About this outing
Inspired by Jules Verne’s 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, Voyage to the Deep invites children aboard the Nautilus to use a periscope, play Captain Nemo’s Bubbly Pipe Organ, dress up and explore larger-than-life underwater environments. This temporary exhibition runs until 1 November 2026, 10:00–17:30 with last entry 16:45, on the lower ground floor.
