Booking was very easy. We arrived and, without waiting in any lines at all, the girl at the door welcomed us using just our booking number. We paid for the audio guides and enjoyed the exhibition of machines invented by the genius Leonardo da Vinci.

Thanks to the Headout app I was able to book my tickets for the DaVinci museum in Rome and see the models of his inventions and touch them and see how they actually worked.

We had a wonderful time at the museum dedicated to Leonardo da Vinci. We were able to pick up our tickets easily on-site thanks to a pre-registered list, which was very convenient. The venue is beautiful, well-explained, and especially engaging for children thanks to the models they can interact with. The explanations available in French are also very helpful and make the visit accessible. It’s also the least crowded place we’ve visited in Rome, which allows you to fully enjoy the exhibition. One small downside: the “gift” advertised as a freebie is a postcard, which isn’t very suitable for children.

This was a great museum and learned so much about all the accomplishments of Di Vinci. The other nice thing is it was not crowded and you could spend as much time as you like without feeling rushed. Would highly recommend.

The museum was small but full of interesting displays. It was not crowded or overwhelming like many of the bigger more touristly sites in the city.
