- Edinburgh's National Museum of Scotland is by far one of my favourite attraction in the city - and it's FREE! Spooky ancient artifacts, Picasso, visitors from outer space, clones: it has it all!
Today I'd love you to join me on this in depth tour of Edinburgh's most expansive museum so I can share my personal faves with you and also a whole bunch of practical info you should know before visiting.
Have you been to the National Museum in Edinburgh? What is your favourite object in it, or do you just love it all?

It's always fascinating to visit this museum. It's free, it's varied, and it's so large that you can keep coming back for more. What museums do you all like to visit?
Another awesome video. I've been to The National Museum of Scotland a few times as it's fab. Mind you, I had no idea they had so many sensory offerings for those that need assistance with that side of things so that is so great to see. Well done the NMS 👏👏👏👏
I love that the museum is free and has events it's very interactive and educational, great place to visit if you come to Edinburgh, I've been in the old museum before it got refurbished and remember the fish ponds and millenium clock being in the main hall
Brilliant vid on a building with an abundance of always-fascinating collections; I don't go often enough! Great views from the top, though I've never been up there when the weather's been pleasant. (Also, OH is jealous of Simon's backpack.)
Thank you so much for making these videos. We will be visiting in September 2024 and will definitely check this gem out. 💜
Definitely on my list to visit on my next trip to Edinburgh - hopefully next year!
I'm still salty over them changing the layout from when I was a kid. It used to have this charmingly uncared for vibe where you would wander through these passages and there were the dinosaurs, there were the stuffed animals. there were the Egyptian mummies and there was the spooky African dolls with the nails in them. Then they changed it all around and my brain still cant handle it! 😅
I love this museum, in fact I go there every week! Still haven't seen everything though! Personally, the newer building is one of my favourite buildings to be in in Edinburgh. It's just so bizarre and maze like that you can turn a corner or cross a little bridge and find a new place every time. It's like a TARDIS with how big it seems. But you never feel lost. Ingenious architecture.
Maybe you never get lost because you diligently visit every week! .D
I feel like it's only been recently for me that I started feeling well oriented there, especially in the new building - but at least I can feel like a truly useful guide whenever I drag someone over for the very first time!
Loved the video, this is one of my favourite places so it's great to see others enjoying it! Was a bit disappointed not to see much of ancient peoples basement, it's got some amazing highlights like our pictish stones and the ballachulish figure (the framing and lighting there is especially beautiful). It's always super quiet bc it's a bit more tricky to find and it's my favourite place in the whole museum
This is so embarrassing! And I guess also a great testament to just how huge the museum is. I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever been to that part of the museum, even though it is on the map 🫥
To funny as a teenager I was on those steps fully tipsy on vodka a very long time ago. Thanks for the memory. Now in Australia. Oh and did the school trips to the museum loved looking at the modern undated museum.
Its a great museum but touring it I ended up a bit dizzy as its so large and a bit mazelike! Fun video!
I also love the museum. It was always where you went if you were bored on school holidays (it was just along the street from my house) and now after watching your very informative film, I can say I’ll be there every day from now on as I spotted myself in the Proclaimers video in your film..! 😁
I LOVE museums! Thanks for taking us along for this one!!! (also, you're outfit is awesome!!! Love your style! ) Museums are one of my favorite things to do when visiting other cities or countries!
I've been a few times here before and after the refurbish (I know some of the koi were moved to Glasgow Botanic Gardens
We had a wonderful afternoon tea at the top with great views. There are all the regular exhibits and traveling ones. We saw the Celtic Gold exhibit. Worth several trips❤
We were there last year with my daughter, I caught up also Dr.Who's exhibition. My daughter loves it too. It is free, kid friendly and super interactive. After over 3 hours my daugther was tired after that, but great to see they have also things for autistic people and noise sensitive and so on. This is just great. Want to go again of course, we did not see all of it
Do you know the first kidney transplant in Europe was done in Scotland.
Wow... This hits a sweet spot in my mind! We visited the museum in 2022 and fell in love with it... 🤩 Really beautiful and super interesting, specially the Millennium clock!!!
Perfect! Video is essential viewing, really comprehensive. So happy for all the info on special needs access and support, and your highlights.
Mine would almost all of the Art, Design and Fashion galleries. Thanks!
I've been to the museum twice but had no idea about some of the sections and especially the terrace! I'll ha e to go again now 😊
That is shocking to me! As clear from the video, I always assumed everyone knows! 😱 Fingers crossed next time you make it to the museum the weather will be on point and visibility amazing!
@@Kakibot you learn something everyday 😛
Seen a LOT of videos about this museum. Best one yet. Thanks.
Loved visiting with you! Great video :)
I can’t wait to return. I missed this last time I visited. Great video!
🧡you 2 have been fantastic🧡🧡
Great video Kat! I've been there three times and haven't even made a dent in all the exhibits. And never made the roof either,,dang it!
❤❤❤❤awesomeness ❤ 😊thanks for letting us tag along 😊
As a young man, Trainspotting gave me the heebie jeebies to a much greater extent than Dolly the Sheep! As always, a terrific video.
Haha, yeah ok, you got me! Now that I'm thinking about it, as soon as I hit the (probably not quite appropriate) age to watch Trainspotting, it hasn't left me with the most balanced of mental states .DD
Dolly didn't give me the heebie jeebies at all, In fact I found her rather friendly, she would come when called and has eaten from my hand on a couple occasions - yes I'm one of those responsible for making her overweight. I always go and say hello to her when I go to the museum.
We missed this museum on our visit… I’ll have to go next time!
Thank you for adding the accessibility information… this is very helpful for me!
I'm so glad!
I've been to Edinburgh, I dunno, a half dozen times but never have gone here. Looks like I have been missing out. It's on the agenda for next time :)
SHOCKING!!! But: good to have such a huge attraction still stashed on the to-do list for future trips!
I'm visiting Edinburg this week and I'll get to visit this museum tomorrow! Thanks for the museum overview so I know what to expect.
Ooooh I bet you're gonna love it .) let me know what was your favourite bit! .)
We're visiting Edinburgh in late May and this will be toward the top of our list! I can't wait to feel like a kid again in this marvelous place full of wonders.
Did you get there? Hope you had a good trip 🏴
I have been in this museum.Its strange that is starts enter is in basement.But its nice museum to see.
See you in Sept October!!!!!
National museam of scotland wouldn't let a severely visually impiared person use a camera (with no flash) as a low vision aid , as recognised by RNIB ,& the macular society, so not a fan of their draconian policies
Le Corbusier was Swiss, not French.
Born in Switzerland, but got French nationality through naturalisation, you're both right
Best outcome, everyone's right! .D Although I do apologise for making the mental shortcut to "French name, French nationality".
