We are planning on visiting at the end of May. It looks like they want you to pre book time slots for the special exhibits and I’m trying to plan how The wildlife photographer is on level 3 centreblock The Great Whales exhibit is on level B2,Garfield Weston Hall What would be the best plan for 2 adults and 3 teens? Main Entrance and do the main level first? Or should I book the time slots for our arrival time, then go back and look at everything else Is anyone experienced with the layout and know how long the main level takes? It adds so much more pressure to book two time slots when they are not close together and I don’t know how long each one will take Please help, I’d really appreciate it!
