Pick two of the South Ken three. The dinosaur hall is this one's spine. Next is Science Museum — do not also stack the British Museum the same day.
Analysis
Natural History Museum: two wings only. Last entry is about an hour before close (About 10:00–17:50). Leave a large case if there is no cloakroom, leave via South Kensington, and do not add another large museum the same day.
Best time
The first hour after opening
How to go
The South Kensington subway leads in
Transit
Tap contactless or Oyster at South Kensington. Last trains sit around midnight. After Natural History Museum closes, board there — do not cross districts for the last train.
Season window
Spring and autumn are easiest at Natural History Museum. Summer atriums and weekend crowds stack; in winter put the indoor rooms first, and do not count an outdoor court on a wet day.
Tips
- · Tickets: Permanent galleries free; some shows are extra. Plan about 100 minutes.
- · Weekend queues start outside; weekdays are the point
- · No flash and no tripods inside Natural History Museum. Drink water before security. Pushchairs follow that day's door notice.
