This is one of a kind Museum. It’s the most comprehensive and REAL exhibition you could ever experience. Seeing real life bodies, learning how our muscles, organs work is really fascinating. There is a journey you will take walking through this museum that will probably change the way you look and think at the human body. Extremely educational content. I couldn’t recommend it more. It goes from the neural system to the reproductive system, from the digestive system to the explaining the skeleton and ligaments. The museum is located just across the big screen on Piccadilly Circus. The ticket price is worth every penny. Make sure you have 3-4 hours to spare if you want to get a good understanding of how your own body works!

Inspirational, educational and fascinating exhibition. Metaphorically and literary taking the human body slicing it to its thinner layers, showing you the magnificent mechanism that we are built from. It's a must see exhibition. Takes around 2-2.5 hours.
Enjoy :)

This was really shock me when our first visited last year.
But also very organization differnt body topics.
Great time and experience.
But just FYI, this museum actually limit to take pictures of those body.

Finally got to see this world class exhibition. A bit pricey when booked on the day. Kids loved it and related back to things they had learnt at school. At one point they went missing for 5mins or so only to find out they were sitting through a presentation. Worth the visit!

Must see! 'MUST-SEE!' Discover the beauty beneath your skin at London's newest Top Attraction: BODY WORLDS,. the permanent exhibition of real human bodies in the heart of the city. Buy Tickets. Tripadvisor Top 10. astonishing close views.

I went to this exhibition around 15 years ago in Brick Lane and it was in a bigger and brighter exhibition halland there was more plastersized bodies being displayed sliced. Some of the figures there where at the present exhibition. This exhibition has more facts around the function of the human body. Certain places felt abit cramped and you have to wait to listen to your headset. Interesting place to go to, maybe abit too pricey but I preferred his first exhibition he did many years ago and maybe now it's too commercialised.
C. A.
Incredible experience! An amazingly laid out exhibition, really engaging and interesting. I would highly recommend going!!
J. B.
Amazing experience and highly recommended. Very informative and inspiring especially if you have a love for anatomy and physiology. Not for the faint hearted though as they use cadavers in the exhibitions. You get an audio guide which talks you through every exhibition and for £25 we spent nearly 3 hours there.

Saw this a long time ago when it was at the O2 ( an it was bigger) Took my current girlfriend there as she was keen to see it. She thoroughly enjoyed it , as did I , buy we both now want to go the the original one in Germany as it's soooo much bigger and it's where they plasticise the body's.
Only thing I will add, in my opinion, that the limit souvenirs in the shop felt a little overpriced....£25 for a chocolate heart 🤔
Still a good, interesting and educational few hours
C. A.
The exhibit was great and very informative but the head set liked to disconnect itself so I no longer was being told information. Some of the staff were also very rude, as I was barged out of the way but others were very nice and professional.

I visited Body Worlds London on 11th June 2019 at 5pm. It was an amazing place. They have taken extreme care for attention to detail. Every part of the human body is displayed with clear descriptions and there is an audio guide given to you to use along the way. Every body parts functions are mentioned, along with the disease it may face and the treatments for the same. The staff was very friendly and assistive. Especially Patsy was great. She is a lovely person and will ensure that your visit is great.
L. C.
It is very interesting seeing the different effects smoking, eating etc has on your body. You will easily spend 2-3 hours going round listening to the audio (via free headsets) over the 3 floors. I enjoyed it however son did get frustrated at times as it is all listening and reading. However the only downsides are it is very expensive - £50 for 1 adult and 1 child (£42 if you buy online 24 hrs before) and you have to rent a locker for £2 if you have a rucksack or large bags. (Only one small handbag can be taken round.) Perhaps the locker rental could be included in ticket price? Or kids could be free up to 8 years? Or cheaper?

