just how BIG it was! The prices were also very reasonable, and food inside was not too overly expensive. I could easily have spent an entire day just exploring half of this wonderful zoo.

The layout and theming of this zoo is excellent and at times it felt more like a theme park (especially in Gondwanaland). Food prices and availability is good, even on a busy day, and the enclosures are far more creative than places like Berlin. Admittedly we did struggle to see some of the animals at times, particularly the monkeys who were hidden in their huge enclosures. I’ll definitely go back, though next time not on a public holiday.
Tom Beck — Google review
Our family spent the day at the Zoo! It was such a wonderful time! Walking through Gondwanaland was a highlight! Definitely recommend checking it out! :)
The only negative thing is, on crowded days, the pathways are so narrow that it makes for a bit of closterfobic experience (especially the path through Pongoland). Other than feeling packed in, we had a great time there!

Nice Zoo Garden very accesibile, just a short walk from Center. I visited it a few years back and I liked it more then. Maybe now it has more fast food places and less animals, or maybe they were just hidden or taking a break. Plenty of space for animals, very natural environment and you have to be lucky to be in the right place and the right time to see the animals. I liked also the Amazonian place. Enjoyed Leipzig, clean and full of nice places to see. Good food and drinks. Zoo and parks are a big plus.

The Leipzig Zoo is truly an amazing place to visit. It’s not just big; it’s incredibly expansive, offering a wide variety of animal exhibits and attractions to explore. Whether you’re a nature enthusiast or just looking for a fun day out with family or friends, this zoo has something for everyone.
One piece of advice I’d like to share is that if you plan to visit more than once or think you might return in the future, it’s definitely worth considering an annual pass. Buying a yearly ticket can be more cost-effective than paying for admission on a per-day basis, especially if you want to take your time to fully enjoy everything the zoo has to offer. It’s a great way to support the zoo and ensure you can return whenever you please.

My highlight of the zoo is the tropical boat trip. Highly recommended, it's only 2€per person. You feel like you are in the tropical rainforest, and the sound of nature is unbelievable. There is a small tree bridge to walk above to see overall of this jungle. Also a nice restaurant for you to sit and relax and be with nature hearing birds and other animals. Other parts of the zoo are very nice too, especially the big restaurant where you can see the animals walking around you.

Leipzig Zoo wasn't just a zoo visit, it was a tropical escape! The meticulously landscaped tropical gardens transported me to rainforests teeming with life. The boat trip for 2 euros was an absolute must, offering a tranquil journey.
While food options were limited. Though I missed the vibrant world of parrots, the aquarium was a stunning spectacle.
Overall, Leipzig Zoo was a diverse and exciting adventure, especially for those who love the tropics. The tropical gardens were the star, offering a unique and immersive experience. Highly recommended!

The Leipzig Zoo is great.
There is a wide variety of animals from all over the world.
In addition to the animals, there are other attractions such as guided walks and children's games.
I was fascinated that the Zoo was divided into different regions of the world.
The Monument to the Battle of the Nations in Probstheida neighbourhood is a huge temple of death commemorating the 1813 battle when Austrian, Russian, Swedish and Prussian forces came together to defeat Napoleon. The imposing memorial site features carvings, statues and inscriptions and reflects its reflection in the lake of tears.
Beautiful, but must take ~320 steps to reach to the top of the building, the path and steps can be narrow.
But you can get a good town view from the top.
Must visit landmark while you in Leipzig:)
We went on a weekend just right after opening at 10am- less crowded & peacefully explored, around 11-12pm we saw big crowd coming.

If you're in the area and interested in history - visit this one!
It cost me 10€ entry, and then I headed inside. There's a lift, but if you want to truly see everything, you cannot avoid the stairs. Overall there are about 500 of them, but as I combined lift with stairs, I climbed about 250, I guess.
The view from the top is nice, but the one from the Panorama Tower in the city is way better.

I enjoyed this monument more than I thought I would. The big statues reminded me of ancient statues. The acoustics inside are pretty good. The whole experience is maze-like, going up the narrow stairways. The views at the top are great. Remember to get your ticket below, before you climb the stairs to the entrance.

One of the best places I have ever visited, so breathtaking and ancient. And the museum is so beautiful but the thing that's most beautiful about this place is the view from the top of the monument, absolutely otherworldly.

