  • Food is tasty, lovely staff, very family and dog friendly. Today we were lucky enough to be serenaded by an African band. There is a museum, cafe, children's play area, country walks and parking...

  • Thoroughly enjoyed visiting and learning about the great adventurer and his team. The museum has been newly renovated and is fully accessible. Staff are available if you have any questions and there is interactive learning along the way for the kids. Gift shop and cafe available after your experience. There is also a playpark outside for the kids and free parking.
  • Had a great day here with my Sister. I saw this place advertised on TV and I had been here many years ago. It is much improved with a lot of interactive activities. A great place to take children. It is quite hard to find though and could do with more sign posting. The play park round about David Livingstone Centre is amazing for children. The museum itself is very informative and gives an account of his whole life which is really impressive.
  • Myself and the kids had a fantastic time lots to learn for the young history buff there is a nice park out side for the young kids and a cafe what is not expensive so you can afford kids meals at $3.50 and tea and coffee etc is cheap what's not to love about a family day out
  • Really nice garden to walk around. I went into the coffee shop and had a nice lunch, the staff are very friendly and there is also plenty of parking
  • Really great place to visit... Margaret (volunteer) was great with son, explaining lots of things. The displays are all fantastic. If you love History, definitely a place to visit