"Everything you know about your boy is wrong!"
A must see knowledgable experience.
D. B.
Amazing exhibition. Eye-opening and spectacular. Would have liked a little more choice in small things to buy in the gift shop, but worth a visit!
T. m.
Very informative and well laid out. Fun and educational for all the family.
The audio guide was user friendly and easy to use. The interactive displays were a lot of fun, especially to the young ones.
There is one section which is 16+, it's well marked and secluded from the rest.
Definitely worth a visit if you are in London. It took us about 4 hours from start to finish, so if you have young ones with you, eat beforehand.
b. v.
We took our 3 boys 13,12,8 and they loved it took us 2.5hours to get around thand done the vr experience which was not what we thought it would be but overall we enjoyed the day out.
L. A.
Really interesting place if you want to learn more about anatomy. I feel this is not for everyone as you can feel bad seeing the bodies like this.
We spent 2.5hours and it could easily have been 3.5h.
We just felt very urge at the end. We were in the last room and they didn't let us finish to read as they were closing right now. So feel very pushed at the end, for the price we paid I think few more minutes would have been great. Otherwise don't let people enter after 4pm. The exhibition is really huge so you need to be fast reader as well
Also you have a sophisticated scale but it closed at 6:30pm so need to hurry as week if you want it.
You have other places to test stuff which was very nice.
But yeah, you need your time so go early in the morning or afternoon
A. S.
I was a bit unsure before visiting as I thought that it was going to be really gruesome but it wasn't. Very interesting and educational
L. J. R. B.
It is a fascinating museum. Great place to go with a couple of friends. Ideal of you like a more interactive type of museum. It is a rather expensive considering the size of it, but definitely worth going to at least once of the experience. All in all, it was really interesting and a good way to pass a couple of hours.
L. N.
Such an interesting exhibition. The website says that you can expect to stay there for around 1.5 - 2 hours, so we booked lunch nearby 2 hours after entering. Had to rush through the last 2 floors as we could have easily spent 3 or more hours looking through it all. Absolutely fascinating to learn about the human body, with the visual aid of actual human bodies. Cannot recommend this place enough. Relativity expensive to get in, but that price is absolutely justified as far as I'm concerned.
A. N.
Incredibly interesting exhibit! Really enjoyed learning about parts of the human body you wouldn't consider looking like they do or working in brilliant ways.
The audio tour that they offer is very well done, with passionate sounding voice actors keeping you engaged as you walk through.
I'd fully recommend to tourists and locals, will take a couple of hours to look round the whole thing.
C. J.
It was interesting, some interactive exhibits but could do with a few more to get visitors even more involved. Feedback from kids was shorter info for them to read with maybe some wow facts to grab attention. They have an audio description took but by the end we had all stopped using it as it went on a lot with quite a monotone voice. Everyone enjoyed the body analysing machine. Worth visiting but could be made even better. Not allowed to take photos so can't post one.
S.
Excellent Museum showcasing the human body in all it's glory. It's an experience that will make you take a step out of your normal routine and appreciate the body you are born with. All the display pieces are sufficiently illustrated and the body composition machine on level 4 is extremely insightful. Totally recommend! My girlfriend, a medic, did not want to leave and we ended up staying for just shy of three hours.
C. R.
One of the best museums in London.
The care of the bodies to create the exhibits was amazing! So grateful for forward thinking people who agreed to this. The human body is the most complex organism and the experience captures this. The audio guides allow you to move around at your own pace. Definitely worth a visit.
s. a.
First time we visited Body Worlds, London and, it was great! Such an interesting day out. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring and learning new interesting facts about our body! Definitely reinforced my son's ambition of becoming a Doctor/Surgeon! Will absolutely visit again👏🏼
J. R.
Its an amazing place! So much information, so much effort and detail put into this exhibition, I like that it's not just information about the human body but how everything to us in the environment and lifestyle that we have today, I definitely came out of that place encouraged to be more aware and more conscious about me being happy and looking after this amazing body we've been given. Just one word of advise , get warm clothes as (obviously) temperatures are lower than normal inside. I would have gladly pay way more than what I did after what I experienced. I will definitely go back!
N. D.
Good value. Don't worry it's not creepy, very interesting. My ten year old daughter managed to work out what the last exhibit was all about and said 'ewe , did you and mummy do that?' Great fun.
L. P.
A bit pricey but very educational. If you study or you are interested in human body and how it all works it's the perfect place to be. And they offer free ticket to art students. Unfortunately no pictures could be taken. We spent about 3hrs there.
G.
Body World is fantastic, I recommend for everyone to give it a try. It may not be to everyone's liking but it really is educational and fascinating. If like me, you like to look at things in great detail and read all the information. I would say it would take a good few hours to complete. Myself and my brother spent three and a half hours there but felt that we could of easily spent more time there. We went midweek so did have a school trip come in not long after us but we waited until the passed by and then continued on our way. There are a couple of interactive things to do like checking your Blood pressure and having your body weight, muscle mass and fat content checked on a self serve body tracker.
The staff were helpful and friendly. The gift shop has varies items to buy although the gifts are rather pricey but that's usual for London attractions.
S. B.
Absolutely loved it! It's a different exposition and for some can be bizarre, but it's very interesting and unique, you don't have lots of opportunities to see the human body this way. The expo is very well made, you can even go there with kids (I would maybe advise to skip the video explaining how the prepare the bodies if you are sensitive... but the rest is great!).
I recommend this expo and I will definitely repeat in a few years!
T. H.
Stunning exhibition, very glad we went to see it! We also did the Virtual Reality journey around the body which was equally fascinating and only an extra £5 each. We spent well over two hours wandering around the main exhibition, very good audio guide system gives you lots of extra info as you're walking around.
J. M.
Great experience! Loved the audio guides. The models are very cool and seriously educational. Some of the content felt a little "preachy" in terms of self-improvement, but that is a very minor complaint and we had a great time!
F. O.
Interesting exhibit but different to what I expected. It takes a holistic view of the human body and how social factors, lifestyle and mental health take a toll on us. The use of audio guides is engaging but it does mean that you cannot interact much with others.
T. F.
I wish there had been more organs and cross sections of Skin, I would have loved to have seen the body laid out flat with all the organs separated and detailed too. The exhibition was amazing regardless, the little interactive device really adds to the experience
J. M.
Incredible exhibition, well worth the money. We spent 2.5 hours and then had to leave as they were closing. I would suggest at least 3 hours to do it all properly. I am also doing a medical related degree and it was very insightful for applying things I have learnt in theory.
A. L.
Eye and mind opening. On a Thursday in February it was very easy to view each exhibit with no queues. Really appreciated the written explanations were duplicated meaning no waiting for other visitors to move out of the way. We were constantly astounded by the level of detail in the 'cross sections'. Definitely a positive learning experience. Our only criticism: it was uncomfortably cold even with our winter coats and gloves kept on.
R. B.
I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this place. It wasn't until recently that I found out the 'models' are real people, plasticized. And only just before we exited the exhibition, while watching the video about plastination, did I discover that all the 'slices' are also human! It really is fascinating. We visited early afternoon at the weekend and it wasn't too busy - the staggered entry is a great idea. The displays are spread over 3 floors and it took us 2hrs to walk slowly around. I really liked the interactive parts, and that it focused on health (physical and mental) as well as biology. What also struck me is, that underneath, we're all essentially the same! I booked online a few days in advance and got £5.50 off each ticket.
B. I.
Really and truly a unique experience. Everything about the human body is laid out in fine detail everywhere. It really gives you a deeper understanding of what’s inside our bodies and how we function. It is also audio guided so you can listen on a little device that tells you about what you’re looking at. There are a few practical activities as you make your way around the exhibition including a Stress Test, Automatic Blood Pressure monitor and a body composition machine. The trip essentially pays for itself. Really worth it dedicate at least 2 hours to really get to everything. I’d post the pictures, but you’re not allowed take pictures inside.
S. D.
This exhibition is amazing. 3 floors of incredible sights and information about the human body you will come out knowing a lot more than when you went in. Suitable for all ages - age restricted section over 16 is clearly marked and you just dont go into that part. Highly recommended family attraction. Go see it.
A. I.
Great experience to look how humans are built, very educational exhibition - overall a good visit. I didn't like the fact that all exhibits are in the dark rooms with an artificial lights that seems glaring to your eyes from every angle when you look up or trying to get a good look from other sides of a specimen. Cheap and overpriced merchandise in the gift shop, only book probably worth buying. No photography alowed so can't add any to a review.
S. M.
Excellent. Should be considered right up there with the Natural History and Science museums, albeit Body Worlds is much smaller. The size was not an issue for us, we spent around 90mins there, and took everything in. At other museums we usually skip sections/exhibits that don't interest us, however we didn't skip any part of Body Worlds. It was recommended to me by medical students who said it was the best way to learn anatomy, and they were correct.
S.
My only real complaint was my husband and I were too exhausted by the end to read every single exhibit (spent 4-5 hours inside). Not only are the displays fascinating and creative, but the delivery and writing of the educational description plaques and walls are interesting and engaging to read. The acrobats were my favorite display, but every single exhibit big and small had so much to offer as well.
P. W.
Really informative and educational visit we spent 3 hours going around and learning about the human body a really good exhibition. This is all done in good taste and it explained the whole preserving process. The only down side was the "moody lighting" as you struggled to see some of the objects, pictures and read the details of the exhibition.
S. D. S.
An incredible experience seeing what's under our skin. The VR experience was great but when people are in the shop it can be quite distracting as you can hear them talking.
Took us around 3 hours to get around, Reading and listening to everything.
Fairly expensive at £25pp but worth it if you're interested to learn more about whats underneath
E. B.
Absolutely fantastic and educational day our. Always amazed everytime we go!
A. N.
Lovely exhibition. It is quite pricey but you get a good 2.5 hours worth of things to look at. Very interesting and insightful. I especially like the mindfulness side of it, you should leave here with good tips on how to lead a happier, healthier life.
D. O.
Mostly certainly a good experience and definitely worth a visit x
D. B.
Took me 2-3 hours to get around, absolutely worth the money. Would definitely reccomend. You get a headset each and there's lots of information to go with the specimens. There was also a bit of an interactive aspect to some parts, such as a blood pressure monitor for you to use. Will look into his exhibits in other countries too!
T. S.
It was a good and informative experience. There are three levels to the exhibition and different layers has a different focus. However sensitive people might not enjoy their visit as there are very mature materials in the museum ( the last floor had preservations of babies). In addition when you go in to the museum you are given an audio badge which allows you to listen to videos around the place (theres a scanning device around the video projections).
H. B.
Great models, it's so very interesting to see the human body (and a horse) in this amount of detail so close. It's not crowded (at least around midday) and very enjoyable.
The recorded tour would randomly start after being paused but that's a small detail, and you don't really need it if you want to enjoy the exhibition, so if they annoy you just take them off!
P. S.
Body Worlds may not be everybody's taste but we loved it! Seeing and having such useful information about the ham body as well as the interactive tools make this week worth visiting.
Some food for thought about common ham diseases too.
The staff are friendly and helpful too which makes this a very pleasant experience too.
Would definitely recommend visiting.
S.
Honestly it is a very eye opening experience, to see tiny details such as the blood vessels was truly spectacular. The only downfall was it was quite cold inside and as we had locked our coats away we had to rush through the exhibit because we were too chilly. But I would definitely recommend it!