Very beautiful. Paying just €10 (€8 for students) you can go up to the very top of the monument climbing 500 steps in narrow spaces, the tiring way is totally worth it the view! Furthermore you can enter in the museum nearby and see ancient exhibits from the battle of nations.

I liked the museum very much. Leipzig is a must-see museum. It is a very impressive and explanatory museum. Germany's confrontation with its war history has been very effective. He should learn such lessons. I recommend it to anyone who visits Leipzig. It is a worth seeing place. The interior of the monument should definitely be visited. If you want to capture beautiful photo frames, I recommend you to visit it in the afternoon.

Very peaceful to visit. It feels like a very secular monument to the Prussian people who endured Napoleon’s invasion. It take peace time to build such a monument. Unfortunately the peace time would not last with the start of World War 1 and the damage is from World War 2.
In the United States we are letting our World War 1 monuments crumble and allowing capitalism to take over our sense of duty. A concept most Americans can not grasp, but something Germans understand. This is a place of mourning but today it is a place to enjoy life with families.

This monument is in a beautiful, historical location and is still incredibly large and well-kept. You are welcome to go there and explore it with your friends and family. Visit on a sunny day.

very nice monument with stunning view on top although it is a tiring climb, you could use a lift but you still have to climb about 150 steps of stairs to reach the top. there is also a museum next to it which is included in the ticket.

I must say the monument was very impressive. Entrance was 10 euros with an extra 2 euros for the audio guide. I would recommend that you take the audio guide as it gives you so much more information. The audio guide is available in English. There are 350 plus steps to get to the top but the views of Leipzig are spectacular. The museum covers the battle itself. This is where the audio guide really does come into it's own. It gives a view from the people that lived in Leipzig at the time of the battle and explains some of the exhibits and the reason for the battle. We spent approximately 3 hours here and another 40 minutes at cafe at the other end of the monument

One of the representative symbol of Leipzig. The height is 91 meters and it is most biggest monument in the Europe.
The closer I got to it, the more overwhelmed I was by its size and impact.
You can enter inside of the monument by 10€ per person.
On the top of the monument, you can see the overview of Leipzig. It is really amazing.
There are total 500 step to the top viewing platform.On the other hand, the elevator is settled in the monument and you can access by 2/3 height of monument easily.
Last 50 steps of top floor is too narrow to pass through each other. Please take care and go up without haste.
(History of this monument)
This monument was constructed for Prussia and allied forces wining Napoleon's French army at Leipzig.
This war is one of the most important battles and histrionical turning point of finishing the domination of Germany by French empire.

One of the fifteen national monuments referred to as "Denkmals" this is the largest although in this authors opinion not the most impressive. Although it is impressive. If you come to Leipzig this is absolutely a must see.

A great place to see historical moments from WWI ( weapons, uniforms and buildings) which happened in Leipzig, and for sure the most that we loved about this place was the top of the building that shows the whole city around! It was breathtaking and deserves a visit!
Daniel Saada — Google review
It’s a huge architecture for a monument. A monument backed with German nationalist motivation while it was built but it’s least been memorialized now and people are more looking at the architecture.
It’s possible to get to middle viewing floor with two different lifts but the top observation deck is only accessible by very narrow and long stairs.
Timothy En Haw Chan — Google review
Very impressive building. The sheer scale of it is breathtaking. If you want to make it to the top viewing platform, be prepared for narrow staircases because the elevator does NOT go all the way to the top.
This is one of those monuments where the focus has shifted from what it commemorates to the monument itself. Most people visit it to see the building and admire its architectural design rather than think about the event for which it was built.

Absolutely stunning place!!!
A place that I recommend to visit from the bottom of my soul.
Read a bit about this place before you go to visit!!!
You don't need to book yourself, and you dont need a guide, only tickets that cost approximately 10 euros per person.
The interior is something special, with an amazing view on the whole city.
The elevator is not going all the way up, and the staircase is narrow . Be ready!

The tallest standing monument of Europe signifies the battle between Napoleon against the troops from Prussia, Austria and Sweden. The colossal monument is around 15-20min ride from the central station. To go on top you need tickets.

Monumental place with really majestic sculptures. You can go to the very top, just that the staircase is very narrow.
Few of the exhibitions were behind closed doors.

impressive, but grey mastodont. Nice trip out of the city centre. Do no hesitate to go inside.

