Rudest people ever

I got approached at the door of this museum by the staff member Karolis where he said to me “ you can buy a ticket or go home” never been treated this way before for no reason. I was having my coffee outside the museum and asking questions to two other members. I understand you have to delegate tasks to your team but don’t treat people with Disrespect.
That’s bad leadership
Who trained these people?
Shame on you

Don't miss this!

Friendly and informative staff from the start, great exhibition, well laid out, fun and educational. Set out over 6 floors and lots to see. Also very thought provoking. Its called the Hapiness Project and it highlighted the world we live in today, our society, our way of thinking etc and challenged what has now become the norm for us. Lots of interactive bits to it too. I loved it, good value for money.

Well, where do I start?

Most importantly, the staff were extremely helpful (and good looking).

To be fair I have to give just a small special mention to Bodyworks best staff member, Pien. After receiving the results of my health tests, Pien went out of her way to help me. As a person who suffers greatly from dyslexia, being unable to read, write or form sentences correctly can sometimes be embarrassing to say the least. But after explaining my condition to Pien, her understanding and caring nature was really appreciated. I'm going to go out on a limb now in saying that Pien is the most overworked and underpaid staff member in all of Bodyworks (and all of Amsterdam). When I heard that she was only getting paid €100 an hour for the absolute toil, slog and graft she puts into her work, my jaw almost hit the floor in shock. Even though the results of the test didn't go in my favour (type 2 diabetes), I took great refuge in Piens reassurance that it's not about how big you are, it's about how big your heart is 🥰

Another thing. The older balder gentleman (the auld baldy lad) who likes gardening, was also very friendly and helpful. His charisma and charm were out of this world. I thought at first he must be Irish!

Overall, I was blown away by the experience.. in the lobby at the ticket desk. And would highly recommend it to anyone. The actual tour itself; I couldn't tell you a thing about it. I think it's about bones or something.

Underwhelming

I have been to a few Body World exhibits around the world and found this one quiet small. Lot of attention on some body systems and not a lot on others.

We visited Body Worlds for the first…

We visited Body Worlds for the first time recently, and arrived at opening time. We were warmly greeted by Arjen, and talked through some basic instructions. There are lockers available (which I didn't realise till AFTER our visit!) so you can safely place your things without carrying them around. You then take a lift to the 6th floor and start working your way down. The exhibits are marvellous and macabre - it's not often you see these parts of the human body without them being surrounded by moist and sticky things. The detail and explanations are incredible, and VERY informative. Each floor has a different 'theme' of the exhibition, and the work on show is incredible. You can even take your blood pressure, and the self body scan at the end is very enlightening! For anyone interested in human anatomy I cannot recommend this enough, and Arjen is a delight to talk to.
