"Well kept, useful information, jam packed full of equipment and vehicles. An immersive experience for adults and kids to enjoy! Each ticket is also valid for one year, pay once - visit as much as you like for 12 months. Coffee shop on site and fire engine rides around the local area. Amazing!"
"Excellent, it has something for everyone. It has the great scheme that you pay once and can return for free as much as you want for a year after. Our little one has her favourite bits such as the mountain rescue section and the additional fire engine ride. It has some good exhibits around the war, old fire engines, and several vehicles to get inside and look at. Staff are friendly, it is informative. I would go as far as to say that it's currently the best museum in Sheffield, its our daughter's favourite."
"I visited the National Emergency service Museum with a close friend a few weeks ago, we had a visit to see how throughout the decades the Emergency services across the UK developed and dealt with situations back then. It was lovely to see such vintage vehicles from throughout decades stored and cared for. It was a lovely visit and the staff was lovely and welcoming. Such an amazing time and took so many photos. Definitely worth a visit again in the future. Credit to the Staff. Kind regards Aaron."
"This is one of the best Museums for toddlers by far!!! Come on.. proper fire engines , proper ambulances etc all of which you can climb aboard and pretend to be a Paramedic or Fire Fighter or Traffic Cop!!! There's so much interactive stuff and my toddlers particularly enjoyed the virtual driving "game".. Older children will appreciate all there is on offer here too.. plus your first visit gets you in for a 12 month ticket.. so you can return as much as you like! Parking very close by , a great Museum!"
"Great visit at the national emergency services museum my little boy loved it. The ride in a real fire engine (£2 pp) made his day! Would love to return and look at exhibits again to fully appreciate it without little one pulling me around lol."
