Akil Mayet
★★★★★3 months agoAmazing experience. The €10 entry fee is more than justified when you factor in that they even give you an audioguide to guide you round the museum and crypt. It's nicely laid out and follows a set path with the tour ending at the crypt. Top tip - buy direct from the museum. Getyourguide and Viator add their commissions and you don't need a guide as you get an audioguide anyways. I recommend to use their own website or just turn up at their opening times as the waits aren't too long

★★★★★2 weeks agoOne of the few places you have to pay to get in but its well worth the money! paid 8 euro and that includes a talking guide and headphones, The work that's gone on here is amazing, they also let you store your bags in a locker for free, I bought my ticket from the website as it was cheaper than buying on the door
