DOMunder

It's a really good experience if you want to learn about the history of Utrecht from the very begging and you truely get to the bottom of the city. The guided tour was amazing and later the interactive experience with the flashlight and the beautiful graphics on the walls were a unique experience that I would recommend for all ages.

Train wreck When I did the Dom Tower climb in the morning, I saw people scrambling because they got misdirected for this activity. There I was later in the day told to wait in a certain area for the tour. It was wrong, and I, along with several others, we're scrambling. The guide then verbally attacked us for being late and then goes on how he is pressed for time toget the tour done so people can watch the soccer match. I was just as excited as any local, but we all traveled a long way for our trips. If it could not be done as we paid for, it should not have been done at all. The concept itself is absolutely outstanding but poorly executed. The introduction was a wealth of interesting information setting up the tour. Then you descend into the ACTUAL DIG! Here is where they have a short video, and then you go explore the dig with audio accompanying it. Thst is if you can find the triggers to activate the audio. The info was tremendous and told a great story. They were not easy to find till about 1/3 thru I mastered the system, but even then, it was hit or miss. At the end of it all, this was not a presentation to be rushed through, yet we were. Don't think anybody cared we were just rich tourists passing through.

Knowledgeable tour guides and interactive exploration of the archeological site immediately in DOMplein. Felt like using laser tag. An innovative way of getting people to pay closer attention to the exhibit.

Recommended 100%! As a young woman who is starting to see the world on her own, being in such a "museum" was really nice. I feel like I learnt quite a lot, but they managed to make it anything but boring. Moreover, this is not a conventional museum, which makes it a unique experience (and definitely worth it!). My congrats to the guide, who made an amazing job (sending you a hug from Asturias!) ❤️❤️

my friends and i LOVED it! it’s rare to find such fun & interactive museums and this is the one. it includes an excavation site tour where you get to explore the history behind Dom tower and Utrecht. but the best part of this tour are Peter and George, our tour guides. they were really friendly & resourceful. we also made the mistake of putting our bags in the domplein 9 lockers which close early. BUT they went so far to stay behind to help us get our stuff back! we were really grateful for them :-) thanks again peter and george!

Nice museum. One star less because of restricted time to spend- I didn't have enough time to see/listen to everything. And you can't stay longer. Big plus for free lockers. Cappuccino in cafe was cheap but not good. Staff is very nice and museum is worth seeing.

Utrecht has a rich history spanning 2000 years, and here you get a short, yet good introduction to that history while you can have a look around underground at some of the excavations. Highly recommended! Plenty to do in the area as well.

Very interesting tour with a great introduction. The staff was able to answer all my questions and explain everything in simple, understandable terms. The visit underground was very beautiful and informative. However, the time we got underground was too short. There is an audioguide, and I was not able to listen to all the clips before having to head out because the next group was coming. The total length of the underground time was shorter than the audioguide, so I missed like 30% of the info. Overall, I would give the introduction 5/5, but the underground experience 3/5.
