Lots of reading and helps if you have a mathematical brain. Great to see how far computing has evolved in such a short time. Kids loved being able to play with some of the old computers towards the end and I enjoyed reading about women in computing throughout the ages. Took a couple of hours for us but if you have a real interest in learning about each piece could take a lot longer. Very small cafe area but great for a warm drink and snack.
Outstanding. I really enjoyed my experience here and the replica Colossus took my breath away! The collection of computers on display from all eras is absolutely unreal, and for £10 it's hard to miss. The staff and volunteers are wonderful and very knowledgeable, if you're in the area I would highly recommend giving the place a visit.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
Good range of computers and tech stuff through the ages. Have some old games you can play on as well. If visiting Bletchley Park on same day access to the NMOC is via a road up from Bletchley Park car park so you could effectively walk there or drive up and park there. There is money off entry if you have visited Bletchley Park.Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
One of the most interesting computer museums in the world with a lot of running machines. But the biggest thanks goes for the museum crew, who are capable, educated, emotional and will tell you all the finest details and history of every piece of technology presented here. 10/10
More extensive than I expected, the exhibits were brought alive by the guides. Excellent transition between the early computing/decryption exhibits. We didn't have time to be guided round the more recent exhibits Overall interesting, well presented, good value for an intelligent adult or a geek of any age. Probably less ideal for children.
This place is awesomely historic. If you have any interest in the history of cryptography, this is the place to go. The docents are very friendly and full of great knowledge, and can explain it even for my mind. The most important room was the Bombe which was built to decode the German enigma code. The docent/volunteer was awesome, he demonstrated and explained the theory and how it was eventually built, to how it ran and was maintained. I highly recommend this museum for anyone with interest in computer history or cryptography.
Worth the visit! We did the escape challenge and it was so much fun. Loved playing on all the old computers too. Really nicely maintained and the staff are really friendly!Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo wait
Highly recommended. The team here is incredible and so knowledgeable and will answer any questions. The live demos are great. It was so interesting and I learnt so many things. Thank you.Visited onWeekend
It's not what I would call a traditional museum. To get the most out of your visit, you speak with the volunteers who talk you through the history and use of these amazing machines. I highly recommend sitting with them and listening to their stories. For the low entrance fee, it is such an amazing experience.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYes
Absolutely outstanding! You can see a Bombe, a Tunny and a Colloseus OPERATING !!! Bletchley Park is Disney Land next to this museum yet I highly recommend to go there first to build some background knowledge. They have an amazing volunteer staff providing all context and explanation, they can break it down for both idiots e.g. me or nerds. They also have a follow-up sections on early computing as well as a more teenager section that explains the application of computing and internet breakthrough up to the 2010s. 10£ only.