We didn't get to go inside because of lack of time but it was really cool to see even from the outside. Something that looks so out of place in a European setting. Amazingly built. You do have to climb a bunch of stairs to go up to the main floors...for those who are physically disabled. But I think there is an elevator somewhere inside.
The Sanssouci Park is one of the most beautiful and well-preserved royal gardens in Berlin. It was created by Frederick the Great in the late 18th century and features a large park with towering trees and formal flower beds, as well as several notable buildings. The park is an excellent example of German Baroque garden design, and it's a popular tourist destination.
Very big and beautiful park with huge old buildings, thousands of sculptures, fountains. Entrance is free of charge, if you walk slowly, sit and eat, you can easily spend 4-5h. Quickly walking min 2h. Entrance into the palace costs 19Eur per adult. Also there is a nice botanical gardens inside the park

It's a nice place that is really well decorated. They charge you about 14 💶 for visiting inside.
If you're into looking at the art and history it's a good place to go to.
They provide handsets that guide you in various languages for the tour.

So big that you can walk there for hours. The scale is amazing. The buildings are majestic. The atmosphere is mesmerizing. You should also turn left or right if possible. A Chinese tea house, a greenhouse and other interesting buildings are located here

Arrived super early in the morning and proved to be such a relaxing walk. You can find many early birds jogging around the grounds or walking their dogs.
There's maps with different colored trails and even estimated times for each one but we decided to just go with the flow and fall in love with nature. Even though we went during the last week of November I'd say it was definitely worth it with an amazing autumnal vibe. Leaves were still falling and we did get some rain so make sure to also bring an umbrella!

If you are in Berlin, choose a day to visit Potsdam and the gorgeous Sanssouci Park and Palace. This is a place where history meets beauty being surounded by nature. Pic some comfortable clothes and shows as it is a big area. You will find a charming café to recharge your energy and then go on have a memorable day in this magical place. If you can, rrad about it before going as this will help you experience it in another level.

It is a big beautiful park, but all the statues were closed, probably because we went in the winter season. I would love to see it in the summer. There are palaces inside. Potsdam University is also located here.
Rudolf Prange — Google review
The park is amazing. It is easy to spend several hours there. It is very serene. The park is essentially a large forest with labyrinthine roads connecting various palaces. There is a botanical garden and tons of statues. Palaces range from very small to the New Palace of more than 200 rooms. Several palaces are open for tours and very much worth it. Single palace tickets are a few Euros, and there is a 22 Euro ticket that includes admission to all palaces in entirety.

Sansoucci Gardens or park surrounds the Palace.
The park has a big fountain at the bottom with statues at the periphery of the mountain. The statues add a lot of charm to the fountain and park.
The park has a terraced vineyard and vines are visible during summer months. Overlooking the park is the Palace on top of the hill.
One of the more visited places in Potsdam.

Beautiful baroque palace, where Feederick II lived. The whole park is enormous, it needs at least half a day to visit most of places. We entered the palace museum only. The sightseeing is amazingly well prepared, with audio tour in many languages including Polish. The ticket price of 14 € is really worth the price!

Really enjoyed my tour of the beautiful palace.
Unfortunately we didn't have the best weather so didn't see as much of the gardens as we would have liked.
We took a picnic lunch which was a good idea. Lots of pleasant places to stop and appreciate the formal gardens.
One day not really enough to see everything.

An gorgeous UNESCO protected park enjoyable in any season. Sculptures protected under wooden covers during winter until end spring. Viewable End Spring until end Autumn. NB sledding on hills not allowed when it’s snowy and no picnics on the open fields for some reason. Shame, but otherwise well worth a visit.

A visit to the Palace of Sanssouci is an experience of going back in time. The Palace is much as it was when occupied so long ago. There is an admission fee and should you be planning to also visit other sites in the area, be sure to check if there is a combined ticket.
We visited in December and one should note this was a summer palace -- there is no heat and this palace was kept as it was originally. The grounds are beautiful and we can only imagine the greater beauty during the warmer months.

Absolutely beautiful and stunning gardens, which are free. You'll have to pay to enter the castle. We only had 2 days in Berlin and were wondering if it was worth it spending our second day here and it did not disappoint.
It's about 40min way from Berlin HBF with RE1.
I didn't see any picnic table but you have many grasslands and benches.
