We walked into Museum Island not really expecting too much but very quickly did we realise how attention grabbing and full of sights this place would be. Home to a number of museums and galleries suc… Full review by tomj932

Museum Island is a wonderful island on the River Spree that's a must go destination if you're planning a holiday to Berlin. The island is famous for its great museums hence the name Museum Island, P… Full review by NeilKelly77

We thought we could do everything here in one day, but we were wrong. All the museums were so interesting, we lost track of time! Still worth it, though. Lots of great art and history to be found her… Full review by Meredith H
I'm a big history buff and excited to make Museum Island a big highlight in my upcoming trip to Berlin. I'm trying to get my head around how much time to allocate to each for planning purposes. Are all of the museums a similar size? Or are some much smaller than others? I'm more familiar with museums like the British Museum and the Metropolitan, so trying to gauge my expectations of time needed based on the couple of days I spent at each of those.
A:
Probably allow at least 1 hour for each museum. I liked the Egyptian museum the best although I have visited the Cairo Museum so lots of duplicates. Although I didn't have time …
Probably allow at least 1 hour for each museum. I liked the Egyptian museum the best although I have visited the Cairo Museum so lots of duplicates. Although I didn't have time to visit all of the museums, it felt like they were all similar in size but offer different things.
Hi, I am an older adult and my fiend is older than me. I am not sure that we could do the museums on the island but I wondered if there is a boat trip that goes around the island?
A:
Sorry for the late reply...Yes, there are many boat tours of the Spree river. We did not take on, but next time we are in Berlin, we are planning on doing a boat tour.
I will be in Berlin from October 14th to 20th. Which parts of the museum will be closed? The Pergamon mus, The temple of Ishtar? Are the Ancient Near East galleries open? How about Old National galery and Old (Greek, Roman, Etruscan art) museum? The info about what is and is not open is very murky. I appreciate your help.

It’s hard for me to answer about the days and time. In Germany, this was one of two things that I critically didn’t like: the wild disorganization of sights (several places on the same network on a single ticket can work on completely different days, and they won’t tell you about it). So here I am not an adviser. ... I agreed to answer the question on another occasion: I advise on the "museum island" to ask about such a thing as a brochure with all the museums and addresses, and they can tell you about such a tourist ticket like... there is something like 3 days to ALL museums of Berlin for 33 euros.
