Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. Some information about the history and times of the town. Ideal for families. Good for an hour stop before the tunnel A lovely museum with great presentations and friendly staff. The longboat 'journey' is worth the entrance on its own and my daughters enjoyed the experience and finding out some local history. Highly recommended I'm not even sure if I want to give it 4 stars, it should be 5, and it's not management's fault. But with the corona rules in place we couldn't touch the items we could have. They have interesting and in-depth information useful to my history-buff partner and enough child friendly activities for my active 3.5 year old. If you have an hour or two to spare before heading back to the Eurotunnel and you have kids, you couldn't find a much better place for them to have fun and learn a little history along the way. There's lots of hands on things for to do from dressing up in viking costumes or as Henry VIII to playing old style games. This was a very interesting trip! Not a very big place but the loved getting hands on and trying on the outfits and playing the games! The boat was fab too End of our holiday, camped up and stumbled upon this place and it looked shut. Had a go at the door and what a little gem of a place to while away a couple of hours. Couldn't buy an aperol spritz for what they charged entrance fee. Fantastic staff put our fresh cake in the fridge while we did the tour. Interesting for and adults alike. History of Guines from viking times Kept us entertained while we wait for tunnel crossing tomorrow. A great little town museum. Very friendly welcome in English. Interesting exhibits on the Field of the Cloth of Gold and a great video/film on the Viking origins of the town The good: Fun place to visit, also with kids. Dress up in medieval clothes and playing old games is cool. Very helpful and friendly staff (which is why I gave 4 stars instead of 3). The bad: not a lot of stuff to see. Some games, a documentary film, walking around the the tower, 10 minutes of looking at old clothes and weapons and that's it. You could probably do it in under an hour. Still, if you're near and have kids, worth a visit Website change monitoring Monitor any webpage for changes – get instant email alerts when prices drop, new jobs are posted, products come back in stock, or competitors update their sites.