M. B.
It is absolutely fascinating. Amazing to see the human thorn displayed. It is knowledgeable for everyone.
S. H.
A wide variety of exhibits. Went there with my 10 year old son and he was fascinated with the displays. He kept asking if they were real people, which of course they were.
In depth illustrations of all aspects of the wonder of the human body and what it entails, and also what it looks like when things go wrong.
There are also interactive stations where you get a chance to perform CPR on a mannequin or measure your blood pressure. Also a comprehensive scale that measures your body composition of fat bone density, etc.
Overall a great experience and very educational.
L. B.
I am a physiotherapist & could not have loved this exhibition any more. Not only is it educational and informative, there’s an underlying theme reinforcing what it means to have a happy & healthy life. If family’s are visiting, you should be prepared for the fact that there’s an entire section on reproduction & sexual organs. But in my opinion, the best possible way to learn. Very good. Worth every penny. Helpful staff. Deserves all 5 stars!
G. H.
Awesome experience, of you're a teacher, or getting into any type of education that involves the human body in some way. There's a free audio talk you can take around which strives to be accessable to teens and adults very well. It's a good couple of hours if you take your time, with some nice interactive bits and pieces asking the way. It's a shame you can't take photographs here, but they do offer some Shriram fibres for art groups to draw and get to grips with what you're seeing
E. d.
I had very high expectations for this exhibition. It was a great experience if you think of all the work behind making this event possible. It was well presented. If you have never seen any anatomical lectures/workshops you will love it. If you are in the medical profession and have been more exposed to “anatomy” among other fields within Medicine then you will not be impressed. Price was reasonable. Exhibition was all right. Excessive Marketing for this “experience”. It can be very educational. It depends how well accompanied you are at the time of your visit. Beautiful! I had a great time! Time flies in this exhibition. We spent there over three hours. I would recommend it. School or family trips would benefit from this educational exhibition. It was cold inside. I am pleased I kept my coat on. ;-)
s.
Amazing exhibition for people who are fascinated to know about the human body, I have spent the entire day to visit the exhibition! I couldn't recommend this place enough. I would go back again and I am considering the year membership which cost 59.00£ and allow you to go back how many times you would like for a year.
S. J. (.
What an amazing exhibit. Expensive but definitely 3 hours of fascinating information and visual spectacles.
C. G.
Took children 8 & 13 who enjoyed the interactive displays however, some were not working and at busy times would not be enough. Far too many small displays. Most impressive was the horse. I definitely would not take young children.
R. B.
Great site. Eye opener. Head sets are temperamental which takes away from the joy. I will be contacting the organisers about this.
C. C.
Buy tickets online for the best deal. Well worth the money. The exhibition is vast. Very informative. You'll learn lots about your body via the supplied headphones. You have to put your bags in lockers which costs £5 (24/3/19)
L. M.
Absolutely fascinating exhibits. I thought that I'd feel quite ill looking at the plastinated bodies, however it's not so much morbid but thoroughly interesting. It will also definitely make you reconsider that burger or pizza and swap it out for a salad!
B.
A fascinating look inside the human body. The focus has shifted since I visited the exhibition when it was in Manchester in 2014, and there is now a much stronger element of health education, which can be informative but feel overwhelmingly pushy at times, lots of info on obesity and smoking.
Not necessarily for the faint of heart, but an amazing reminder of what your body is capable of, and how it's made up. Kids will find interesting and a good chance to engage them on the subject of their bodies and how they work.
L. K.
Fascinating tour of the human body. It isn't just lots of models of human bodies with no skin -- it's a fairly full human biology lesson made more interesting by being able to see all of it up close.
Of course there are also many plastinated models and they really are fascinating.
A well laid out exhibition on several floors. They limit how many people are in there so that it isn't too crowded, but there is no limit to how long you spend in there.
Highly recommended.
O. R.
It's very different comparing with other museums but it's really really interesting. I loved the way distribution of this ' body worlds' is made. That first is about heart then brain , lungs etc. Usually I am the one who can't watch peoples blood and other things connected with the human body but this is something completely different. When I left this place I realised what is under my skin and how big impact does our actions to our body. Really really worth it to go!
D. P.
A very fascinating exhibition, spent several hours here with the kids last week, it was truly interesting. Customer service was really professional, however my kids noticed that the staff members wear hats similar to those of macdonalds employees. Perhaps that's just a funny coincidence. I highly recommend this place.
c. l.
Really enjoyed the science and the life bodies donated to science. The tour is self guided. You will be given a headset and just press the numbers as you go round but there is a lot more to read if you wanna spend more time learning.
L. S. (.
First of all, great location, exactly near the underground station, so you can’t get lost even if you want to. Amazing experience, spent more than 2 hours looking around, very educative and detailed. I loved the fact that you can check your blood pressure (even though it’s not such a big thing), but it was great to do a practical exercise. The only downside was that my audio guide went crazy after about an hour and therefore, sometimes it worked, but sometimes it didn’t. Overall everything was fine and even though I felt the tickets are a bit overpriced when I bought them, in the end I realised it was all worth it.
J. B.
Interesting idea and we learned a lot. But there were quite literally FIVE different interactive tools or parts of the exhibit that were broken. I feel like for a fairly new to London exhibit, you would want everything fully functioning. I was not impressed with everything not being up to shape. That being said, 3 stars go straight towards the idea and years of work behind teaching people more about their bodies.
M. M.
Very interesting displays. Only negative was that it is freezing cold inside. Furthermore, when you enter you're asked to leave your coat and bags in a locker which costs 2 £. It would have been nice to know that it is really cold inside and a sweatshirt is advisable.
L. M.
Really interesting exhibition. If you are going in winter it's cool inside. You can't take photos. Gives greater understanding of the human anatomy. Real bodies that have been donated to medical science after death have been used to demonstrate organs, muscles, nerves, joints , circulation etc and disease. Fascinating
T. A.
Highly informative and interactive exhibition. I have been wanting to see this for years, and it didn’t disappoint. The intricate details e.g. the tiny blood vessels around the heart are just mind-blowing, and they help learn so much more about the body.
Suggest allowing 2 hours to gently go through. Best to go during the week to avoid long queues. Yes, the reproduction exhibit is little explicit but there are signs to guide you in case you have children.
Easy to see why a lot of people make life-changing decisions after seeing this. From the blackened lungs, blocked blood vessels, fat-laden heart, and embryo sizes to name a few.
The horse exhibition at the end, on the way out, amazing!
D. S.
Very interesting exhibit with plenty to view. There are three floors to the exhibit with lots of body parts on display. The audio guide is useful but means that you can't interact with those you're visiting with. Could also do with some more interactive displays to get hands on with and make it more interesting.
Toilets are on the middle floor which is useful.
The only downside is that you are unable to take any bag into the exhibition. This is not mentioned on their website and you have to pay extra for a timed locker on the ground floor. Not impressed.
S. G.
Very interesting but I feel it's far too expensive for the size of the exhibition.
I went with my boyfriend as we paid almost £45 for our tickets and we only there just over an hour.
r. j.
Its really good and every one should go there were all ages there and lots to see and get involved. They took customer care seriously if you need to sit to rest or go to the toilets its was clean and I do recommend this for anyone. Don't think negative because once you attend your life will change after you see and learn about your body.
F. F.
Spent around three hours there. Very informative and the staff is very helpful. Keep in mind that no bags, not even backpacks aren't allowed so better not bring it if you aren't willing to rent a locker for 2 ponds.
P. A.
Fascinating exhibits - wont be to everyones taste (my teenager went a bit green) but I found it amazing. Bit pricey - worth the extra to pay for a queue jumper ticket at busy times though.
s. k.
First of all if you find yourself in this museum take a minute just to appreciate the fact that the bodies on display are real people, people who donated their bodies , they are not artificial and respect should be given.
This was one of the best exhibitions I have ever visited. A fascinating journey into the human body. It was a very informative and inspiring visit. If you have time while you are in London, Body Worlds is a must see.
P. V.
Simply an amazing place to visit. Truly unique and quite eye opening. Worth the price as you can spend hours observing every single exhibit. Can't recommend enough! Just book in advance.
P. W.
Absolutely awesome place to visit. Educational for all ages. Not gory in the slightest.
Look for the two for one deal with a valid orange rail ticket. Print the voucher off before you go!
M. T.
this museum is really interestint if you have any sort of interest in the human body, the exhibits are really interesting and jam packed full of information, I wouldn't recommend taking children tho as some of the information is a bit beyond their years.
the audio tour is really an added bonus.
T. H.
A brilliant and fascinating exhibition! I learnt so much about the human body, I would thoroughly recommend visiting. The only downside was that the air conditioning was cranked up unnecessarily high and I was frozen by the end and didn't really focus on the last section because I couldn't wait to leave and get outside to warm up.
S. M.
It took me and my friend around three hours to complete the exhibition. I bought the ticket online so I paid £24 but it is a few pounds more without ticket. I cannot think of anything else they could've done to make the place better because I have enjoyed the whole of it.
C.
Excellent exhibit for both people who are interested in biology and anyone else who wants to learn more about the world. The visit includes an audio tour which makes all the information really easy to follow and take in, and it even has some interactive exhibits. Excellent way to pass the day in London.
A. H.
Absolutely amazing! Very interesting and informative, gory in a good way!
I'd recommend to everyone, especially smokers haha
Not too busy either, so you can really look at the exhibits... not sure if they have controlled numbers well or if 10.30am is an unpopular slot!
I saw this back in 2011/12 (not sure) in Korea and enjoyed it more this time, perhaps I paid more attention and therefore got more out of it.
My parents and I took 2.5 hours for the visit, as we were reading and listening to everything.
Lighting should be adjusted as sometimes the shadow of your own head or other people blocks the light so you can't read the information.
I think the lockers should be free of charge however, as if you have a regular sized backpack they won't let you in, so you are forced to use the lockers.
J. P.
Really interesting exhibition. The entry fee can seem quite a lot, but definitely worth it.
Contains some interesting and quite sensitive themes and pieces though.
Would go again
A. C.
Incredibly interesting and educational. No pictures for legal reasons but would recommend a visit. There's one particular exhibit to do with babies which will be a bit sensitive for some, so be careful of that.
m.
Really enjoyed this, fascinating and well worth a visit. We really are all the same when it comes down to it. Only downside was we found the staff a little on the grumpy side which was a shame. A nice smile can make a big difference. Anyway if in London, well worth a visit.
A. D.
Absolute must see. On Piccadilly circus in London. This is a world class exhibition but be warned it is not for the feint hearted. We spent about three hours viewing the exhibits but I could easily have spent the whole day there. I recommend going in the morning so you can spend more time absorbing the wealth of information most of which is via personal headset supplied when you enter. Booking is essential.
L.
Definitely worth seeing. The idea, process of preparation models is fascinating! Highly recommended for anyone interested in anatomy and physiology. Makes biology lesson enjoyable. Will re-visit with children.
S. E.
Great trip to this attraction.
I missed it when it was at the NEC so it was a welcome sight to see it right in the middle of London.
It is not as creepy and weird as I thought displays of dead bodies was going to be.
The process they have used to preserve the bodies is remarkable, there is a video explaining the process at the attraction.
The body of the horse was especially amazing.
There are some sad areas, which warn you before entry, such as babies which did not survive.
Overall a good and eye opening experience.
M. R.
Very educational. Very impressive and we'll be researched and prepared exhibits. Great for children. They have lungs of a smoker vs healthy lungs, which left an impression on my daughter.
S. M.
So much to see, good audio guide, an enjoyable and educational visit!

