What travellers are saying
- Bernadette MCastle Cove, Australia380 contributionsI wandered into this museum strolling through Portobello.
What a find!
The historical society have done a terrific job of curating this. Lots of interesting and fun things to see and snap.
We spent at least half an hour here. And it wasn't even open!
Would love to come back when it's open.Written 27 January 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - Troy MWellington, New Zealand29 contributionsI loved this place as a kid, and it's nice to see all the work which has gone into it. Brilliant place to bring the kids to exploreWritten 17 July 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- Michelle1 contributionTook my daughter's to Quarantine Island with Port to Port cruises. Rachel was so accommodating, I booked one trip then completely changed my plans and Rachel was so awesome to deal with and switched everything for me without any hassle.
We had a great time at Quarantine Island and would definitely book another tour with the Port to Port team again.Written 3 May 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. - John MGeelong, Australia1,218 contributionsThe only reason this attraction has been marked "very good" instead of "excellent" is because of the renovations taking place that are temporarily hampering activity and display within. Still well worth a visit as these "Happy Hens" go all around the world.Written 23 April 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
- CathMitchSydney, Australia38 contributionsClosed at time of visiting, pulled over to ask about in the next door cafe. Got screamed at by someone from the studio as I had innocently and briefly parked across the driveway. Shame.Written 13 June 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC.
