the grandchildren loved this walk back in time and we loved the memories tah it invoked of having shopped at some of these places when we were children well worth a visit

Hull & East Riding Museum

Enter a world where 235 million years of history is brought to life. From majestic mammoths to Saxon invaders, visitors to the Hull and East Riding museum of archaeology can look forward to an experience that is unique, educational and fun. Walk through an Iron Age village, enter a Roman bath house and look at the stunning mosaics. Discover a mysterious crew of wooden warriors and see our horde of Viking treasure

We entered the museum through a little unassuming gift shop and found ourselves on a walk through time. The exhibits relate to the full history of the area from the age of the dinosaurs to medieval times and are excellent, flowing well and displayed in an interesting and informative manner. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would recommend to everyone.

A brilliant visual description of Hull's History. Well researched drawn and executed. Should be in a much more [prominent place and get more recognition!

Dinostar - Hull's Dinosaur Experience

Dinostar is Hull's Dinosaur Experience - an exhibition of dinosaurs and fossils from around the world. See, touch and smell dinosaurs, and build a volcano! Highlights include full-size T. rex and Triceratops skulls, dinosaur bones you can touch and an interactive sandbox. Dinostar is at the heart of the Fruit Market, Hull's creative quarter.

Great place to visit for any Dinosaur fan! We visited with 10 and 8 year boys, and it kept their interest for a good 75/90 mins. Plenty to see and do, both educational and fun and the sand pit was excellent! It was only £9 for 2 adults and 2 kids, which was great value and well worth it. We bought a couple of bits from the gift shop on the way out, but I did think there might be a few more bits/options available to buy? I'm pleased in a way as it would have cost me more money :) I think it's been going for 20 or so years from the newspaper cuttings on the wall (and I loved the junior football shirt hung up, which Dinostar sponsored from a local team - brilliant!), and I can see why. Definitely worth a visit for any Dino mad kids if you're in the area.