Brilliant! Took our dad out for his birthday and he loved it. Only one thing I will say is the male bodies are shown for what they really are.. women's nipples are covered by skin, we need to show the milk ducts underneath. Quite literally free the nip!!!! Also it's so cold in there, but it's nice on a hot day.

If you are into anatomy of the human body, just to get an understanding of it or studying medicine, this exhibition is totally worth seeing. So interesting and well made. The plastination technique is unique. Photography is not allowed.

Visit London alot and when i saw this exhibition was available i planned to take my family. We visited the exhibit last week and were welcomed by a very grumpy women who was not particularly welcoming. After paying £75 for 3 people (not cheap) the welcoming member of staff noticed My wife had a small ruck sack and told us we could leave it and collect on our return. My opinion changed thinking how helpful. However we were then advised by another member of staff that we had to pay an additional £2. I refused to pay this as the bag was very small and folded up.
On a positive the exhibition itself was very good and not very busy. There was an additional attraction of a fitness measurement machine. The staff were only being trained up but were very patient and helpful.
Overall not a great experience and on leaving felt it was expensive for what you get .

Body worlds is an amazing and fantastical experience. Seeing the human body at every level is beyond spectacular. This goes far beyond any biology lesson one could receive at school. I will 100% be visiting again with my eldest child (10) as I know this will fascinate him and he will take advantage of all the knowledge available at this wonderful show room.
A. B.
Genuinely an incredible experience, and a perfect day out if you're curious or like to learn. Amazing seeing the human body shown in such an intimate, in depth and scientific way. I learnt so much, from how the nervous system works to how heart disease actually affects the heart and slices of brain that have been effected by a stroke. Mind blowing seeing it all up close, labelled, dissected and explained.
Have to keep reminding myself it was all real bodies and organs - insanity!!
Audio tour is very good, staff are friendly, lockers are reasonably priced and the content is just phenomenal.
Would visit again. They do NHS discount too!
C. L.
I have been to Body World's in Chicago and Vegas before and this one was just as good. Fascinating is an understatement as to what they do with the process. Took a little under an hour to see all of it. If you do the audio tour and listen to everything it will take way longer but I am more of a visual person and would rather read the plaques next to each thing I am interested in. A bit on the expensive side to get in but worth it if you have never seen it before. I am also pretty sure the guy who is responsible for this whole thing would have ended up a serial killer if he hadn't discovered this process of preserving bodies.
J. M.
I was a bit sceptical at how good the exhibition would be but it was really interesting and informative.
Definitely book in advance to save a few quid and give yourself an extra hour so that you can listen to all the audio.
A. F.
Very cool exhibit. The process to create the figures is surreal, and the exhibit is extremely informative. It felt a little crowded at the entrance, but the people quickly dissipated and the rest of the visit was had at a leisurely pace.
j. g.
Visited this exhibition as im studying healthcare. It was mind blowing yet tastefully done. My main critique was although there is excellent access and benches here and there it is A LOT of walking and standing and for anyone who struggles with that it might prove difficult. I should've in hindsight taken a chair stick or wheelchair as it was too much for me though I don't often use one now I was in agony the next day. Some of the displays were quite high up so I'm not sure how wheelchair users would find them but hard to tell unless you're sat in one.
The staff were brilliant and tried to help but sadly had no fold out chairs on site to grab for me to sit in as needed and some of the exhibits were 4 or 5 minute videos and I got to the point where I couldn't enjoy them because I couldn't stand and got told off for sitting on the floor or any of the stands (understandable). The audio system was fab, point and shoot and it played but not the easiest to use. The darkness and sudden brightness may cause those with sight problems issues too. But all that said it was a really informative and interesting display, you could learn everything the human body has to offer if you could take it all in or visit a lot! It helped no end with my course. Highly recommended. I would suggest a good two to three hours to fully enjoy the display. Please be aware that some of the images are graphic and maybe distressing though carefully done and there were many children there. Just beware if you are squeamish or extra sensitive in nature!
G. G.
Just incredible! Very tasteful. I loved being shown healthy and diseased or pathological body parts for a comparison and the whole preserved bodies displayed in different ways. Very happy that we could walk all around them for a full view. The only downsides were that it was quite crowded even though tickets weren't all sold out for that day. Also, the information was fairly basic for me because I've studied biomedicine. Still thoroughly enjoyed the plasticised displays though
J. S.
Great exhibition. Interesting themes of sustainability of modern living in the commentary on the exhibits. Good quality audio tour allows you to take things at your own speed.
A. C.
A must visit London attraction. I mean when was the last time you saw the inside of your body? The exhibition is both artistic and educative. A bit shocking knowing that these were alive people but I left the building with a different appreciation of life.
L. k.
Really interesting exhibits. Hard to comprehend that what was on show were alive people once. Makes you question your life and also realise the damage you are doing to your body. I feel that I understand how a human works now more than anything I was ever taught at school.
C. L.
Wasnt able to take photos unfortunately, but body worlds was an amazing experience. U can learn so much about the body and how we work, the models are unique and you can learn how they are made which again is brilliant.
Location is easy to get to, staff were pleasant, and price was probably the one factor. I paid £20 for my ticket but a ticket there would cost £25. For me, £15-20 max should be the going rate, simply because if you wanted you could do the exhibition in 20mins if you so chose.
I took my time, and read alot so therefore maximized my experience, but for the more casual visitor, £25 for me is to steep.
Other wise I had a fantastic time and highly recommend a visit for any and all.
M. H.
A fantastic display of plastinated bodies accompanied by a few interactive displays, tons of information about how the body works, free audio guides and a decent gift shop. Not for the squeamish, but an amazing place to go to if you're interested in how our bodies work. Sadly photography is not allowed inside due to British law on human tissue. My belongings got stuck in the lockers but the staff went above and beyond to retrieve them, remaining calm and friendly throughout. Highly recommended. Not cheap at around £30 entry but it is good value all the same.
L. M.
Great experience. Very informative. Thought it might be difficult to look at exhibites as they are are real bodies but found once I'd got my head around that fact found it fascinating
R. B.
Just one word - amazing. I'm not a fan of art or museums as such, but Body Worlds was really interesting to see. I suggest it to everyone.
If someone is interested, they've sent me an email with discount code for others: 'Jantastic'.
N. P.
Always wanted to go here and it was as good as i thought would go again that good 👍👍
M. J.
Extremely interesting museum where human and animal bodies are plasticised into sculptures using a mind blowing method. The tour typically takes around and hour and also you are given head phones so when you scan a certain sculpture, there is interesting information provided though audio for you which definitely enhances your experience; will most likely return! - there are also lockers to put your belongings in!
D. S.
Amazing Exhibition! I cannot recommend it enough. it will make you see humanity differently. Very educational. when I left I had a very different perspective onhumans, life and death. A must see.
S. H.
This exhibition is amazing and totally fascinating! It's a great way for children and adults of all ages to learn more about how the human body works. It also makes you think about what damage you can do through lifestyle choices like smoking or over eating.
f. m.
If you are interested in human biology this is a great place to visit. Personally I was a little bit ill at ease looking at the whole human bodies but alright when it was just body parts. There is plenty to read and the head sets are very good for listening to the videos and for general information.
G. R.
An amazing experience. So much to take in. Entertaining and educational. Ideal for all ages especially anyone with an interest in anatomy. It was busy but the system with your own private audio tour alleviates the impact of the crowd.
E.
Great place to visit. Very educational.
B. Y.
Deeply touching and well made, high quality exhibition. The information is received through a pleasant audioguide system that is easy to operate (you Point and Click). There are also multiple interactive points along the way. The audio content is well written, very informative yet entertaining. A Five star experience, well worth it.

