Description

Strat your journey by skipping the queue and entering the Natural History Museum. Meet your guide and set off on a 3 hour guided expedition into a world of ancient monster! Explore some of the museum’s most spectacular dinosaur specimens and uncovering the violent, mysterious and astonishing story of prehistoric life. 66 million years ago, a asteroid struck earth with the equivalent force of 100 million Hiroshima-sized bombs! The Earth changed forever. But before that final catastrophe, our planet belonged to creatures almost beyond imagination. For more than 160 million years, dinosaurs dominated the land and marine reptiles ruled the waves: they were hunters. They were giants. They were armoured warriors. They were monsters. And now, their bones are waiting for you inside London’s Natural History Museum. Stand before Tyrannosaurus rex. Look into the jaws of one of the most formidable predators ever to walk the Earth. Wonder at its enormous teeth designed to tear through flesh and crush bone. But T. rex was more than a giant killing machine. Your guide will reveal the latest discoveries about its senses, intelligence, hunting behaviour and relationship with its prey. What would it have been like to encounter one? There is nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide. We will face of one of Earth’s greatest predators. Encounter the enormous Diplodocus and discover how dinosaurs could evolve to astonishing sizes. How did these giants support their immense bodies? How did they feed? Learn about the wider prehistoric ecosystem and discover the extraordinary predators, marine reptiles and other ancient monsters that competed for survival. This was a world of teeth, claws, armour, speed and colossal strength. And your experience doesn’t necessarily end when you leave the museum. You’ll receive a free digital booklet containing additional information about the dinosaurs and the Natural History Museum. And if you think of a question later — you can still contact your guide by phone after the tour.
