# Private Guided Tour of Natural History Museum - Skip the Line

**Guidekin's take:** Explore dinosaur fossils and skeletons at the Natural History Museum on a private tour for your party, with skip-the-line entry. Entry tickets and headphones if needed are included; pricing is per group and gratuities are extra. 4.93 from 41 reviews at €167 per group/vehicle for 2h.

## Overview

Skip the line to enter the museum and forget about big groups of strangers or running after a guide with a tight schedule leading a big group. Treat your family, your friends, your partner or just yourself with this PRIVATE tour. 

Explore the Natural History Museum with us. Learn about the main attractions of this institution: the Dinosaurs. We will see many fossils and skeletons of these creatures. The museums is not just about this, it also hosts galleries dedicated to minerals, volcanoes, earthquakes and much more.

We will learn about the Megatherium, the Ichthyosaur, the Mastodon, the Mantellisaurus, the Blue Marlin as well as Giraffes, because..why not?

We will experience an earthquake simulator, look at how Volcanoes are born and play with some physics experiments.

Pay a visit to the skeletons of Hope (Blue Whale) and the skeleton of Sophie (Stegosaurus), the two mascots of the museum. Have a look at a Sequoia section dating back more than 1500 years ago.