I’ve always wanted to see Body Worlds so I was really happy to hear that a permanent exhibition was opening in London. As an artist I’m extremely interested in the human figure, and this is a unique opportunity to see what lies beneath our skin.
Admittedly it was a little unsettling at first, knowing that the bodies and organs on display had once been living, but if you can get past that it’s absolutely fascinating. The exhibition isn’t just about showing bodies, it’s about educating us about how our bodies work, and how our actions and the world around us affect us.
I’d highly recommend the exhibition to people of all ages!
a. d.
For me this project is nothing less than a wonder of the world! Phenomenal! You just have to take your family to this . You will start appreciating your body and life much more. Each system , each organ and each stage of life is seen here in these cadavers. Must see.
T. A. h.
Very good depictions of human anatomy. not for the faint hearted or very young children I think. Takes between 1 and 2 hours depending how much you like reading. the VR experience was just an immersive video but okay at £4 extra if you have time. Quite expensive at £25 per person but I would recommend to those interested in the human body and not too squeamish.
D. P.
So interesting. I was initially put off by the price of £25 per person, but so glad we visited. We were there for over two and a half hours. Worth a trip and the best surprise of the weekend away.
d. k.
Very educational. Allow plenty of time. We spent 2 hours but it wasnt enought to read and listen to everything. 3 hours would be perfect.
The space is a bit dark in places which made it quite difficult to see some things. But overall really enjoyed it. Had a 5 year old with us and she was never bored.
A.
Central piccadilly. Good educational exhibits. Reasonably priced. Will take 2-3 to walk arround. Lift access. Some sexual content done in an educational way but these exhibits have an age rated entrance that can be skipped. Could have done with cellular details with microscopes.
K. L.
Brilliant! Amazing! This exhibition is out of this world! It may not be everybody's cup of tea but my daughter and I just loved it. The human body is just amazing and to see such intricate parts of the body and understanding it so much better was utterly brilliant. I cannot recommend this enough.
B. D.
It took us 3½ hours to go around. Smaller children will bore quickly as there is probably too much information to take in. The audio technology needs big improvement (which we are told is in the process) as it was very glitchy and the sensors on the displays were not mounted for easy accessibility. We turned up around lunchtime during half term and do it was very difficult to see many of the displays due to the number of people. They could have done with limiting numbers. There are lockers available for bags but we were not told of these.
Y.
Spent around 2 and a half hours learning about different stages of the body and its properties in detail, Audio devices which you sync to around 20 different parts of human anatomy.
Accompanying the audio device was different parts of the body which has been preserved Via plastination, all parts that are on display used to be a living person/ Animal.
Overall very interesting place and i recommend it, the Price is what you make of it.
If you just walk through looking at the bodies and different organs, you will NOT be pleased.
J.
Fascinating displays. There are 3 floors of exhibits, you walk from the 5th down to the 3rd.
Make sure you stop and sit to watch the video at the end. I usually find these boring but this one is well worth your time.
The audio headsets are a little bit and miss when it comes to functionality unfortunately, but the excerpts are well worth listening to when they work.
It's not a cheap day out and definitely not for the squeamish, but is well worth the money especially if you have an interest in anatomy or just the human body in general. Have a look online for deals, I got a decent discount like this.
P. J.
This place showed me that even at my age, the body is a marvel and how little we understand about how it. This exhibition is the best way to shock people into finding a way to change their lifestyles. It highlights cause and effect without forcing it down your throat. I for one will be effecting a change, as although I am not able to turn back time, I can slow the process down. This is for everyone to find out how lucky we are to be human.
B. M.
A visual feast for all who are hungry enough.
A fantastic tour through the systems of our body.
I took my 9yr old daughter who was fascinated (I did spend a few days watching online clips to prepare her as recommended by the BW website).
I have long believed we should all have the opportunity to understand ourselves from the inside out (and the choice not to!). Body World's continues to educate me in the most creative fashion.
The only detractor to my personal visit I'd like to add is that the audio tour device was very patchy in its operation . I did change my device but to no avail. In the end it was became annoying so had to switch it off. I have mentioned this to the museum staff who were apologetic (not much else came of that though). Didn't stop me enjoying the visual feast though.
All in, couldn't recommend it enough for all whom are interested...
P. A.
Interesting to see what humans “ are made of”
It’s all done in a very descent and clean way, so for kids or even adults there’s no reason to be afraid.
It’s educational as well, and friendly staff is there to help you.
Pictures are not allowed to be taken, which is in my opinion perfectly fine. Do not forget they were one real humans like you and me.
S. M.
Such a great experience - to see the human body immortalised in plastic is a wonder to behold!
Being able to physically see the effects of different external factors on the body was a marvel - I highly recommend seeing it.
Since going, I have started to eat healthier foods and be aware of what I put into my body
T. L.
Body world is an amazing place . We found it very interesting spent 3hrs viewing everything. It really made you think how your body works and what you need to do to be more healthy. Well worth a visit .
S. B.
Amazing! If I didn't know they were real I'd have said they were plastic! Learnt some amazing new things about the body, some I'd rather not! Glad I don't smoke!!! Staggered entry made the tour round easy with plenty of space.
K. (.
A really great experience. It is amazing what Dr. Gunther von Hagens has created. It's also quite surreal - you forget you're looking at donated corpses in fascinating detail. These were real people. It's something I think everyone should visit and everyone can learn and take something away from the exhibit. Photographs aren't permitted inside - as the specimens are real cadavers. They were people and that should be respected - sadly I saw some disregarding the 'no photo' rule though.
L. A.
Really interesting. Spent a long time listening to the guides and looking closely at everything
Also a bit sad. These are real people who completely lost their identities. E experienced a huge range of emotions. Very educational.
N. A.
It was the hottest date in the UK to date - 25 July 2019. 35 degrees. So we decided to visit Body Worlds with the kids. We'd been meaning to do so for sometime. I know, staring at dead bodies on a hot summer's day doesn't sound like a brilliant idea. But joking aside we loved this exhibition. A great way to understand how the human body works as well as what makes us human. And thought provoking too. The kids also absolutely loved it!
J. A.
Interesting place to visit, if a bit on the expensive side. Spent about three hours going around the exhibits. Staff couldn't seem to care less though, had a conversation amongst selves before serving customers.
J. J.
The exhibition is great, very educational and I'm grateful to have witnessed it.
But I accidentally bought a ticket for the wrong date, and I am being refused a full refund. As a recent graduate I now have paid £56 for an exhibition. This is sad. Be warned, they are ruthless when it comes to customer service.
V. H.
Such an amazing experience. I would recommend allocating at least 3 hours here. So much to see, read and listen to. Good educational visit for adult and children too
S. L.
Finally managed to catch this exhibition. Used the Tiqets app and got entry for 20 pounds. Great that it has a more permanent space. Worth the money; be prepared to spend around 1.5-2 hours to see everything.
A. D.
All I can say is this exhibition changed my life and made me think about what's really important. The fact we are all going to die and its how we choose to live it, through our own decisions and actions. Very thought provoking and also strange to see the beauty in death.
D. P. B.
Fascinating plasticised bodies in very human and engaging exhibition on how we are put together. We spent three hours there and the whole family enjoyed the experience. We learned a lot about how to look after the miraculous machine we have been given to live in and learned about the negative consequences of not doing so.
J.
Superb exhibition. The process of plastination is remarkable; you wouldn't believe the insight it gives you into the workings of the human body. You can see how every muscle, bone, organ, blood vessel and nerve ending work together in unison to make life happen. Mind-blowing detail and well worth the money. Go!
A. T.
What an amazing place... This exhibition is both remarkable in its displays and truly educational. Whether you go for curiousity, education or fun this is an ideal trip... I've never seen a real body until today, but it's not what you would expect!
G. H.
Phenomenal amount of information here, cleverly explained and set out for all age groups. Hard to believe that these are all real people, you find yourself in total awe with the extent of forethought, time and extreme meticulous attention to detail. All in all quite breathtaking. Not cheap, but when you consider what is exhibited, and how it is maintained well worth it.
W. G.
Fascinating exhibition.
Good for all ages, covers all aspects of human biology, tastefully and informatively done with warnings on the sensitive display with the option to pass these by if you wish. It’s not macabre, or scary for children, but there are obviously naked figures and genetalia displayed for educational purposes.
It promotes healthy life style and is a brilliant addition to GCSE Biology at school. Highly recommended for teenage children.
It can be pretty expensive to take the family here so Look out for groupon deals or two for one on the trains, that will make it much better value.
R. G.
Very interesting exhibition, even for someone who has a good knowledge of the human body or who works in healthcare. While you're here you can measure your own blood pressure and have your body scanned for fat composition/BMI etc. The museum takes about an hour and a half to navigate but there is a lot to see and the audio guides have a lot of content.
T. H.
Visited the Body worlds exhibition on Friday 29th March at 1pm. I have been wanting to visit for such a long time and my birthday seemed like a good time to visit. Initially our visit was going very well until a load of school kids came in at about 3pm. It was such a shame that the school kids didn't appreciate what an opportunity they were given in visiting the exhibition. Maybe I'm being idealistic but not one of the kids was interested in the exhibition all they wanted to do was race about and be as loud and offensive as possible to everyone else. Shame on them and the teachers that let them get away with it.
M. S.
The staff were very friendly and helpful and the exhibitions were very interesting. There were many different displays of the human body and its parts with detailed explanations on how each part of it works from bones, organs, muscles and much more.
There are three floors, each with different areas that focus on different body parts and the presentation and atmosphere are both astounding, leaving you excited to venture on to see what is next but also not wanting to miss anything in the area you are in.
A lot can be learned from visiting Bodyworlds and you might even leave the exhibition with a positive change in mindset such as being influenced to take more care of your body or change the way that you eat. But as a bare minimum you will learn a lot of new things about the way your body works and why you do some of the things that you do.
There is even a boditrax machine inside the venue which is a machine that gives you lots of information about your body, from a scan it does on you that takes a few minutes and I thought this was a very nice feature
I would recommend arriving at least 3 hours before closing time to really soak up all that the place has to offer, as you can easily find yourself out of time after being captivated in all of the amazing displays
t.
Watch out for the additional £2 fee for the locker service
Overall good experience, however it was very dark and a bit cold in the museum.
Customers should be advised when purchasing tickets online that they are not allowed to bring any bags in, otherwise if you do you have to pay extra £2 for the locker !!!
L. H.
Excellent displays if you are into that kind of thing. My children 6 and 10 enjoyed it too, there are a few interactive bits throughout which helped keep their interest. No bags are allowed so you have to pay for a locker before you can enter. £2 for a small or £6 for a larger one. They only accept card payments for the locker hire. No photos or videos allowed inside, although plenty of people were doing and no one seemed to stop them. The audio guide which is included in the visit needs fixing. They are temperamental, to say the least. Sometimes comes on automatically but you have no idea if it is meant to be playing. Then you can point the device at certain displays to hear more information. Sometimes it works, sometimes it cuts off midway, sometimes doesn't work at all. Very frustrating. It wasn't just our group that had this problem, many people just gave up with it all together. The staff collecting the audio devices at the end were fully aware of the issues as most people were complaining when handing them back. Hope they change the audio system as it's otherwise a good visit.
J. C.
This exhibition is worth every penny. Full of amazing facts about the body and the exhibits although explicit are not gory or offensive. Brilliant idea great education for kids and adults alike.
L.
Amazing! but I dont think its for the squeemish. A very good display that could keep you interested for hours, there are lots of different exhibits, some of which could make you a little uncomfortable, this doesn't change my opinion of it being a very good and scientific experience.
L. G.
Absolutely fantastic, I could have easily spent more than 4 hours there, it's packed with so much biological information. Very insightful plus the bodies weren't disgusting they seemed waxy
J. V.
We saw this exhibition in 2002 in London. I'd say it was 70% the same, but this time all the messages around the rooms sounded as though the government had sponsored the show. Eat less sugar, do more exercise, less stress etc. Yes it's all common sense, but a bit over the top. Overall a good experience and makes you think about your body.
A. P.
What an interesting and absorbing exhibition. I know quite a bit about the human body (from having an anatomy and physiology teacher for a mum) but to see everything in its place in the body was a revelation. Well worth the drive to London
S. G.
Taken for Mother's Day by my son as I'd been desperate to go since it opened. Once you get over the fact that these are actual people, the exhibition is a little bit GCSE biology revision. The absolute best bit is the ten minute video at the end showing the plasticising process from start to finish. That was absolutely fascinating and really I would have liked to have seen much more of that during the exhibition walk round.
D. S.
Excellent and very educational. Spent 3 hours in there with my Dad.
Could possibly do with somewhere to get a snack so time it right with your meals.
Staff very helpful.
B. d. A.
I took the kids to Body World in Piccadilly Circus. They were fascinated as they could learn so much more about how their bodies work. The part which looked at the differences between healthy and unhealthy organs helped reinforce messages around lifestyle choices. Audio descriptive devices were made available. They worked a treat. This was a great exibition.
O. B.
This exhibition is fascinating, thoroughly enjoyed it. At times it was uncomfortable to look at, but not gross as I worried it might be. It was interesting to see how we are all really the same on the inside and that our life choices change how healthy or otherwise our bodies are.
N. T.
An absolutely amazing experience. You won't have ever seen the human body displayed like this before. Individuals that have donated their entire bodies to be preserved and put on display forever.
M. B.
I wasn't sure if like it as I walked in but I soon found it very fascinating and interesting. By the end I didn't want to go. Makes you realise how intricate and amazing the human body really is.
S. L.
As a biologist, visiting this exhibition was a keen aspiration - and worth every bit of the time and energy getting there. Thank you to my beautiful girlfriend for buying me a ticket!
S. T.
The statues were all people who donated their bodies after death for human knowledge. Don't touch, respect them. They were lives that rippled in this world, a light now dust, that sparkles in the cosmos..
J. H.
Very interesting, informative and educational. Everything was explained very well both at the displays and on the audio guide. I would recommend a visit to anyone interested in how the human body works.
T. F.
Amazing experience, absolute must see! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because it was absolutely freezing - aircon was way too much. Make sure you wrap up before you come, despite summer coming ...
D. W.
This is excellent and certainly worthwhile a visit. I think everyone should visit and I am sure there would be so many more healthier people walking around. The displays are not just on your body but your brain as well. I thought I knew a lot about how my body works but I certainly learnt a lot from this. The real displays have certainly stopped me smoking. Every time I think of smoking I picture the display of a real smokes a lung a a non smoker.
There are however a couple of negative comments.
You can't take drinks in and there are no water fountains or area to get a drink. Considering this is all about keeping your body healthy and a part of that is to keep it hydrated, this was an uncomfortable last hour of the visit. In fact the last part was rushed.
The lighting in some parts was poor. There were a number of times that I would be trying to read something and then someone's shadow would cast over the writing.
I have arthritis. I was so interested I wanted to read everything in detail, however with the pain of having to stand so much this was hard. There could therefore be more seating as again I had to leave/rush some parts.
S.
Exhibition at the Trocadero Centre, Piccadilly Circus. Eye-popping exhibitions made from real life human body parts which have been plasticised. A great learning curve about the anatomy for kids as well as for adults. You'll be surprised how much we don't know about what's inside us! A state of the art sound and visual guide allows you to wander at your own leisurely pace from one exhibition to another. See what a titanium hip and knee replacement looks like 'in the flesh'. Ever wondered why your friends always set off the alarm system going through airport security? It might not be their ear rings or nipped piercings!! Prepare to be amazed! Get your blood pressure checked for 'free' and see if you are good and able enough to resuscitate a human, practising on a dummy!
A. F.
Visited with my family a couple of weeks ago. We are all medical but my boyfriend is not... So I wasn't sure how he would find it. But he loved it.
Great exhibition
M. W.
Great exhibition about our bodies and organs! Amazing and very informative. I can recommend a visit and if you go you should plan for about +2,5h.
P. C.
Very good educational and entertaining exhibition. Definitely recommend for all age groups in teens and over. You'll need minimum 3 hours!
M. S.
It's very cool place 🤓🤓 There are interesting facts. It was included in London Pass so I don't know its price :c I spent like 2 hours to see it completely.
k. c.
Visited by London Pass, very impressed when seeing the introduction of the museum, before going to deep interpretation and anatomy of the functions of various systems of our body, we have been kindly reminded of how hurry and restless to suit for everything provided in the modern society, we push our to mind to exceed the limit, leading to high blood pressure , cancer, and many other chronic diseases. We have time to rethink how the treat our mind and body to lead to a longlasting, healthy, wealthy and truthful life.
I have been mistreated by my own family members of mainly strict comparison , saying that I am at what age, and I should do this and that, and watch my words that remind that I should act like an adult and not a kid anymore, starting when I was 4 years old, you haven't seen wrong. At 6 years old, remind me of aware of the tone of speech, and written sentences should behave like an adult, and repeat for 10 times a day. I was deeply tortured and yet the relatives and cousins are unfortunately so matured , they have been so estute of being get the first of the form every academic year, being professors, auditor, senior government official, monetary authority executive very young. My father often compare myself to them since I was young, in which the cousins really act far beyond of the real age.
I was so phobia of having an older outlook comparatively to a young mind , personality and acting , in which my father was so sensitive of being criticized in public even for one gesture, or a sentence for being so old yet act in a young way, he would repeat for a thousand times and murmur it for few weeks. Very ironically and unfortunately, my parents are all incredibly tall, making others to overestimate even from 6 years of age.
Since then, I have been very strict on my diet, hopefully would decelerate my physical growth rate, by means of eating raw fruits and vegetables of over 80% of composition, walking , jogging and even running for over 20 km per day since I was 6 years old, later adding to 30km per day, hoping I would attain an adult outlook later a long run. Later proved my common sense is absolutely correct, it has been ways of delaying puberty and minimizing rate of cancer.
In contrast, I put myself psychology as mature as possible, I believed in Buddhism, Karma, and past lives very much since I was 8. I hope that there would be an explanation for my tortune, and I could reincarnated to become an innocent, happy and playful child in next life, while Catholicism doesn't have the same principle, I would not have a glimpse of being as a feeling of a child.
However, no one understood but on the contrast criticized for my over sensitivity and over react , and claimed that my long term deprivation to my father requirement as it is a very social norm and doesn't worth any extra mercy.
I started not playing my my classmates anymore, with friends from older forms and even teachers, uncles, and aunties not in the family group,seeked for a sense of being a younger peer within an older group of friends, compensating for the lack of being loved and cared by my parents as a kid even though I was really a kid in any sense.
I put myself into deep torture of unrest, fear and even depression so as to make my parents love me more, but seems they didn't appreciate for my efforts, just said plainly if I committed suicide, in return still no one would found it pity and show mercy.
I later went mad of buying Lupron secretly on online website, so as to delay puberty and really hope to have a chance to be the little girl in my parents eye. Perhaps my persistent will of depression really damage my brain secretion of sex hormones, my final goal have been achieved. My menarche start at 24
I was not allowed to be in the playground with slides and swings since I was nearly 6 years old, grandma said I am too old , toys forbittened since 6 years old, I felt guilty in playing toys since then.
I believe have a raw food diet is a way leading to our goal, being free from deadly cancer, and psychological problems.

