EPIC Indeed - A great and immersive experience through the different stages, aspects and real stories of those who emigrated from Ireland. The passport and stamping made the museum more engaging and a nice souvenir of the visit. You can spend a good hour and 30 minutes going round all the exhibits, the museum is a bit out of the way from the centre but worth the journey.

I loved it! - My family and I had a wonderful time! The name truly describes the experience, EPIC! You get a small passport to stamp at each room. It’s a wonderful souvenir.

really interesting for the whole family - Very interesting, after visiting Big Island in Canada this is only the beginning of the journey. Surprising to know how many public figures are of Irish descent

Average experience - Just an average experience. It featured around 20 rooms with interactive video screens but little beyond that. It doesn’t feel like a museum, as there are no significant artefacts or objects on display, but it’s also not quite an immersive experience either -it sits awkwardly in between. There was a missed opportunity to create something more creative and engaging, such as bringing the famine to life, depicting conditions on board the ships, recreating arrival at Ellis Island etc etc

Too many screens, not a typical museum experience. - This exhibition consists of mainly touch screens and videos. There are very few objects of interest. The same information could be viewed on a website.
