Really worth the time! Entertaining and informative, the displays are very well curated and the information provided keeps you interested. It’s great for children 5 and all age groups above, if you aren’t very knowledgeable you will learn a lot and if you know your WWI history you will get nice new bits and pieces. You can go through both halls in 50 minutes or less, the trenches are fun and might take 30 minutes more. The trenches require a separate ticket. There’s a nice gift-shop inside. The museum does offer guided tours, ask at the front desk.

Excellent exhibition! The interactive trench tour, well executed and really took you into the experience that it must have been. Great photos descriptions through out. Highly recommend. Phone up before you get there to book the tour and trench experience.
What can I say.. absolutely moving experience. We did the 2 guided tours and our guide was knowledgable and funny, but respectful and taught us a lot. We spent 3 hours here but could easily have spent longer.
Powerful, graphic and detailed. Amazing! Unlike anything I have ever seen, in the U.S., or anywhere. Honors the memory of those who served, and those who fell. I came away both shocked at the horror of war, and with better understanding of what it was like to be there. Very disappointing that this will be closing down. Everybody should see it at least once!
MUST DO! Amazing exhibition, won’t be there for long, we pre-booked a guided tour (45 mins) then the trench experience straight after, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and did a great job of painting a picture, loved the photos, and detail on the displays, we went down to go to a beer festival, and did this on the side... and this was the highlight of our trip to Wellington. Recommend the kids bags at just 5, full of activities and goodies. Very good value for money.
A very good exhibition detailing the history of the first world war with lifelike props. Well worth seeing.
Great. A must-to-go museum if interested in WW1.
The work done is just incredible and so real and emotional