Amazing experience! This exibition goes beyond expectations. It's not just a museum, it's a 360^ experience, a discovery of our own body and its functions, it's an eye opener for whoever wants to change thwir lifestyle. It's tailored for adults and older children. At the entrance devices with headphones are distributed and each aspect of the exibition is fully and thoroughly explained to the public according to age. Each body is a real human body donated to the museum by volunteers, therefore the atmosphere is relaxed, but intimate, a respectful approach should be kept throughout the exibition.

Amazing only wished the clickers worked better... Also the locker system is complex without needing to be.... But the exhibition itself is just wonderful ... I could have spent all day in there

I have previously visited Bodyworld in Berlin, however my wife really wanted to go so decided to visit the London venue. I liked the fact that this had a different theme to the Berlin Bodyworld so I got to see something new and different. The displays and information are absolutely fantastic and the attention to detail is quite incredible. So much to learn and see, just wish there was more! Only reason for the 4 stars-the price. Tickets were £27 each, I paid €10 in Berlin for an equally sized attraction.
J. S.
Anatomically informative audio guides although I preferred not to use it.
Much smaller than when I saw it at the O2 so was a little disappointed but it is still awe inspiring and fascinating art using real cadavers. Well worth a look even though I think £25 per adult is a wee bit steep. My one year old grandson seemed captivated by it too.
In close proximity to The Criterion Theatre, The Four Horses of Helios and The Three Daughters of Helios statues. Right opposite Anteros statue (revenger of unrequited love), in Piccadilly Circus.
Nearest tube station is Piccadilly Circus

