   We loved our visit here. The kids loved every minute spent at the Thinktank. There's so much to see... and so much to do. We didn’t get to see the whole place even though we spent almost 3hours here! Our visit here was definitely one of the highlights of the day. We will love to visit again.

   We had a very nice visit to the Thinktank Museum in Birmingham. It was a great place to spend quality time with family, with lots of interesting and interactive exhibits. Our 11-year-old son especially enjoyed it and was excited throughout the visit. Overall, it was a fun, educational, and memorable experience for all of us.

   Amazing place to visit for adults and children. My 2 year old loved it even at his age. Unfortunately the day was ruined by an abundance of rude school children that were totally out of control. I believe there was 3 schools visiting, surely it would make sense to close the site while the schools visit.

   The family had a great time at the Think Tank in Birmingham. Whilst there's quite a bit to see and do, some activities weren't available due to tech issues hence the 3 stars. We parked at the Millenium Point Car Park and it's literally less than a 2 min walk to the Think Tank. There is a cafe which serves hot food, hot beverages and bakery items. The planetarium show is definitely worth seeing and the kids loved it. Lasts 20mins which gives the kids a good break.

   Really great day out for all the family. Can get good discounts if you know where to look which makes it much more affordable. Loads to do. The outside water play part it especially brilliant for your kids. Planetarium comes at an extra cost but was good.

   Lovely day out with kids! Educational and very interesting for them. For me, as an adult as well to be honest. Lovely atmosphere, indoor picnic area so you are not pressured to buy overpriced unhealthy food. The science garden was an my daughter's favourite! Will be back again as it feels like there is so much we haven't explored.

   Amazing experience, its a really good place to spend some time with kids but being honestly we enjoyed as well. Three amazing floors shop and a small place to enjoy a coffee and something sweet. The outside garden is a really nice place for kids to exercise what the learned inside. Each floor is really well design to understand what s every machinery is doing having an interactive technology. I think the proper age for kids to understand something should be 7+ maybe more.

   Not as good or feature rich as it was 5-10 years ago. Would be more understanding if it was free entry maybe with the Planetarium being an additional fee or else getting the Planetarium free with your entry fee. It does not represent good value at all. What really soured my experience was the lift inside the main foyer (the outer building, not inside the Think Tank itself). They only built in 2 lifts which was marginal at the time but when I visited 1 lift was out of order and the other was impossible as it went from the lowest floor straight up to level 4 stopping at level 3 and by the time it arrived at level 2 where we were waiting it was completely full. This happened more than 5 times over 10 minutes before my disabled wife and disabled son had to use the stairs which wasn't easy for them. The stairs were hard to find without adequate signage to help. This was a weekday: Thursday 13th October around 2pm so hardly peak! They should have an accessible entrance without having to use the lift in the outer building and clearer signage for the stairs. They need a provision for when a lift is out of order. Given the Think Tank occupies 4 levels it feels as though they're internationally creating unnecessary bottlenecks and barriers. If people have an awful experience before they even get into the Think Tank they aren't going to have a nice day out!

   One of the day trips ever. Kids would enjoy a lot. Don’t miss the planetarium (just from £2.50 available from the desk on arrival) Allocate minimum 3-4 hours to enjoy the full scale of museum. On site parking available- from £3/hour.