If the review was about the idea of plastination and intention of its inventor I would give 5/5. But it’s about the exhibition. The exhibits are the highest quality, the staff is not.
Our audio guide devices didn’t work properly, on every display unit you have to switch it on manually and this remote control thing could work better.
At the end, our locker refused to open, they called the manager who accused us of not paying for it (£2)... once he checked it turned out it’s broken and took him about 20 minutes to release it. This incident spoiled the general impression of the exhibition.
Y. U.
Unforgettable experience; extremely informative. It's a 2-3 hour experience, and in my opinion, the temperature in the building could have been slightly higher (I wasn't the only one who felt the uncomfortably low indoor temperature).
D. M. W.
Extremely interesting to see inside real human bodies. Being that I am a visual thinker it was a great educational experience. Understandably, they don't allow pictures. Reccomend a visit.
M. C.
It's fascinating to see but it's pricey for the information and you get and the setup of the exhibition. It was very busy and hard to see descriptions.
Try and go early or late I reckon. By 4pm it seemed to be quietened down.
F. H.
Amazing exhibition. Fascinating for us being in the medical world. Done in such a way that if you didn't already know they were real bodies you wouldn't know. Plenty of warning that you are about to enter area/exhibit that might offend or cause distress. Spent 2 hours wandering around.
T. A.
Fascinating, this isn't just about looking at a lot of dead people it's a whole education about how the body works! I've been wanting to see this exhibition for years and now it's a permanent fixture in London Piccadilly. I thoroughly recommend it.
M. S.
Booking online is slightly cheaper than walk-up entry fee and you get a time slot to manage how many people inside at the same time. We turned up before our 11am allocated time, at 10:30, and were allowed in OK. No bags, rent a locker £2 I think on credit card. Was getting busier by 11, so get there early if possible. Tickets for a family of 4 (2 adults + 15yo + 10yo) were just over £80, expensive but about worth it. Where else can you see plastic aged folk? Get the free audio guide.
J. B.
Impressive! Stunning! After taking it all in, visitors could pause, reflect and write down their 'must-do-before-I-die'on huge vision boards. Definitely recommend to see this at least once.
F. S.
Amazing. More than just incredible plasticates, it's an excellent tour through the body that doesn't patronise and genuinely has an immense amount to share. Put aside an hour for each of the three floors and take your time.
A. D.
Really an amazing place, I study biology at a level and we went here for a trip. I could not believe how much knowledge I could have possibly gotten from this trip. I would definitely go here again one day.
M. H.
This is an excellent exhibition. One learns so much about the human body. Fantastic animation and display of different parts of human body
There is too much of info to be taken in such a short time.
N. B.
This is brilliant for the whole family very educational
This is not gory it is all very tastefully done apart from a few questionable poses may have to be explained to younger children. Best for 10 years and above
A. B.
This is not for the faint hearted but incredibly interesting and well laid out. Definitely worth a visit and the higher than average price.
m. H.
Truly an amazing experience 3hours of experiencing healthy and disease bodies, enjoying a pizza and wine with my girls and watching the street talent, feeling the indulgence of too much wine. Body worlds worth a visit.
P. W.
A fantastic show. Well worth a visit. Both educational and entertaining. Fantastic workmanship. Brilliant display. A must.
T. F.
Amazing experience, absolute must see! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because it was absolutely freezing - aircon was way too much. Make sure you wrap up before you come, despite summer coming ...
J. M.
I was a bit sceptical at how good the exhibition would be but it was really interesting and informative. …
S. E.
A very interesting exhibition, see the film at the end as it reveals all and answers those doubting questions.
D. D.
More seating would be great for weak visitors like me. i would have been able to enjoy it much more if i could just have rested more often.
W. G. (.
Great educational exhibition with plenty of exhibits and detail. The audio guide was very useful as I didn’t have one when I visited in Amsterdam.
A. M.
I have to say that before going to this exhibition my expectations were low, because I really thought it was just (distasteful and morbid) entertainment with no educational purpose but I was really wrong.
I think everybody can learn a lot about the human body with this exhibition, I can’t recommend enough, it is money and time well spent.
K. M.
Bit disappointed. Had the impression it was a small Kopperwelthe, but turned out differently. Although I learned a lot, I was bored by the end. The amount of information was too overwhelming when you only expect statues. Nevertheless a very instructive visit.
D. B.
Very interesting. We spent 3 hours there and it could easily have been more. Not for everyone, but coming from a medical background I found it fascinating. Lots of children there too.
J. G.
Never thought I would see human bodies and organs in such great detail. A very educational exhibit, spent a great afternoon there! Definitely would recommend everyone else to see it!
P. H.
Really interesting exhibition on the human body. The plastination of the body is really surreal and quite a few of the bodies are a bit freaky. Nevertheless, it was pretty cool to see what is under the skin of human bodies
J. W.
This was my third visit to a Body Worlds exhibition (the others being in Amsterdam and New York). I fully recommend everyone goes to this if they get the chance. It also totally deserves repeat visits.
C. K.
Absolutely brilliant. Took over 4 hours to cover the entire exhibition in detail. Well worth it for anyone with an interest in the human body. Thank you Gunther.
b.
The most friendly and helpful staff, and an absolutely brilliant, unique, genuinely interesting exhibition. If you're interested in the human body, this is 100% the place for you.
N. K.
Interesting place to walk around and with a decent audio guide, but I wouldn't say I really learnt anything. If you like seeing bodies and muscles then go, but otherwise don't rush there
B. T.
Loved the experience, it was very quiet here, unlike other Londoon exhibits, so no cues and a very interesting, educational visit. Chinatown just around the corner for lunch afterwards also.
C.
Body worlds is absolutely brilliant. I have learned so much by visiting the museum. I am absolutely intrigued how magnificent the human body actually is. It makes me want to take care of it more.
G. S.
Really interesting day out, definitely worth going and learning some fascinating things m. Hard to grasp that the body parts are actually real. Clean but only downside is you can’t take pictures
B. P.
Very interesting and enlightening exhibition if you can see past the disgusting side of it. It's not a place for the queasy, but is great for the scientifically minded and those who are interested in seeing how the human body works.
J. L.
Amazingly detailed plasticised bodies, an essential visit for anyone interested in human biology! More comparison between organs after various afflictions would be appreciated, as well as more hands on things for littluns.
Be prepared to queue for a while!
J. L.
Had to pay for lockers after entry tickets. The plastinates were certainly interesting, though looped videos on monitors throughout exhibition were short and poor quality.
S. m.
Nice exhibition but as I partecipated to others this one didn't move me particularly, there are cheaper options in Europe as this one I consider a bit expensive but.. It is in London and overall was well done, a nice experience
A. S.
Great experience and very eye opening. Even though we know about all the different lifestyle issues we face in modern society, this exhibit really does motivate you to be better and strive to live a long and healthy life
K. O.
An tremendous bout of existential mustisms to put you and your life in check. An informative roller coaster of a ride through our mind body duelism. You must take this tour and reaffirm your humanism. Not macabre just real and honest.
M.
So interesting!!! We went to the Amsterdam exhibition a few years ago so we were happy when it came to London so as we could bring friends and family.
F. L.
Excellent exhibition! Very interesting and thought provoking displays. Great learning tool for kids and adults alike. Well worth a visit!
H. B.
Absolutely brilliant. This is an excellent exhibit showing all aspects of your insides. Not at all gory in any way. So interesting. Arrived at 6 left at 8.40!!!!
S. H.
Was an enjoyable day out, wish i had more time to go around looking. The display of bodies were scientific and md not at all weird, gunther has been respectful in his approach to the dead bodies.
R. M. F.
Great insight on how many of the organs function in the human body and how bodies deal stress ,love and laughter.. The entry fee of £28.00 per adult ticket is a far to expensive and a rip off and may put people off.
m. H.
Truly an amazing experience 3hours of experiencing healthy and disease bodies, enjoying a pizza and wine with my girls and watching the street talent, feeling the indulgence of too much wine. Body worlds worth a visit.
J. W.
Brilliant exhibition to visit over 5 floors! So much to see. Just take your time with it and you will be amazed
D. C.
Very interesting visit, worth taking to time to go gives you a different perspective on your body and what an amazing feat of engineering it really is
l. g.
Wow, absolutely fascinating. Very informative, brilliant experience to see all of the different things close up. Would reccomend the experience to anybody!
A. D.
Really an amazing place, I study biology at a level and we went here for a trip. I could not believe how much knowledge I could have possibly gotten from this trip. I would definitely go here again one day.
J. L.
Amazing experience. Good anatomy teaching for those who are interested in medicine, with an audio guide included, and for those who already know it, there's some incredible artistic poses.
e. l.
The price of entrance is not small, there for you would expect the voice over guidance to work. Three pieces out of five in our group didn't work... interesting to visit once, wouldn't go again...
C. K.
Amazing! This place is perfect for people who are into science and also for people who aren't. This museum is excellent and extremely educational. Also suited for all ages
a. c.
Great place to go, i feel like it it a very secure place the exhibits where as beautiful as seeing a baby taking its first breath
recommend it for all ages.
J. M.
What can I say one of the most interesting things I've ever done we were in there for over 3 hours and it was very intriguing quite unbelievable would definately recommend for anyone looking for a different experience worth every penny £24 per adult
Z.
It was a little eerie, at some parts,for me and yet I found myself fascinated by a lot of it.I don't know what I expected but what I got was a unforgettable experience. I probably wouldn't do it agian though once is all I need😂😂.
n. b.
Incredible, I’ve been twice now and both times they had to kick me out at closing time. Totally inthralling displays. Well presented and educational
T. n.
I took 2 boys both aged 11 and we all really enjoyed it. It's amazing to think about all that stuff going on inside you as you walk around.
C. S.
Amazing to see how the muscles and nerves and everything works. It's a must see to understand your body. I was amazed at how well the specimens are preserved.
T. H.
You can discover so many things about the human body. Audio guide is included in the ticket price. For me it was an 1hour and half visit.
S. C.
Amazing, fascinating and informative place, loved that the bodyscan made me 11 years younger! Hehe! The virtual reality experience was amazing, glad we paid the extra for it 😊
S. L.
Expensive but entertaining. Enough to keep a 6 year old entertained for at least an hour. Price for one adult and one child £50 at the door.
T. B.
Really great place to visit the exhibition is truly amazing the effort that has been put in is 10/10 ..the only thing that lets it down is the entery fee... It's a little on the high side to say the least .
N. B.
This is brilliant for the whole family very educational
This is not gory it is all very tastefully done apart from a few questionable poses may have to be explained to younger children. Best for 10 years and above
s. c.
Very interesting exhibition especially if you are interested in the anatomy. Very tastefully done and not gruesome in any way. Highly recommend it
S. M.
One of the best museum in London. It will help you to discover how precise our life and body is. Its not a science its message to live a life.
N. C.
A thoroughly enjoyable exhibition. Facinating and informative. We spent more than 3 hours here and it felt like 15mins. Would highly recommend as a must see!!!
Z. S.
Took a group from a youth centre and they loved it!! It was well worth the money and will visit again. Give yourself at least three hours
S. W.
Very interesting! The only minus was that we had a lot of problems with the guide system.
Just to prepare you: you will spend a lot of time in here. Don't ruch!
A. T.
Finally went to see this over ten years since I first heard about it. Very good, although pretty busy, so had to wait for certain exhibits
M. H.
This is an excellent exhibition. One learns so much about the human body. Fantastic animation and display of different parts of human body
There is too much of info to be taken in such a short time.
F.
Good stuff! Very educational exhibition! Lets you see what you can’t see in the ordinary life or if you don’t work in a morgue!!
Recommend!
T. S.
Incredible!! Really fascinating to see what the human body looks like on the inside. Would highly recommend for educational purposes, but also to fulfil a morbid curiosity
S. S.
London's newest craze.
Worth the visit
D. D.
More seating would be great for weak visitors like me. i would have been able to enjoy it much more if i could just have rested more often.
V. S.
Fascinating and learning so much ! I did not see how quickly the time went by ! Stayed over 3 hrs ! Highly recommended !!! Minus point : the RV experience was a waste of time and money - I do not recommend it !
L. S.
Best day out! Went there to help my biology alevel knowlage and it was so useful! Lots of info bout the heart and kidneys, would love to go again.
J. J.
It was a lot longer than I thought it was going to be nearly 2hrs...but it was very good I loved it. But my audio tour thing kept being annoying...so I won't recommend using that.
E. M.
Fascinating, captivating, it gives you a different perspective in life, once you see everything that goes on inside your body. Would be happy to visit again
C. H.
Facinating, informative and educational day out. To really get the most out of it, spend at least 3 hours going around all the exhibits.
s. s.
Very interesting insight into the human body. Well worth a visit. Takes about 90mins to complete the exhibition.
J. E.
Fascinating displays, interesting and educational. Worth a visit, but book online early as it's a little cheaper than buying in the day.
A. B.
This is not for the faint hearted but incredibly interesting and well laid out. Definitely worth a visit and the higher than average price.
P. S.
A truly fascinating place to visit. All the displays are tastefully done. I learned quite a few things too.
J. S.
Excellent very interesting the exhibition is very well laid out and topped of at the end with a small film presentation explaing the process.
R. M.
Loved it, absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend going, we spent just over 4 hrs looking around
S. R.
Absolutely fascinating, loved it! We spent over 3 hours in there looking at the displays and listening to the narrations
D.
Absolutely amazing. So glad I went. Definitely make this one of your "to-do" places if you're in London!
E. M. M.
Very nice
J. P.
Amazing, very educational and interesting. Although it's a bit expensive. Loved the prenatal section, as well as the nervous system!
N. S.
Even if the whole exhibition was prepared in English, the film, which is shown at the end is in German language.
Otherwise I would have given 5 stars.
K. H.
Incredible exhibition! I would highly recommend if you love all things macabre and art!! Utterly beautiful!
I.
Great exibition with lots of interesting information available. Not very suitable for kids as a lot of information had to be read and make sure to go the toilet before starting.
T. M.
Fasinating! It was very artistic yet still educational. Entry was quite expensive though. We paid on arrival so may be able to get it cheaper online in advance.
D. W.
What an amazing experience, definitely advise you to visit if you're thinking of it...so much learnt from these wonderful volunteers.
C. M.
It was interesting but aberrant at the same time. Some of those corpses were in very irreverent positions and that really touched the depths of my conscience.
A.
The process to make this kinda of art is interesting, but it was not so new to me since I have taken anatomy class in college
N. R.
Great fun, interesting and educational, just to short and the old exhibition had more bodies
V. T.
Realy asewome.... Virtual movie a litle bit to shirt and just about blood cell... But is nice..... 28£ entrace it seems a bit higher than it should be
P. M.
Loved it! Great experience with my daughter! She learned a lot from the junior doctor program too! X
A.
Enjoyable. Can walk around at own pace. Goes into great detail of the body. Very interesting and something different to do.
K.
Very educational, maybe not for the faint hearted! More seating needed through the exhibition.
A. L.
Truly odd experience. So fascinating and interesting. I liked that all aspects of the human body had been covered.
R. K.
Good exhibition, but did not like that they notify only when u come at ticket check to put you backpack in locker, which is extra charge.
J. M.
Incredible place! Very educational and completely absorbing. You definitely have to see it to believe it.
A. T.
Overpriced, interesting at first but feels repetitive as you walk around. Could see similar things by reading an anatomy book!
m. c.
Very interesting. Focus is on your bodies role in mental health and happiness this time. Well laid out exhibition.
P. J.
Made you feel very humble. I'd like to say it helped me reevaluate my health decisions but I'm sat in a London pub drinking cider now so... 🤷🏼♀️
P. D.
Very interesting museum, the bodies look fake, but at the end of the museum there is a room where they explain how the real bodies are conserved and prepared!
G. A.
Seen this exhibition in Amsterdam, good experience. But a complete rip off when compared with the prices in Holland. Shocking. £80 for 2 adults and two kids.
E. L.
Very similar to what is was years ago but much more focus on the trials and tribulations of life today. Takes a couple hours to walk around and really get your moneys worth by reading and listening to everything.
H.
Amazing amazing amazing.... What more can you say
M.
Awesome experience! A trip through each part of our bodies. Super informative and.. Amazing!
O. R.
I've always been interested in the human body. They have real bodies and they show the things that go wrong. Don't worry all bodies were donated for this reason and they can't be identified.
k. h.
Not bad place to visit but the bodies in museum are real dead people made into a kind of plastic covering clever but bit odd or even sick.
L. *.
Amazing exhibition. Visited 4 times at different places and love it. Worth to see. Its breathtaking.
P. W.
A fantastic show. Well worth a visit. Both educational and entertaining. Fantastic workmanship. Brilliant display. A must.
A. B.
A must when visiting London. Totally lost ourselves for over an hour. Some interaction things to do too. Absolutely brilliant!
Y. G.
Only found out all bodies shown made from really human beings in the end. Bit of scary but quite educational. A good experience once in a life.
a.
An anatomy lesson that everyone should attend. A simple and effective way to learn what the human body means from an anatomical point of view.
L.
Was skeptical at first & was reluctantly dragged along by my girlfriend. Super memorable experience and a must see. Almost life changing...worth checking out.
R. R.
Real interesting experience I learnt a lot about the workings of our body's I think I will have to go again at some point it's a lot to take in with one walkthrough
D. P.
Lovely place to visit!! Worth every single penny and do not forget to ask for the VR tour at the end.
S. E.
A very interesting exhibition, see the film at the end as it reveals all and answers those doubting questions.
E. V.
Absolutely amazing. Staff helpful and pleasant. Very informative and exhibits are brilliant.
p. w.
Excellent!
I can't rate this display highly enough, what skill, what care, what beauty.
As well as highly educational.
Fantastic *****
j. p.
Fascinating! Not only do you get a great insight into what your "insides" look like you also learn lots about how your lifestyle affects both your physical and mental wellbeing!
M. J.
Was hoping to see more fat people but it was still cool seeing all the insides. Wish my biology class back in high school was more like this place
S. Y.
An interesting exhibition, very unique, although there are moral questions about commercializing the display of dead bodies, beyond the educational element.
M. L.
If you enjoy the Macabre and the science behind the inside of a human and what makes them tick, highly highly recommended unless your of a nervous disposition.
M. M.
What a fab place to visit. So so interesting! A bit pricey if lots of you are going so worth looking for vouchers.
M. E.
It's an incredible experience and so informative. I have been many times and now I go there to sketch the plastinates.
S. G.
The most fascinating amazing exhibition I have ever been to. Learnt a lot and very interactive.
J. J.
I don't like to see this things but once I was there I found very interesting and in the end I was amazed with everything
A. D.
Incredible experience. Loved the interactive exhibits. A must see!

Amazing experience. I highly recommend to everyone. Very interesting. Spent over 3 hours in there
P. A.
Great exhibition but some of it is looking a bit tired. Totally worth going. Unique experience.
D. C.
Incredible, very informative and wel wort BV a visit, that will take up at least 2 hours of you day.
E. K.
Eye opener, interesting, definitely worth a visit. Use your clubcard vouchers to book.
C. D.
Over priced but a very good exhibition. Went early so not crowded.
Staff exceptionally polite and friendly
J. G.
It's pretty good and is definitely different. There is a lot of content so allow a plenty of time to take it all in, probably close to three hours.
M. L.
Lots on display and very educational but in my opinion, overpriced as with most London attractions.
R. 4.
Amazing things I learnt about the human body was so great. Also established how I eat and the reasons I've made great changes.
A. M.
Good exhibition, really worth to see. Unfortunately you will be not allowed any bigger bags and locker is paid for.
M. E.
Very educational and engrossing.Highly recommened
A. M.
Highly recommended to people of all ages. It is an impressive exhibition and it worths every pence.
J. W.
Really enjoyed my visit to Body Worlds.
I found it very inforative and educational.
Well worth a visit.
H. C.
An awesome experience. Very interesting and educational. Not cheap entry but definitely worth it
S. K.
Interesting day, a little overpriced. Some fun activities as you go round, wonder if some of it could be a little more interactive
V. B.
Great experience to better understand the human body and have a view of how it looks everything under the skin. Good study day!
J. M.
Very respectful and professionally done. Very enjoyable and a experience that shouldnt be missed younge and old alike.
J. B.
Very interesting had an audio tour, need a couple of hours to complete the tour fully
M. B.
Amazing display of preserved bodies. A little creepy by the way, but perhaps that shows the eccentric genius behind it all.
P. A.
If you enjoy human biology and want to experience real bodies this is the place to go. You will learn a lot and the experience will remain for ever.
E. m.
It was such an interesting exhibition! A little bit creepy but a different way to understand our own body.
S. B.
Really interesting. What you see stays with you. Made me feel very unhealthy! I'd hate to see my insides!!!
M.
A fascinating way of educating the make up of the human body, the processes involved with preserving the specimens and creating the models
M. J.
Really interesting and cool exhibit! I learned a lot and am now motivated for a healthier lifestyle.
M. P.
I have been to a few Body Worlds expositions around the world and this is one of the better ones. Well put together and educational.
B. J.
Intriguing, educational and fascinating. What was a 2 hour visit ended up as a 4 hour stay.
M. P.
Great place to know better the human body. From a science teacher's point of view it is amazing!
A. S.
No photos allowed from inside the exhibit, but much better than I thought it would be, spent over 3 hours in there
D. C.
Very good academic exhibits, a couple hours needed to fully appreciate
M. t. B. G.
Amazing exhibition with so much information on the human body. If your interested how your body works you need to come see this
S. C.
Great exhibition, good value as you can spend a couple of hours in here!
F. M.
Great exhibition, not cheap but well worth the money for anybody who is interested in biology/the human body.
B.
3rd visit over the years and it gets better each time. Audio guide is a major improvement.
v. s.
It is Fascinating seeing the inside of the bodies, showing how they work. Its not Gruesome. It is worth a look.,
R. M.
I'm quite squeamish but it wasnt that bad its really fun and it's so cool we do cpr
A. A.
Exposition is very well done! A visit it's more than suggested.
Interactive activities during the visit
L. M.
Excellent exhibition - fascinating & informative, the kids enjoyed it too. Will certainly remember going here.
J. H.
Did this Christmas day and it was a great experience. Alot of important things to learn about the human body.
J. R.
Awesome place. If you like that sort of thing ( dead bodies). The wife was in awe at what was on show.
J. Y.
I have seen the show now four times in different places and think it's a must for every person on the planet. Can't praise it highly enough.
C. O.
It's a great place to visit if you have interest in human anatomy. However no photograph is allow.
A. A.
You can learn a great deal from all the different specimens on display, plus the interactive displays,
A. L.
Absolutely excellent, fabulous experience perfect for home educating, just brilliant what ever age
R. S.
A lot of information making it a bit heavy going but ultimately very interesting and well put together
D. D.
Very interesting indeed! Not really gory - more like a very graphic human biology lesson!
n.
Be nice if you could take photos but an interesting exhibit all the same
R. O.
Very informative, good selection of other things to do such as ststress tests and weighing machines.
R. G.
Really interesting exhibition. Fascinating to see the human body and what an amazing machine it is.
A. B.
Really good an exhibition. It's amazing to see everything in real. Lots of information as well. Highly recommended.
L. W. J.
It was thoroughly interesting until you got to a section full of dead babies, there were no signs or anything warning you and this was very triggering for me.
K. S.
Wow! so informative and educational my 13 year old daughter absolutely loved it.
J. W.
My partner took me and I had no idea what it was about.
Definitely go it will amaze you.
A. P.
Fascinating exhibition, very informative and makes the way the body works much easier to understand. Expensive but worth it.
F. D.
A mind-blowing experience. Although it felt a little creepy being in a room of dead bodies but we definitely learnt a lot about ourself.
M. L.
Interesting, not off putting at all, educational. Needs a cafe half way through to keep interest for second part!
A. I.
It was OK. Nothing too crazy. Worth seeing, but if you are weighting it up with something else, go for that ;)
J. F.
Amazing exhibit, easily can spend 4+ hours there
K. M.
Amazing exhibition, probably not for squeamish people but super interesting and tastefully displayed.
S. B.
It was really interesting finding out how our bodies work and what can happen to them if we do not look after ourselves.
e.
What I first noticed it’s very dark inside but once your eyes tune in it’s ok . There is one exhibit parents might not want children to see other than this is brilliant
E. R.
Absolutely amazing. Such a level of skill in presenting the work, and educational throughout.
A. R.
Not my cup of tea... interesting but also a bit scary... and the audio guide is a bit complicated...
D. A.
Great exhibit and helpful staff! I highly recommend going.
M. M.
Very easy to get there with the tube and very interesting. Also nice souvenirs :)
P. B.
Great day with the teenagers...great for the adults too. Certainly worth a visit.
D. K.
Very quirky but so interesting and informative. Definitely worth the visit
j. w.
Excellent displays and very educational. A little pricey, but ultimately worth it.
K.
Went with family over half-term.Very educational.Smaller than the Berlin Bodyworld
S. A.
An absolutely unique experience. Educational and fascinating, it was enjoyed by all ages.
L. A.
